2013 Fantasy Football Guide in Memes

Back in the good ole' days, too much summer time was wasted channel to channel. I'm talking before you could just hit the "Guide" button on your remote and have access to all your channels and see what was playing when. If you misplaced your TV guide or didn't want to wait on the scrolling guide page, it was just *click* *click* *click*. That's what summer sports viewing is for non-baseball fans: *click* *click* *click*, trying to find the next repeat of "Saved By The Bell". Just waiting for football season to start. Thanks to this invention called The Internet, now summer downtime is spent online and too many hours, for someone like myself, going through memes. So while I wait for kickoff to the 2013 NFL Season, it's also time to start preparing for the Fantasy Football Season. The only logical thing to do then is to combine the 2 passions. Welcome to the 2013 Fantasy Football Guide in Memes

Why Buying Out Alex Burrows Makes Sense

I know right?!? You’re already disgusted. You love Alex Burrows. But hear me out on this.

Forget a rock and a hard place; the Canucks are laid out on a torture table having their limbs extended in difficult positions with their current cap situation. 17 players signed, no 3rd or 4th line centre and according to Capgeek  a mere $47,222 to pull it off. Oh and still needing to sign restricted free agent defenceman Chris Tanev.

No Mans Land

This isn’t about if the fit is right or wrong. That won’t be determined until we see the results because the sporting world is a results based industry. Win a cup and keep your job; don’t win a cup... thanks for the memories but you need to find new work (See: Alain Vigneault firing). John Tortorella has become the 17th Head Coach in Vancouver Canucks history. And now, much like Roberto Luongo at a poker tournament, this Canucks core and management has declared that they are going all in.
