Is it worth watching?  Is it fake TV reality drama?
I could prolly search and DVR it. I’m really not a big TV show guy. I watch Caps hockey and movies and occasionally cabin masters or some Alaska home building and How it’s Made but I despise reality TV


I find it interesting, it's not the normal scripted "reality show". I can't stand those, refuse to watch them. They are honestly chasing history here, allbit a tad ham fisted. They didn't start using trowels until recently

I like the talent based reality shows.  Strictly, Bake Off, Drag Race, Masterchef.

Just finished watching the replay.  That was an awesome game to watch.  Caps played a full 60 minutes.  Who knew they could?    Sammy was incredible early on and saved our bacon.  Ovi with two milestones. Vrana with a sweet pass to Backstrom.   Panicked a little in the 3rd waiting for the collapse that never came.  Let’s Go Caps!

Ever been to Nova Scotia?  I have. Went as a “very” [size=78%]young adult. Very pretty and the bluest water I ever saw. Went with the wrong girl though (but she was my wife at the time) Made the trip not so fun. Got attacked by some nesting turns (I think). Met some cool Canadians including a transplant from North Carolina[/size]
Also nearly starved to death looking for a place to eat. Not a lot on the Cabot trail, but if you do your diligence and go prepared it is very beautiful. Saw me some whale (my first), moose and very nearly hit a wolf with a rental car in the early morning

I cooked that tuna Saturday. Grilled on the grill. Did it pretty good. Did not over cook it. Seasoned it 3 different ways. Cajun, lemon pepper, garlic. Pretty good. Fed 6 of us (3 of which are active teenage boys) . It was a damn big steak. I was a little worried about cooking it in one piece 


And I asked again and it was 550lbs (not 650) 102” long. Took them 3 hours to bring it in. Outer Banks, NC

those rolls were already filled and I'm not sure he's going to be here long enough to earn it from someone else


The Bruins screwed up letting him go

     That was a well played game. Too bad Sammy lost his shutout on that cheap penalty call.
    Sammy was good tonight.




Well, in reality he lost it on a freak deflection off a defenseman's stick - nothing Samsonov could do about that.  That can happen any time, regardless of the manpower situation.  That's why I don't get excited about goalie shutouts/non-shutouts.  Hockey is a game of a thousand little subtle, often unintentional incidents.  The vast majority don't affect the game's scoring, but most games there is at least one where the puck just happens to "go wrong in a good way/bad way" and scoring results.  In reality, Samsonov "deserved" a shutout last night -- he made some great saves, and was solid all night.  But .....


Well, so much for Tom Wilson being the indispensable heart and soul of the team.  This seems to happen with the Caps all the time.  Their actual performance versus what "seems predictable" is often so random.  When he returns, they'll probably say "well, our energy bunny is back", relax, and go on a losing streak.  I wonder to what extent the current winning streak is the team saying "we have to buckle up our chinstraps and suck it up while Tom is gone"?
