I Hate to Say I Told You So..
Anyone who ever says that is a cocky liar. That said:
The Ryan Smyth Saga – June 21, 2011
[Brad] Richards will sign with either New York or Toronto (with Buffalo and Montreal as dark horses) for over $7 million/year and over 5 years. Lombardi may be in the fold, but he will not offer the amount of years or dollars that others will. He will probably sign [another] name to a one year deal and they will disappoint greatly.
OK so it was a 9-year, $6.67MM deal. But it was the Rangers. And then Lombardi signed Gagne, which was a signing I actually really liked. His injury made the signing somewhat of a disappointment but it actually made the Jeff Carter deal a necessity. Things happen for a reason, I suppose.
The Richards Reaction – June 25, 2011
It couldn't be more improbable that Mike Richards coming to the Kings is so bittersweet, as Mike Richards has always been one of my favorite non-Kings. Easy for me to say now, right? Here's proof from three months ago:
Zach Parise will remain there until someone else scores a goal that earns the U.S. an Olympic gold medal. Though 'Clitter', as he is known by his teammates, is definitely making his presence felt.
Thus, the fact that I'm not so excited I'm camping outside of Staples Center for the first home game on October 18th is somewhat perplexing. I guess this has to do with the possibility of what Brayden Schenn can become. He could be a stud. He could be a superstar. But the more I reason with myself, I realize that the odds of Schenn becoming a better player than Richards are less than favorable, strictly based on percentages, so if I'm Dean Lombardi I make that deal every single time.
Still, that slim chance is present in the back of my mind, like a spider that crawls under your bed, knowing that one day it could crawl out and bite me. Whenever Schenn starts to light it up on the the big stage, every goal he scores will be like a punch to the gut of every Kings fan.
But I have come to this realization: if Mike Richards can somehow help the Kings win the Cup, it will exterminate the bugs.
I sure wish I phrased that last sentence better, so that I wouldn't have to include that whole back-story and quote it as the ridiculous metaphor it is. It sounded good at the time.
The Darryl Sutter Situation – December 13, 2011
Today, after reading everything and anything I could find on the Kings coaching situation, I became nervous about the thought of Darryl Sutter as the Kings new head coach. Sutter seems to be everything that Terry Murray was except angrier.
Same focus on defensive hockey. Same old school mindsets. Even worse grimace.
So.. that wasn't so impressive. Thankfully I did end the article with:
Whoever Lombardi appoints, even if its pterodactyl face, we should assume that he is the best person for the job.
We'll call that one a draw.
I'm Really Starting to Like This Darryl Sutter Guy – January 18, 2012
Some other things that I like that Sutter has done:
- Benching Kevin Westgarth regularly– From everything I've read or seen, Westgarth is a great guy, a great teammate, and works his ass off. But, as I've said before, his role is simply not needed.
- Getting everyone in the special teams mix– he has been throwing all lines in on the power play in spurts, and putting just about everyone out on the penalty kill. This boosts players' confidence and, as mentioned in the principle point of this article, gives the top players more rest.
The bottom line is- this team is playing for him, and they are starting to put together an identity. It still looks like they play down to bad teams and up to good teams, but for some reason I get the feeling that the days of faltering after success are over. No more losing streaks after winning stints; no more choking with a 4-0 lead. At least I hope.
If this guy, the one we all were so reluctant to let take the reins of our beloved team, is the one to keep this team focused and guide them to what they are supposed to be, it doesn't matter if he reminds me of incoherent Sylvester Stallone.
Obviously I didn't say or ever think, "Sutter will take this team to a Stanley Cup championship." I'm not Latoya Jackson.
The Ballad of Dustin Penner – February 18, 2012
But in seriousness, Penner has a chance to turn a page and start a new chapter in his career tonight. Yes he'll be on the fourth line, but we (his coaches and fans) just need to see that he cares. Throw some checks. Block a shot or two. I mean, ideally, score a goal. But if not, at least work hard, like Sutter said. Then, keep doing it. Keep working. We need you.
Sutter also eludes to the fact that there are two directions this story can take. It's Penner's choice which word goes before 'Ballad':
'Horseshit' or 'Inspirational'.
One direction will cause our collective head-shaking grimace; the other, our compliments to the chef.
Well done, Pancakes. Well done.
Here is What is Going To Happen – February 20, 2012
Major shakeup:
Trading some or all of players like Dustin Brown, Jack Johnson, or another part of what has been labelled as 'the core' in a package to acquire an elite-level goal scorer like Rick Nash.
- Likely result: mixed emotions from fans. Whoever it is will experience a decline compared to their career average PPG, but may still help the Kings' GP60. There is no single player that can make the Kings score over 2.50 GP60 for the remainder of the season. Thus, it will likely be looked at as a failed transaction unless it somehow causes the Kings to get to the Stanley Cup Finals. Likelyhood: 25%.
I really didn't think Lombardi was going to make a move as substantial as the Jeff Carter deal, hence the 25%. And I was wrong about one player not making the Kings score over 2.5 goals per game, as they averaged 3.0 after the trade. It's hard to know for sure if the last sentence is true or not, but speaking honestly, the trade likely would be labelled successful even if the Kings lost to Vancouver.
Thus, Nash will probably be a Blue Jacket on February 28. Jeff Carter? Likely not. They'll be willing to move him for a decent prospect and a draft pick. I just hope that offer isn't coming from the Kings. Though having a reasonable cap hit compared to his potential, with 10 more years left on the deal and about two and a half left on his knees and shoulder, his contract is as much as a liability as his bar tab. I really think the Kings could find a better option.
Well. Partly accurate I guess. I often like when I'm proved wrong.
Here is one statement I'm proud of:
Don't Look Now: Kings Claim Best Record in NHL – October 28, 2010
Jonathan Quick is the best goaltender in the NHL.
Of course I heavily qualified that statement immediately after since I was making it two years ago, but I saw glimpses of what many now say to be true. Did I think he'd win the Conn Smythe this year? Hell no. But I'm not surprised to see the Vezina nomination in the least.
Looking back, this little mash-up is pretty damn enjoyable as well.
Los Angeles Kings 2011-2012 Season Teaser Trailer
Remember those Inception 'mashup' videos from last summer?
This idea is kind of a rip-off from those, using the Girl With The Dragon Tattoo teaser trailer. Though, in essence, aren't all 'mashups' a rip-off of something?
Please enjoy.
Thanks to everyone for reading. What a spectacular season it has been.

I don't think you even needed to include the GwtDT clips, just the tune and the KINGS clips were perfect. Nice job.

My friend thinks I have a drinking and drug problem. What should I do?
- Taylor*
Using alcohol or drugs regularly is usually just a step away from addiction (where you depend on these substances to feel good or get through your day).
Here are a few warning signs that someone may have a substance abuse problem:
It's usually hard for people to recognize they have a problem, which is why friends or family often step in. Quitting is hard to do, and many people find they can't do it without help. The best thing you can do is to talk to someone you trust — preferably an adult who can support you — so you don't have to deal with your problem alone.
Lots of resources are available for people with substance abuse problems. Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous offer information and recovery programs for teens. The Alcohol and Drug Information hotline is (800) 729-6686.

In the history of our great state, few investments have paid off as handsomely as the Georgia Dome, which forever changed the landscape of our state. Before its construction, Atlanta had never hosted a Super Bowl, lacked a major event venue and hadn't hosted a Final Four since 1977, when the event was played at the Omni.
Since opening in 1992, the Dome has hosted two Super Bowls, the annual SEC Championship, the Chick-fil-A Bowl and, come this April, three Final Fours, not to mention the concerts, crusades and conventions that also attract tourists from around the world. And, let's not forget the most defining moment in Atlanta's sports history, the 1996 Olympic Games. The Dome was a missing piece of the puzzle that enabled us to land the Olympics.
In total, the Georgia Dome has returned $10 billion in economic impact to the state of Georgia. Not bad for an investment of a little more than $200 million. Our willingness to make that investment paved the way to more than two decades of success and opportunity.
Now the Georgia World Congress Center Authority is focused on plans for a new stadium on its campus in downtown Atlanta. As the Atlanta Falcons approach the end of their lease at the Georgia Dome, the Authority is thoughtfully planning for a stadium that will not only serve the long-term needs of their most important tenant, but also makes sure the GWCC holds its competitive edge in attracting high-profile sporting events, concerts, conventions and other events far into the future
In order to repeat the financial success of the Dome, I think it is important that we understand how and why it came into existence.
When I was lieutenant governor, we knew we needed a large-scale venue in downtown Atlanta, but were struggling to find a way to pay for the construction of the project. Back then, the Falcons' lease with Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium was expiring and the team was hinting at moving out of the state. Led by John Aderhold, the chairman of the Georgia World Congress Center Authority, a plan was created to build a new domed stadium and keep the Falcons in Atlanta.
A public-private financing plan was put together, but ultimately crumbled as the economy bottomed out in the fall of 1988. The private sector was struggling to hit its fundraising goal, and the city of Atlanta realized it couldn't finance any part of the construction. We were forced to find another way to get this project done.
That's when Atlanta agreed to try a new approach – a penny hotel-motel tax increase that would be allocated for the Dome. The idea was that those who came into the city for the events at the Dome could help pay for the facility that drew them here. The city and state enthusiastically agreed, removing the private sector from the equation entirely.
Today, we have a better deal on the table.
The proposed new stadium would give us a state-of-the-art, modern facility that will be built in a public-private partnership that, when adjusted for inflation, includes a public investment that is less than what was put up for the Dome all those years ago. The private investment, about two-thirds of the total cost, will total approximately $700 million. In addition, the private sector – namely, the Falcons – will shoulder the risks of stadium construction cost overruns, as well as stadium operations and capital expenditures risks. This relieves Georgia of the risks they currently incur at the Dome.
Based on the Georgia Dome's track record, the return on the state's investment in a new stadium will be more than significant.
There is no doubt the Georgia Dome has proved its worth. Our focus now is on whether we will continue to be recognized as the sports capital of the South and a premier tourist destination. Is it worth a $300 million investment for a $1 billion dollar asset that will be owned by the state and publically funded by a hotel-motel tax that is paid for by tourists, not residents?
I say "yes." The time has come to cast an eye to the future. This is a great deal for all of Georgia, and we can't afford to pass it up.
Zell Miller was the 79th governor of Georgia and served as a U.S. senator from 2000 through 2005.

of Fair Play
All players participating in CoedSportsla
events are expected to follow the following guidelines regarding fair play:
1. Players
will always play by the rules and in the spirit of the game.
2. Players
will respect their opponents.
3. Players
will control their temper.
4. Players
will show appreciation for good plays/performance, those of their team and of their
5. Players
will remember that winning isn't everything, that having fun, improving skills,
making friends and doing their best are as important.
6. Players
will never argue with an opposing player when he or she calls a foul or a rule
violation. If a player disputes a call, he will let the game moderator make the
final decision and abide by the moderator's decision.
- Zero Tolerance
1. CoedSportsLA has a Zero Tolerance Policy
regarding fighting. Any action taken by a player which is deemed an
attempt to intentionally harm another player, spectator or anyone associated
with CoedSportsLA will not be tolerated. Such actions may include, but are not
limited to attempts to punch, head butt, kick, choke, push to the ground, knock
to the ground, or throw objects at another player, spectator or anyone
associated with CoedSportsLA.
2. Any player who attempts to intentionally
harm another player, spectator or anyone associated with CoedSportsLA will be asked
to leave the premises and will be banned from future CoedSportsLA events for two
3. Any player who is successful in intentionally
harming another player, spectator or anyone associated with CoedSportsLA will
be banned from any future CoedSportsLA events for life and their actions will immediately
be reported to law enforcement.
4. Actions
taken by a player solely to defend him or herself, or defend someone else, from
imminent harm will not be deemed to be in violation of the Zero Tolerance
Policy, as long as the defensive actions taken are immediately terminated once
the threat of harm has ended.
As can happen from time to time, players can
become passionate while participating.
Players must understand that during the
course of a game, one player may unintentional cause harm to another. For
example, during basketball, one player may accidently strike another with an
elbow while attempting to retrieve a rebound. During soccer, one player may
accidently knock down another player while trying to retrieve the ball.
Also, a player may passionately believe that an
opponent has committed a violation with disregard to another player's well-being.
Such passion, however, can never be allowed
to escalate into any type of physical altercation; therefore, the following
rules shall apply to all CoedSportsLA events:
1. At
all CoedSportsLA sponsored events; there will be at least one CoedSportsLA
moderator who will be in charge of signing players in and collecting game fees,
if applicable.
2. During
the event, the moderator has the final word regarding the rules, the play of
the game and any other issues that may relate to the event.
3. Should
any player have any complaints regarding the event itself or fellow players,
he/she is to notify the moderator immediately.
4. It
may occur during the course of a game that two or more players may start to
make disparaging/insulting remarks to a teammate or opponent. Such
disparaging/insulting remarks are considered a violation of the Rules of
Fair Play.
5. It
may occur during the course of a game that a player may start to push/shove a
teammate or opponent, either in violation of the rules of the sport being
played, in retaliation for a perceived violation of the rules of the sport
being played or due to the fact that this player is simply a jerk. Such pushing
or shoving is considered a violation of the Rules of Fair Play.
6. Should
the moderator conclude that the violations of the Rules Of Fair Play, described
in the previous two paragraphs (paragraphs 4 & 5), could potentially
escalate into a situation where someone could be harmed, the moderator has the
authority to immediately stop the game and warn the offending player to stop
the violation or risk being removed from the game.
7. Once
the offending player has been warned, if he or she continues the violation, the
following will occur:
a. Disparaging/Insulting
i. If the
offending player continues to make disparaging/insulting remarks, the moderator,
if he believes it is warranted, MAY have
the offending player sit out a portion of the event until the moderator
believes the offending player will no longer make such remarks. If the
offending player refuses to sit out the event as instructed by the moderator,
he will immediately be asked to leave the premises.
ii. Players are
not allowed to make any types of threats of physical violence against an
opponent or teammate. If the offending player continues to make
disparaging/insulting remarks and the remarks are deemed a threat, either
through words or physical gestures, the offending player WILL BE removed from the event and instructed to leave the premises.
iii. If the
offending player refuses to leave the premises, he or she will be considered a
trespasser and law enforcement may be contacted in order that the offending
player can be removed from the premises.
iv. Please note
that CoedsportsLA shall deem any threats made against a participant, or anyone
associated with CoedsportsLA, as serious and such threats may be reported to
law enforcement.
b. Pushing/Shoving
i. If the offending player continues to push
or shove, the offending player will
be removed from the event and instructed to leave the premises. If he
or she refuses to leave the premises, as instructed by the moderator, he or she
will be considered a trespasser and law enforcement may be contacted in order
that the offending player can be removed from the premises.
becoming a member of CoedSportsLA, you agree:
1. To
abide by the Rules of Fair Play.
2. To
abide by the Zero Tolerance Policy regarding fighting.
3. To
allow any disputes that may occur during the course of an Event to be decided
by the Moderator in change of the Event.
4. If
you disagree with the decision of the Moderator, you will abide by the decision
at the time it is rendered and contact CoedSportsLA via e-mail to address your

If you are unsure as to why you would need a cookbook exclusively committed to the art of sandwich making, take a step back. Name five vegan sandwiches that are your "go to" sandwiches. (Daiya grilled cheese and PB&J don't count!) Stumped? VSSTD contains more than 100 sandwich and sandwich-ish recipes, with unique and intriguing names and flavor combinations, like peanut butter banana bacon sandwiches, pan bagnat and portobello po' boys.
Currently on a gluten free diet? No problem. All VSSTD recipes that are or that can easily be made gluten free are clearly marked. Want to make your own bread? There are five stellar bread recipes included within. Short on time? Recipes that take 30 minutes or less are marked as well. Need to get your sandwich from point A to point B with no fuss? Sandwiches that are good for traveling are all conveniently indicated throughout the book. Celine and Tami have clearly thought of everything.
In addition to being supreme sandwich aficionados, Tami and Celine are probably two of the nicest vegan authors out there! I was excited to have the chance to virtually sit down with both of them and ask a few behind-the-scene questions I had about VSSTD as part of their current blog tour:
How did you decide to come together to write a cookbook specifically about vegan sandwiches and what were some of your favorite aspects of putting the book together?
Tami: Celine and I had been friends online for several years. We met through our blogs around 2007, if memory serves right, and were chatting back and forth via occasional emails and blog comments. I was antsy to start working on another book and thinking through favorite meals when I had the sandwich idea. I just floated it to Celine and was thrilled when she was as enthusiastic as I was! When we partnered up on VSSTD, Celine and I worked together seamlessly, to the point it was almost freaky. We're both always open and eager to hearing each other's ideas.
Our strengths and weaknesses also complement each other quite well. For example, I have a knack for creating sandwiches based on seitan, tofu, and tempeh, where Celine is more at ease with vegetable-based fillings and baked goods. I think the fact we worked together so easily comes across in the book.
Celine: For me, the most interesting and exciting thing about writing that cookbook beside developing the actual recipes was to build the list of potential recipes, making sure we'd have enough variation to please everyone, and also coming up with new concepts that haven't already been done in other cookbooks.
How was having a co-author different from working solo?
Tami: Working with a partner is the absolute best. You've got a built-in sounding board, second brain, support system, and reality check. If any ideas fall short, two of us work on the improvements, which usually spurs other ideas, creating other recipes. It's like rolling down a hill and so much fun!
Some of my favorite recipes in this book are your Peanut Butter Banana Bacon Sandwiches and the Retro KFC-Style Sandwiches. How did you come up with amazing concoctions like these and what are some of your other favorite recipe in the book?
Tami: I did the Retro KFC, which is a mock-chicken sandwich, with breading similar to KFCs. More than 30 years ago, we were eating at a KFC and I had their chicken sandwich. It was the last meat that I ever ate. When I took a bite, I had the realization that I was eating the flesh of another animal. I hated the idea that an animal had to die for me to survive and quit eating the sandwich (and all meat) then and there. Because of that, this vegan version of the sandwich holds a special place in my heart. I also really like the sandwiches that Celine and I worked on together, such as the Protein Happy Quinoa Wrap, which is a Mediterranean-inspired wrap, filled with seasoned quinoa, beans and fresh herbs. Oh, and being a romantic, the Jimwich, which is my husband's signature sandwich, and his contribution to the book has to make the list.
Celine: And I did the PBBB Sandwich. It's really just a veganized version of the famous Elvis sandwich. When I first heard about this crazy flavor combo, I just had to try it, but I dreaded that the results would be the vilest thing ever. As it turns out, it couldn't have been further from the truth: this one is definitely a favorite from the book, so all hail Elvis!
Other favorites of mine include the From Russia With Love Sandwich (it's a tempeh sandwich with beets, minced dill pickles and vegan sour cream, among other things), the Protein Happy Quinoa Wrap you've already heard about above, and the Deviled (Not) Egg Sandwich, packed with chickpeas, minced red bell pepper and other goodies.
This cookbook has some of the most gorgeous and unique food photos I've ever seen. Can you describe your methodology behind shooting them?
Celine: *Blush* Thank you for saying! I think the most important step for me is to start by building an approximate mental image of what I want the finished picture to look like, and select props accordingly by picking things that don't clash, and that will work well with the sandwich's shape, colors, etc. It can take quite a lot of sorting and tweaking before I get it right, so that's probably what takes me the longest to prepare.
After that, it's just a matter of actually shooting the stuff, while hoping my cats don't jump on the table and make a mess of everything.
Can you explain how vegan sandwiches can actually save the day?
Tami: You want the deeper answer, or the shallow one? In reality, eating vegan saves the day by being less harmful to animals, the planet, and your health. Big wins all around. On a lighter note, sandwiches always hit the spot! They're quick, easy, and you get to eat with your hands! It's hard to not to smile when you've got a sandwich in front of you. That saves the day for us.
