1) If you could leave NY where would you move to and why?

 

I probably wouldn't. I'd just move farther upstate. Maybe Buffalo one day? We have a lot of family and friends in the area. I'm sure as shit not going anywhere hotter.

 

2) If you could pick one annoying internet trend to go away, what would it be?

 

Facebook. The entire thing. Just kill it.

 

3) How did you meet your wife and how old were you?

 

She dated an old room mate of mine for about a week. She didn't like him, and I liked her... "personality." Asked her to if she wanted to get some pizza at a new spot that had just opened up in our hood. Bagged them — I mean, her. The rest is history. This was like ten or eleven years ago, so figure 26 or 27?

 

4) What is your initial reaction to being called a hipster?

 

?\_(ツ)_/?

 

5) Be honest, there are at least 3 people you want to kick off the forum right now, right?

 

Yup. Vodka Drunkenski. Three times. For suggesting they trade Panarin. I wish I could triple-ban him just for suggesting something so monumentally stupid.

 

6) Do you see yourself running this forum for the rest of your life?

 

Fuck no. Covid-26 will probably wipe out the world. What use is a forum with no humans to use it?

 

7) Favorite all time ranger who wasn't a "star" or Petr Prucha?

 

Carbomb. Boom.

 

8) Guilty pleasure- Music and Movie please

 

Buddy, take your pick. I listen to (and watch) all kinds of shit people hate and I give no fucks. Their my ears, not yours. Don't like it? Go listen to whatever tickles your taint.

 

You want examples? Music: pick any nu metal band from the 90s and I probably like them and can recite lyrics on command. Movie: The Devil Wears Prada rules.

 

9) Whats an embarrassing thing about you that you never tell people but will now willingly tell an entire forum of people?

 

False premise. I'm really not embarrassed by much of anything, but how about this combo for a laugh:

 

26337_1405304572903_1821795_n.jpg?raw=1

 

That's an Atlanta Braves windbreaker, for the record. And I'm pretty sure the shoes were like Fila? I was a weird fuckin' kid, man. And we haven't gotten to the pink hair dye, spiked hair, ball chain necklaces, or anything yet.

I had one years ago, but it probably died in The Great Purge™.

1. How many Limp Bizkit albums did you own?

 

Just two. Three Dollar Bill and Significant Other.

 

2. Approximately how many piercings did you get as a teenager that you've let close?

 

Six. Two separate snake bites — horizontal and vertical (so four total), labret, and nez.

 

3. Favorite moment in your Rangers fandom?

 

'94 Cup. I had just turned ten when they won and my dad worked as a contractor for Newsday. One of his carriers worked in merchandising for Modell's and I had the hat and t-shirt a day or two after they won because the guy pulled them right off a truck and gave them to my dad for me to wear to school.

 

is a close runner up. I still go back and watch that and get chills. Doc called it perfectly!

 

4. Worst moment in your Rangers fandom?

 

Martinez. Fucking gutted me.

 

5. If you could re-design Penn Station, how would you do it?

 

Like, as a brand, or the interior design? If it's the latter, I'd bring in as much light as possible. It's such a dark, dank hub with no fucking sunlight, which makes it a miserable landmark to visit. Wherever possible, where the corridors and structures could support it, I'd install ceiling windows everywhere and bring live plants inside throughout. Make it feel like you're walking through a modern transit hub instead of a cross between late 80s era architecture and dystopia.

 

6. Would you rather fight one Chara sized Mats Zuccarello, or 100 Zuccarello sized Zdeno Charas?

 

I'm losing either way, so I'm going with one Chara-sized Zucc and taking my lumps, hoping not to die. 100 Zucc-sized Chara's is a death sentence. Like being jumped by the entire prison yard.

 

7. Is a hot dog a sandwich?

 

Yes. A sandwich is "two or more slices of bread or a split roll having a filling in between." So, by definition, a hot dog qualifies.

 

8. Should we recognize Chicago-style pizza as a pie, a cake, a pizza, a lasagna, a casserole, or a tomato sauce swimming pool?

 

It's sure as fuck not pizza. It's pizza ingredients in the construction of a casserole or bread-bowl soup if hot enough.

what color shorts are you wearing?

 

Black jeans. My shorts are usually cargo and camo, with both pockets filled with kids' garbage.

 

how many pairs of glasses do you have with your current prescription?

 

Two. My prescription hasn't changed, so the pair I wear every day and a backup pair, which were my old ones.

 

have you ever paid for porn?

 

Definitely, and cancelled any subs probably within a month because the free content is just as... fulfilling. True story: I dated a girl in college who worked some administrative gig for Naughty America. I wore that free login out.

 

when is the last time you played a sport?

 

Played hockey with the kids last weekend. We live up the street from Owen's school, and the playground behind it has a huge blacktop area. I have a few sticks here still, and picked up one of those like $25 Franklin street sets to get a few extra kid-sized ones. We regularly go there to hang out with his friends and their parents, a few of whom also brought sticks. We basically played keep away with like a dozen kindergarteners last Saturday. Probably do the same this weekend, weather permitting.

 

What's the first thing your son will get arrested for?

 

Probably punching whoever bullies him in the face. I'll take him for ice cream after.

Kenny 'The King' Albert, bar none. My body has been ready for this for years.

 

2. What's one thing in your life, if you can go back and change it, what would it be?

 

Never go to college. I wasn't mentally prepared to sign that paperwork, and talent, not "education" gets you far in life. Even if I failed to get to where I am in my career, I'd likely be a lot better off without five-figure debt.

 

3. How the hell do you keep up with all us loony birds up here??

 

I'll let you in on the secret: I don't. That's the beauty of a Moderating team. I have to tell them at least a few times a year "you don't need my approval to take action. Do what you think is best."

 

4. If you were going to be stranded on a desert island with any other forum moderator, who would you want it to be, and why?

 

Layup. Puck Head. He's a living viking. I trust my chances of survival with him implicitly.

The shootout victory over the Flyers that clinched the playoffs for the first time post-Dark Ages. Just pure elation.

1) What's your idea of a perfect vacation?

2) What's your idea of a perfect weekend?

3) Does a tunafish sandwich count as seafood?

4) Do you put ketchup on your eggs?

5) You receive notification from a lawyer that the name of this forum and brand is in violation of copyright law and needs to be changed. What's the new name you are picking for the forum?

6) It's OT in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals. The Rangers are just starting a powerplay. Your daughter had a blowout and has ripped her diaper off. She is smearing poo all over the house. Nobody else can stop her. What's your plan of action?

1) What's your idea of a perfect vacation?

 

Anywhere without kids that doesn't feel like I'm on the surface of the sun. I'm trying to get drunk and nail the wife and not necessarily in that order. :rofl:

 

2) What's your idea of a perfect weekend?

 

Saturday out with the kids running my oldest ragged. Sleep in on Sunday, make pancakes and bacon, and do as little as possible the rest of the day.

 

3) Does a tunafish sandwich count as seafood?

 

Of course. If it lives in the sea, it's sea food, regardless of how it's presented or consumed.

 

4) Do you put ketchup on your eggs?

 

Never. Hot sauce, yes. Ketchup, fuck no.

 

5) You receive notification from a lawyer that the name of this forum and brand is in violation of copyright law and needs to be changed. What's the new name you are picking for the forum?

 

Blueshirt Brotherhood, singular, just to fuck with them.

 

6) It's OT in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals. The Rangers are just starting a powerplay. Your daughter had a blowout and has ripped her diaper off. She is smearing poo all over the house. Nobody else can stop her. What's your plan of action?

 

First of all, why is my daughter awake and smearing shit all over my place at like 10:00 at night? Second, where the fuck did my wife go and why isn't she fixing this? Third, I'd grab a big towels, wrap her up (pinning her arms) and just hold her in place. Shit washes off. Missing the moment can't be replicated.

Do you have anyone on ignore?

Do you live in an apartment?

Do your kid(s) ride a school bus?

When are you moving out of the metro area?

Who would win in a fight, Dunny wearing DeAngelo's equipment or G1000 wearing Georgiev's equipment?

1. What five all-time Rangers would you select for an opening faceoff line brawl?

 

We're talking Rangers, not players in their prime who eventually became Rangers, right?

 

Kocur - Orr - McCarthy

Boogaard - Domi

 

I don't even care that half these guys didn't play these positions. It's a brawl. We're not trying to win a hockey game.

 

2. You have a lineup of Greg McKegg, Tanner Glass, Jed Ortmeyer, Brandon Prust, and Dale Weise. Who are you sending out to take the game-winning penalty shot?

 

I'd probably have better luck borrowing someone's skates and stick and trying myself. But of this group, fuck, Weise, I guess?

 

3. What celebrity would you select to fill in for a game with the Rangers?

 

Tim Robbins. He'd get one shift for the cheers in the first and I'd staple his ass to the bench for the rest of the game.

 

4. You’re trapped in a room with Sherry Palmer and Joffrey Baratheon with nothing but a wooden chair. How do you proceed?

 

Kick both back legs off and stab them each to death, then balance the chair on it's front two legs against a wall and wait for the cops.

 

5. How long does it take you in a Brokeback Mountain scenario to fuck Henrik Lundqvist?

 

You've got that scenario the wrong way around, and less than a minute.

 

6. Anthony Stewart becomes the new color commentator for the Rangers. How does this affect you watching Rangers games?

 

It doesn't. I watch most games with the volume really low. I barely hear commentators. His GIF game is on point, though.
