What's wrong with "oriental"? It’s no longer politically correct to call Asian people oriental. I’m not exactly sure of the reasoning but it’s on the offensive list now Fuck the offensive list. "Orient Express".

Going through a Divorce after 28 Years of Marriage myself, I can attest to the fact that things get greatly exaggerated. With that being said, if You watch the way Kane carries himself, there is a possibility that there could be some substance to these claims. My soon to be ex and I can be civil one Day, the next Day she’s Gone off the rails! Anyone who’s gone through a divorce knows it’s horrible; let alone being Pregnant and having those hormones all fucked up! Oh that sucks. You figure if you are married that long you will stay together forever but there are some windows where this seems to happen: Early in the marriage When one spouse's career goes very well or very poorly Empty nest Retirement Loss of a child Getting close to the 30 year mark myself. |

Yeah I cracked up too. I hadn't heard nor seen that since I quit working in 2003 and the way John said it made my day I am curious. Well spade was a slang name for Black people (usually pejorative) from the color of the symbol on playing cards. |

"Call a spade a spade" has been in use for nearly half a millennium (and variations on it date at least as far back as A.D. 120). But it didn't start to take on the racist connotation it has now until the early 20th century. Evidently, in the 1920s, "spade" started being used as a slang term, and then a derogatory slur, for a black person. This racist shift in the phrase's meaning also lead to the equally offensive phrase "black as the ace of spades." "Call a spade..." is still perfectly acceptable and comprehensible. It is not particularly racist despite alternative uses of "spade." One just needs to be sensitive to contexts wherein in might be misconstrued. |

Yeah it was 12 Years too late. We worked together for the last 22 Years, “still do” but that amongst a lot of other shit killed our marriage. I don’t wish that on anyone to have to live and work with their Spouse. |

If it was just about anyone else who wrote that story, then there could be truth in it. Kurz is the worst of reporters. |

from Greg Wyshynski of ESPN, The NHL and the International Olympic Committee were unable to secure an expanded media rights deal for the 2022 Winter Olympics, but the league still intends to send its players to Beijing, sources told ESPN. In its new collective bargaining agreement, the NHL agreed to let players participate in the 2022 Beijing Games and 2026 Milan Games contingent on securing agreements with the IOC and IIHF. The 2021-22 regular-season schedule was released with an Olympic break from Feb. 7-22. Talks remain ongoing between the NHL, NHLPA, IIHF and IOC. While no final agreement is imminent, there has been positive momentum toward a resolution for several weeks. If and when that final deal is announced, it will not include expanded media and marketing rights for the NHL, which had been a goal for the past decade. The NHL was denied "Top Sponsor Status" for the 2018 Pyeongchang Games, which would have allowed its website and NHL Network to have content from the Games. It was one of the stated reasons why the league opted not to send its players to those Winter Olympics, among other financial considerations. www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/31943170/nhl-ioc-unable-agree-expanded-media-rights-deal-2022-winter-olympics-sources-say |

Given the stories I've heard from Biznasty podcast, the KHL would be a perfect fit for Kane. I just wonder if the NHL would let them terminate the contract or make the sharks buy him out and take the cap hit. |
