Chindie Posted October 24, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted October 24, 2021 Just watching this year's All or Nothing series, this year focusing on the Toronto Maple Leafs ice hockey team. What I know about ice hockey wouldn't fill a postage stamp, but still with these shows the understanding of the game isn't really the point. But I was kinda thrown when the first game came up and the caption said 'Game 1 of 56', in what seemed to be a 8 team division. So I went to Wikipedia on the NHL and got this Quote During the regular season, clubs play each other in a predefined schedule. Since 2021, in the regular season, all teams play 82 games: 41 games each of home and road, playing 26 games in their own geographic division—four against five of their seven other divisional opponents, plus three against two others; 24 games against the eight remaining non-divisional intra-conference opponents—three games against every team in the other division of its conference; and 32 against every team in the other conference twice—home and road.[ Wiki ...huh? I dunno, I think how straight forward football is in the structure of the game makes American structures, where they mix a league and about 3 cup competitions into a single competition seem completely bizarre. I appreciate why they do it (partly a practicality thing because of how big the country is, partly to maximise money in each season) but still, reading that I can barely get my head around it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 82 games in the regular season is positioning for the playoffs basically. It's all about the Stanley Cup in the end. No team celebrate winning their division or their conference. Even in the playoffs teams get a trophy if they win their conference an advance to the Stanley Cup. It is an tradition to not even lift that trophy.

sidcow Posted October 26, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted October 26, 2021 People who wear fake snakeskin, fake fur etc. OK you are not actually slaughtering animals to make those actual clothes* but you're still glamorising the wearing of it. * although I've seen reports that fake fur often comprises of quite a lot of real fur too thanks to the usually shoddy supply chain checks retailers use.

Davkaus Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 I've recieved a genuine handwritten letter of Jehovas Witness propaganda from a woman who's put her reply address and phone number on there, she's a couple of miles away from me. It's gone to everyone in my street, and a friend who lives a 10 minute drive away recieved the same letter from the woman a couple of months ago. She must spend hours and hours writing thousands of these letters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, the city was a big contributor but it was Brum that was dubbed 'The Workshop of the World'. The epicentre of cotton slavery hasn't got the same ring to it.
