Meh, I don't want new construction. If I did I would already own a soulless hell hole in some soulless hell hole suburb. Besides, no one's stealing homes in Denver right now aside from foreclosures...

Inspection yesterday uncovered a laundry list of problems and potential problems running the gamut from minor (obviously) to mid-sized to potentially major.

Time to have some specialists come in...

Thanks for everything, everyone. Lots varied but good opinions from different points of view. Like I said, this place is like having you own cabinet. Awesome.

I'm going to keep the inspector my...

Yes, we got her name through a referral from someone we trust. She has a good reputation and is extremely involved in the community. She would have a lot to lose by actively screwing us. I more or...

FKNA right. I'm normally not like that, though. Glad for it too... Being extremely cautious and distrustful is exhausting.

How do you really trust any real estate agent that isn't a friend or relative? I don't distrust my agent, but I am cognizant of the fact that, at this point in the process, it is in her best...

Lame. Any other way to track them down? Or is that just too sketchy? Normally, I'm a more trusting person but there something about shelling out a large portion of my savings and committing myself...

So, recently I became a first time home buyer. I went under contract on Monday and I have a few questions for people with some experience with this process:

Based on the seller's property...

Someone reminded Lundqvist that he needs to hold his glove hand higher and now he's back to being nearly unbeatable, as he was the first 2/3 of the regular season. I'm not sure how that adjustment...

Captain Awesome beat you to it there, wise guy. And I had pretty much backed off that statement already anyway.

Torts isn't gonna melt down unless the Rangers are getting killed, then all bets...

I will be in Iceland with my girlfriend. I think your prospects for seeing the game are significantly better than mine. I'm probably better off, though... If the Rangers lose, it won't ruin my day...

I picked the Kings over the Blues in my pool after the first round, but I ignored my gut and made the logical choice of the Canucks over the Kings in the first.

I'm 100% on board the Kings train...

You just couldn't wait to repost that, could you? I wrote that after game 2. Look back at what I wrote after game 4.

Regarding tonight's game, as usual the Rangers didn't have enough guys going...

C'mon, Tip, he lept well before contact. Just cause the tip of one skate wasn't off the ice when they collided doesn't mean he didn't jump at him. It doesn't mean he had any control of over his...

Giroux doesn't have a history of being a whiny bitch so he gets a pass. He probably could have gotten two games for that, but not in the playoffs. He was fired up and got a little reckless but I...

I don't know if it's because of last Wednesday or the playoffs catching up to them or the entire season catching up, but I've watched the Rangers play a lot of hockey this year and they were missing...

The Rangers looked a little tired to me. I'd like to see Monday night wait an extra day. At the same time I think Washington played it's best defensive game despite the two breakdowns that lead to...

Maybe I'm just saying this because I'm watching every minute because I'm a fan of one teams that are playing, but I don't think I've ever seen more crucial opportunities in such tights games hit...

Nice save Boyle.

I'm aware of this activity thanks to Anthony Bourdain and No Reservations. Rest assured, it's on the list.

I think the fact that they suspended them points to some locker room issues with those two. Apparently, Trotz and Poille spoke to Weber, Sutter, etc. about how they should handle it, and the team...

Anyone got any ideas? I'm looking for something that can be accessed from Reykjavik pretty easily, either by bus or rental car. Off the beaten would be preferred, but I realize anything meeting the...

Just trying to stir up trouble.

And on that note... Regarding the faster skater, they changed the format of the all star game fastest skater comp in 2008 (used to be just one lap). Since then and...

Bottle opener is a nice touch

I'd say it's called about half the time when a faceoff is won cleanly back and the center or wing holds his guy up for more that a split second. It's a different story when it actually is a scrum...

1. Yes, the Rangers make mistakes, but never three bad ones in a row like that. Three forwards in too deep, Bickel giveaway at the blueline, Del Zotto failing to play the cross ice pass correctly. ...

No chance. Rangers were easily the better team last night. Lets rerun the Caps three goals:

1. A horrible, almost unheard of Ranger blunder, even for the 6th defenseman.
2. A fluke.
3. A PP...

Technically, I think dogs are supposed to be leashed pretty much everywhere (definitely not allowed at all in RMNP). However, unless I'm in a very popular area on a weekend, I almost never see dogs...

Just for good measure, I will third Lost Creek. Might as well second Lucile's too.

If you like tacos and ice cream hit up Soccoro then Sweet Action in the South Broadway area.

Not exactly...

Funny, I was going to respond to moops saying that Florida's attendance is no worse than New Jersey's when they're not in the playoffs or playing the Rangers in the regular season. That was just...

He certainly seems to be. It's funny... the way he played in games 6 and 7 I don't think it's a stretch to say they may have gone down to the Sens without him. You could certainly say the same...

I find most NY sports fans, including Rangers fans, to be very obnoxious so I'm a little wary of behaving like one myself.

Who are people thinking will go to the western conference final and why?...

After watching the last two Rangers/Sens games, I have a hard time seeing anyone in the east beat them. They are back to playing like the team that manhandled the entire eastern conference, with the...

Apparently, Nickelback is pretty much the official band of the NHL.

Really? Because they're Canadian and like hockey? I'd be happier with Rush. And...

Sounds like he wants out, actually. Otherwise, why would he say something like that to the media?

In other news, Devils force game 7 vs Panthers. Oh wait, no one cares...

Not OK. Just the way it is. If you're that worried about it, call child protective services next time rather than going home and posting incredulously about it on the internet.

Or just go home...

Crema at 2862 Larimer St. in Denver

Hippster approved for sure. They wouldn't serve me because I didn't have an ear lobe plug or a tattoo on my face. Smelled great, though.

That doesn't surprise me one bit. His team embarrassed themselves, and even worse (for Mario), they embarrassed him.

If I had any balls whatsoever I would have bet my house on the Pens winning...

Compared to some of the shit that even fine, upstanding people do to their kids, leaving them in the car while they run into the gas station for some smokes is pretty harmless.

Yes, people are...

Yeah, indefinitely until his in person hearing on Friday, which Torres requested be postponed a day. Why would he delay the hearing when that means he'll definitely miss the game tomorrow? Well,...

The problem is that 95%, maybe more, are pros and play the game the way it's meant to be played. It's the 5% (the Torres, the Ashams, etc) that do everything they can to actually inflict damage and...

Of course they won't. If I were Shanahan, I'd give him 25 games, which is the most games the Coyotes could possibly play in the playoffs. That won't happen either.

All this mayhem was...

No way. Did you see the hit on Hossa? Someone without Torres' history, I'd say give a few games. They should just toss him from the league, though. Dude can't hit someone without leaving his feet,...

Challenge:

Name a bigger piece of shit in the NHL than Raffi Torres.

Can't, can you?

I've had a KitchenAid for 3+ years and it works as well as the day it was new. My only gripe is that you can't fasten the blending pitcher to the base so it vibrates and makes a pretty brutal noise...

Didn't you hear? Sean Avery is retired. :wink:

Maybe they're not all obvious but the shameful ones that embarrass the game are. Suspend guys for those the and there will be fewer of the not so...

Fines won't work. I'm guessing most players value wins more than money and if you can stand the embarrassment of flopping it's worth it to draw a penalty. Also with the exception of young players...

Assuming no medical conditions, I think it's a function of length and thickness. My theory is that long thick hair tangles more easily and therefore gets pulled out more easily in the shower and...

Watch that hit again. Hagelin went to finish his check, got his hands up little, Alfredsson tried to sneak out of the way, Hagelin missed and his elbow ended up glancing off Alfy's head. Careless?...

It makes me sad that Templeton can't be found in CO regardless of the laws of supply and demand.
