That's bizarre. Where's Dr. Poo when you need him?

At the tweed and suede elbow patch sportcoat store.

They also sell pipes...

One-stop shopping at it's best!

I was there two weekends ago. Does that count?

Not sure. You'll have to call them and ask.

It really should.

I was wondering, though, if you brought a Big Mac combo and ate it there, would that count?

Just a superfluous bit of text from another article, I bet. The guy likely hit CTL-C by accident. It's not a error, it's an unfortunate mistake. From the broken grammar it is obvious what happened.

Defence Tyler Myers, the 6-foot-8 rookie, was The Senators, with Andy Sutton and Matt Carkner, are tougher than in past years, and they still have Chris Phillips and Anton Volchenkov to face opponents' top lines. Pittsburgh might be a little weaker since since playoff stalwart Rob Scuderi left for Los Angeles, but Gonchar and Kris Letang are offensive threats.

MP3.

You know, I'd rather the Sens be the underdogs in this one. Let everyone count them out, that way the pressure is off them.

I don't want to alarm anyone but we're just under 5 hours away from puck drop.

Interesting loophole you present. We'd have to see if they'd even allow you into the restaurant with it though.

Ottawa puts Jonathan Cheechoo on re-entry waivers and Phx's Joel Perrault and Bos's Dany Sabourin clear re-entry waivers.

Players still have to go through re-entry waivers in the post-season? Can he be claimed?

Based on the sign alone without knowing any further details or fine print I'd say you could walk in there with a handful of peanuts, scarf them down within the restaurant property and you'd be fine.

shabbs already posted it and posed the question but no one seems to have the answer as of yet.

Indeed. The problem is the sign says you need to eat here. Do they mean right under the sign, on the sign, in the restaurant. Very ambiguous.

The other question that remains is does it only apply to those that have read the sign or those that are aware of the consequences should they not eat there?

i cannot guarentee but i am pretty sure if someone did pick him up they would not be allowed to use him in the playoffs so i would expect no problems so if i am correct either he passes through and we have a hard worker for the playoffs or he gets taken in which case we lose his contract from our books either way it is a good sign
