Me: "Actually those are NBA Cup decorations. They come down on the 14th."

Star Trek TNG, S3E18: Picard gets abducted by aliens. Riker plans a mutiny. Meanwhile, Picard's doppelgänger goes on a rampage: ordering the ship to take the scenic route, engaging in self-care, asking Crusher on a date, telling the crew he loves them, etc.

I don’t know how they expect anyone to focus on work today knowing that there are NBA Cup games tonight.

NHL logo history: 1975

The NHL now held an 80-game season with 18 teams spread across four divisions in two conferences named after people instead of geographic areas.

The Los Angeles Kings tweaked their logo to mimic the NBA's Lakers. They still use this design today, but with different colors.

NHL logo history: 1974

In 1973, the NHL rejected Charles O. Finley's request to move the California Golden Seals to Indianapolis. Unable to find a buyer, he sold the team back to the league. No longer connected to MLB's Oakland Athletics, the NHL changed the Golden Seals' green to a pacific teal.

NHL logo history: 1972

Despite having added eight teams over the past five years, the NHL felt compelled to add two more teams this season to fend off the World Hockey Association.

But first, the Pittsburgh Penguins dropped the circle around their logo. And this is the design they use today.

Some of the greatest hits by the Utah GOP, all in one article:

1. Baseless fearmongering about Utah turning into California
2. A disdain for voters being able to choose for themselves.

NHL logo history: 1971

The NHL still divided its 14 teams into an East and a West Division that had little relevance on actual geography (Vancouver was East and Philadelphia was West).

Meanwhile, the New York Rangers perfected their logo. Just the right font size. Nice lines and colors. I love it!

Bracing myself for another round of LDS apologists claiming that laws exempting clergy from mandatory reporting encourage people to confess their crimes.

Hear me on repeat: if someone will only confess with an understanding of escaping criminal accountability, they are not penitent and a danger.

Strange that KSL and Tad Walch missed this detail: "A search of his phone allegedly revealed a search history for criminal defense attorneys in Ohio and the phrase, “In Ohio do clergy have to report child abuse confessions.”
BREAKING: Wade Christofferson, the brother of an apostle of the LDS Church, has been charged with federal crimes alleging he attempted to sexually exploit children in Utah and Ohio.

NHL logo history: 1970

Just three years after doubling in size, the NHL decided to add two more teams. And it was mostly because of the Oakland Seals. But more on that later.

For now, here is the Toronto Maple Leafs simplifying their new logo. I consider this a bit of a downgrade.

NHL logo history: 1968

The 12-team NHL expanded to a 74-game season, but left the Original Six in the East Division, while all the new teams were dumped in the West. I think the Pittsburgh Penguins changed their logo to an angry penguin because they were mad about the geographic inconsistencies.

NHL logo history: 1967

The Toronto Maple Leafs celebrated their 1966-67 Stanley Cup by changing their logo to the more traditional maple leaf shape that is used on Canada's flag and elsewhere. I think this is an improvement, but it seems to have cursed the franchise. They haven't won a title since.

Jazz do succeed at holding the Warriors below 140, but lose 134-117.

Keyonte George: 28 points, 7 asts, remarkably, a +1.
