Weber, Giroux, the Flyers, and Stanley Cup-shaped Sugar Plums

I woke up this morning to about six text messages. One was from my mom. The rest all had to do with Shea Weber.

SHEA WEBER.

By now, if you're reading this post, you know all about the 14-year, $110 million offer sheet that Weber signed with the Flyers last night. I don't want to re-hash the analysis that every single other hockey outlet has provided over the past 12 hours, so let me bullet-point a couple of links that will allow you to apprise yourself of the situation before I launch into a couple of original thoughts:

Nick Young? Kwame Brown? Sixers' only hope is to blow it all up

Out are Lou Williams and Elton Brand. In are Mo Harkless, Arnett Moultrie, Nick Young, and Kwame Brown.

What the Sixers lack in quality, they certainly make up for in lack of quality.

AWESOME KICK ASS AMERICA FUCK YEA

I think we can all agree on one thing: America kicks so much fucking ass that it can do whatever the fuck it feels like doing.  We conquered the moon, castrated the Nazi’s and splooged all over Marilyn Monroe’s face. 

Don’t listen to those PC fags in the pussy media, America is fine.  China ain’t got shit on me, you or any beer swilling, firework blasting, bacon eating freedom lover.  And I know why.  NO ONE DOES AMERICA LIKE HOLLYWOOD!!!!
