Terry Murray is a man with a vision. Visions of the future. Of better, happier times, when we all share in the love that issues forth from the top on down, blurring lines between the haves and the have-nots. Gandhi would be proud. Unfortunately, these visions may be hallucinations. Because either I'm stupid, or after a single game of powerplay success Topsy Terry is already looking … [Read more...]
DOUGHTY & JOHNSON: “HEY MURRAY, WHAT TOOK YA SO LONG?”
