Air fare is just too danged expensive, ya know.<br /><br />The Sharks pulled out a squeaker last night, winning in OT, and it's back to the Duck Pond tomorrow for Game Six. I think it'll be over at that point, but I'm "on the record" as hoping that series goes seven games. I really don't care WHO wins the series, when push comes to shove... we (ahem. The Wings...) can beat either team.Buckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05319116022465066060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169129998329537448.post-1749997974572376552009-04-26T09:22:00.000-04:002009-04-26T09:22:00.000-04:00Buck: I'm willing to cede to the Bruins.

We drink champagne out of The Cup in Dee-troit. :-)<br /><br />True, yet sad, story... I suffered through ten years of heartbreak while living in Detroit, and then The Beloved Wings win The Cup... back-to-back, at that!... the year AFTER I left Motown. And to add insult to injury, my former next door neighbor sends PICTURES of her and her boyfriend drinking out of The Cup at our favorite watering hole... along with pics of her and various Wings team members... not a week after the first win. Can you say "heartbreak?"<br /><br />I promise to be civil if the Pens (heh) and Wings make it to the finals. Less so if the Bruins play the Wings. ;-)Buckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05319116022465066060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9169129998329537448.post-58375007863278200582009-04-23T09:05:00.000-04:002009-04-23T09:05:00.000-04:00Klo: A mullet?

That's one more hockey game than I've gone to. I've never actually seen a played in person. Maybe one day...<br /><br />Suldog: CHIPPY? What are you saying, you dirty Bruin? Oh, just because I'm a Pen's fan you can strut around here all high and mighty!<br /><br />*koff-koff* Wow, don't know what came over me there for a second. Actually, I left a comment over at Buck's place saying that the match-up I would like to see would be the Bruins against the Blue Jackets. Oh, I'm still rooting for the Penguins to kick some bear butt, but still...<br /><br />Hilary: But... you live IN CANADA? Isn't there a rule that you HAVE to like hockey and mostly canadian teams like the Oilers or the Habs? What's wrong with you, woman? ;-)<br /><br />Eric: I'm a what?<br /><br />Chris: *COUGH-COUGH-HACK!* Let's go DEVILS? How dare you speaketh such blasphemy upon a PITTSBURGH PENGUINS fan blog. I'm dumbfounded. I'm dumbstruck. Dare I say it? I'm even a touch bedeviled... <br /><br />Oh wait. I remember now. That's a joke about liking the Devils because you made the Easter comment about loving "deviled eggs." Haha! I get it now.
