Ha. Well, of course, you could always be a Blackhawks fan.
Did you guys (Pens haterz!) hear about the thing where Crosby's been playing on a broken foot since mid-March against Montreal?
Looks like I'll still be in the minority this round as I'll be cheering for the Wings over the Sharks. I don't really care, but I'm thinking Sabres will beat the Rangers. I dunno about Sens/Devils. The SO is just sick of seeing NJ, so he's pulling for Ottawa. And I'm good either way with Canucks/Ducks. Canucks/Ducks. Canucks/Ducks. Okay. I'm done now. But as far as I'm concerned the Ducks can win the cup now that their name is no longer sponsored. But Luogo played a heck of a series 1st rounder, so I wouldn't mind seeing them move on, either.
Flyby post, just to say CONGRATS, megan!
Heh. Try being a Flyers fan from birth, and a Caps fan by adoption. I don't know which team was more painful to watch this year.
Ahem. points at screen name Only Cubs fans get bragging rights over me in the playoffs pain competition.
This year I'm rooting for the Ducks, despite no longer having an ownership stake in them. The other remaining teams have at most one or two players I like, but Anaheim has Brad May, Chris Pronger, the Niedermayer Brothers, and former Bruin Sean O'Donnell.
So it looks like I'm coming down from the ivory tower and heading San Francisco way.
Rock! I'm very excited to have you in SF.
Allyson, I'd totally tour with you.
Daisy, I very nearly wrote back to the editor and said, "You know my friend Daisy could write a better thing about the south than I could" - but I needed the money.
It's warm and sunny, and I just saw a dude wandering down the street dressed like a banana.
PEANUT BUTTER JELLY TIME!!
I just had to send my new person back to the printer jam with no instructions. The fact is, all I know is "open everything up and see what happens," and I need her to be able to figure this stuff out! This morning there was a printer problem, which I solved for her by poking buttons at random. She could have done that!
The Great Convergence of Buffistas continues! Megan, that's great!
Congrats, Hec!
I've been steadfastly ignoring the hockey talk on account of our sucktastic team and the ugly local happenings with our GM's firing after six losing seasons. Things haven't been pleasant.
I heard about Crosby playing with a broken foot. I'm not really a Pens hater. The only teams I actually hate are the Florida Panthers (in state rivals ! Boo!) and also the Thrashers. Oh and Calgary. I want the Devils to lose because they beat Tampa and because I'm so tired of hearing about Broduer and how LEGENDARY he is. (blech).
Did y'all hear the owner of the Blackhawks is threatening to sell the team if the NHLPA hires someone like Goodenow? All over blog land I've seen comments like "Yes! Please!"
