The air is turning a little warmer. The calendar pages have flipped to April. That can only mean one thing - IT'S HOCKEY PLAYOFF TIME!!!! It's the best time of the year!! Anyone with me? Pucks have dropped on all the first round games and the games have been great!!
Anyone out there think they can take the cup away from my Red Wings? We looked great last night, the game was an exciting one to watch. My apologies go right away to any Columbus Blue Jackets, not for anything in particular - just my apologies, LOL! RenalRomance - what happened to your Sharks? You gonna let those Ducks do that to a Shark? paul.karen - uhoh..... Penguins were flying more than your Flyers. Paris, your Canes better get busy.
It's hockey playoff time again!!! GO WINGS!
-
:rofl;
Your right about a couple of things.
it will be VERY HARD to take the cup from the Wings.
And the Flyer's look asleep slow off the puck no control no defense no good checking or boarding.
But :2thumbsup; It is playoff time and anything can happen.
yes I am here with you. thx for making a post for the playoffs
-
My family back in Columbus are huge Blue Jacket fans. Have had season tickets since they got the franchise. We, in Raleigh, love our Hurricanes! Please don't let the Jackets go far in the playoffs! :thumbdown; Lived in St Louis for years and was always a Blues fan, but they never won the Cup! Now the Canes, they already have brought the Cup to Raleigh! You got to love hockey players. They give so much back to the community and are so normal. My daughter is good friends with Rod Brin'amours wife. I have known Ray Whitney's family since they moved here They are all very much a part of the everyday life in Raleigh. You can only imagine how excited we were when they brought hockey to the South!! I love a good game--so it will be fun to see who wins this year. :2thumbsup;
-
Go Wings!
-
Yeah jbeany! I thought you might be a fan!
-
'Canes won in overtime tonight :yahoo;
-
I attended the Wings' game tonight. It was FANTASTIC!!! Wings won 4-0! It was such a great night - got to go with the whole family, we had a blast. GO WINGS!!
-
That is a good night----family, hockey and a win!! It doesn't get much better than that!!
-
You are sooo right, paris. Here's a picture of us from last night. This was after the game, you can tell by our happy faces.
-
'Canes lost in overtime last night. I still love them! If we don't go all the way, I will help cheer for the Wings. Although I can't tell anyone in my family!!
-
Flyers decide to actualy play this weekend. :beer1;
-
I watched the Flyers-Penguins game on Sunday. What a game!! Your guys were playing for real in that one. The crowd looked great - lots & lots of orange!!
-
The Hurricanes did it in the last second--literally! So, another win for us --- :yahoo; It was a good game, but thought they might lose it at one point. They like to keep us on the edge of our seats!! Blue Jackets lost. My husband is on the phone talking with his brother in Columbus -- they were at the game. Sorry Blue Jackets!
-
Yeah, sorry Blue Jackets.
(teehee)
-
Im :puke;
What the &%@# is up with the flyers. Every year they barley get into the playoffs then CHOKE. Makes me almost wish they hadnt made it this far.
I will have to jump on a bandwagon soon :-(
To those of you with winning teams :2thumbsup; so much more fun to watch them games.
-
Come on over to Michigan, Paul! I've got the Red Wings on a very large screeen, and a recliner with your name on it. I even have few extra RedWing jerseys that we hand out to guests. NxStage on tap!
-
:rofl; NxStage on tap LOL.
I have the recliner and 61" tv already. And i have always liked The wings. (glady take a jersey) And colorado and St. Louis.
I may go with the Devils. This way if they and the wings meet up we can have a fun rivalry.
-
Whew!!! Wings made that last game a nail-biter!!! The good news is that they helped raise my blood pressure during dialysis, LOL. My regrets to your family, paris, but the Red Wings advance to the second round on the heels of a 6-5 game. Too close for my comfort, but I'll take it.
-
My husband has his Hurricanes sleep pants on, nachos to snack on and sitting in front of his big tv--so 'Canes you need to play good tonight!! Columbus relatives don't want to talk hockey with us right now. Oh well! Goooooo Canes!!
-
Fingers crossed we are still in it.
With a shut out win no less :thumbup;
-
The Devils are tough with Brodeur in net & the Bruins are strong, so it's gonna be tough for my Rangers to come out of the east, but hopefully they win tonight against the Caps and move on to play Boston.
If the Rangers don't win it all, then I hope it's the Red Wings...as long as the Devils, Flyers, or Bruins don't win it all, I will be ok.
-
Another loss for the 'Canes. My husbands lucky Hurricane sleep pants didn't work last night. I am not a fair weather fan--I love them win or lose.
-
:thumbup; A true fan..
Sadly it sems my team does better when i dont watch :sarcasm;.
yeah Drinkboy Brodeur is a tough netminder.
-
Brodeur is amazing. There were so many shots on goal and he did a fantastic job.
-
Wow, paris - your Canes are still in it. That was an amazing goal - right at the buzzer. Are you ready for game 7?
Paul - too bad your guys couldn't take out the Penguins. They gave it a good shot, though. Are you ready to put on that Red Wing jersey?
-
They played another good game last night. Beat NJ 4 - 0. Cam Ward is a great goalie. And,my boy, Ray Whitley, scored 2 goals!
-
Good games all around. Alot of tied up series which makes for GREAT HOCKEY.
And yup got my Wings as my backup so i can still cheer a team on. :thumbup;
But im into the Devils series now. That is my brothers and his wifes team. Since they are happy my flyers are out. Lets go canes..
-
'Canes versus Devils 4 to 3 We did it in the last minute 20 seconds. :clap; I know, only round 1 but I do love my Hurricanes and enjoy each and every win. :yahoo;
-
An exciting finish!!! Are you ready for round 2? Wings are playing the Ducks.
-
Sports announcers around here were going crazy tonight. I love it when the city really gets into the playoffs. We need to catch our breath and get ready for the next round. It is fun to see everyone wearing the Hurricanes shirts and flying flags everywhere. you have to love hockey!!
-
what an end to Round 1...I'm upset my Rangers blew a 3-1 series lead, so now I am rooting for the Red Wings to win it all.
the end to the Devils game last night was fantastic...unless you're a Devils' fan of course
bring on the next round
-
Go Mighty Ducks!
-
I don't get the games on TV now that I don't have cable, so I'll just have to root for them in spirit.
Go Wings!!!
-
Thanks, jbeany!!! GO WINGS!!
I'm going to pretend I didn't see kitkatz's post. I see nothing.....
I'm pumped up and ready to shoot at some ducks tonight. :) <3
-
Hey I like the movie the Mighty Ducks so I am gonna have to go with Kit tonight. Haha...
-
I didn't see that post either, Manda. :boxing;
-
I am not sure I can watch the game tonight. Good luck to our teams! Gooooooo Canes! :yahoo;
Ducks? What kind of name is that for a hockey team?? Cute little duckie or a mighty hurricane? Who do you think would win that battle? :rofl;
-
Duckies Dukies Dukies :yahoo;
-
Wow. 3 out of 4 of the series are tied at 1-1, with the 4th series playing their second game tonight. That's good hockey!!! I was at the Wings' game yesterday - triple overtime!! I don't know how the players survive that, I was exhausted just sitting in the stands, even more exhausted when the Ducks ended up scoring. I'm still tired today, that really took a lot out of me. Those west coast games are gonna be tough to stay up for. Maybe I'll start chewing some coffee beans now.
-
Canes had a great game last night. Cam Ward is an incredible goalie. Cherpep is right---it is a good series this year.
-
Paris - I see your Canes are up 2 to 1. Best of luck to your guys tonight. I do think it would be exciting to see your team take the series over Boston - they are an incredible foe.
My Wings made me a little nervous being down in the series 2-1, but they came to life last night and tied the series back up. It was a fun game to watch - they were skating with passion!! With all the bad news in the Detroit area right now, it's good to have the Wings to give us something to look forward to and forget our troubles for a little while. Let's hope they keep playing like they did last night (won 6-3), and we make it a couple more rounds. Next game is on Sunday - sounds like a great way to spend the evening on Mothers' Day. I wouldn't have it any other way.
-
Paris!!!!!! Both our teams are in game 7 positions. I don't know about you, but I am nervous. I have faith, but I am very nervous. I don't like game 7's. My hubby is gonna be popping Tums all day. I wore my jersey to work today, for extra luck.
Do you think your Cam Ward is gonna be able to pull it off tonight? I hope so for your sake, I'm sending good vibes out for Canes and my Wings!!!
-
Everyone is a bundle of nerves! I will say, the Canes play well when they are in game 7's. They need to go in with the right attitude and PLAY. Cam needs to take control of the net, my boy, Ray needs to get the puck in the net a couple of times. I'm not sure I can watch -- Good luck to both our teams. Even if tonight is the last night, they are two incredible teams and played some good hockey this season. :yahoo;
-
Oh my gosh - I could hardly breathe! It was so close. They definitely brought up my blood pressure, so that's a good thing. An even better thing is that they won!!! YEAH WINGS!!! Bring on Chicago.
Last I saw your team was winning by a goal. Hope they can pull it out for ya!
-
GOOO Blackhawks! :bandance; :bandance; :bandance;
But since it is a Chicago team, I won't get my hope up to high. :rofl; :rofl; :rofl;
I'll try o watch the game this weekend against the Red Wings if I feel up to it and not sleeping.
-
Go DUCKS! :yahoo; Haha nah just kidding. Just giving you a hard time. No I am happy your team has made it this far. You are the hokey fan not me. Hope you can watch them go all the way this year. ;)
-
What about our REDWINGS :thumbup;
What about them Penguins :thumbup;
What about them Flyers :thumbdown;
-
What about our REDWINGS :thumbup;
What about them Penguins :thumbup;
What about them Flyers :thumbdown;
They all sound like they flew the coup :rofl; :rofl;
-
how about those Rockets
-
Hurricanes did it in overtime!! What a game. AlohaBeth and I probably woke the neighborhood with that last goal :yahoo; We were yelling and screaming and all the windows were open. We could hardly breath during the overtime. It has been a really good series. :2thumbsup;
-
Good one Chris :rofl;
Congrats to your Canes Paris. I am missing all the good games.
It can only get more exciting :2thumbsup;
-
OK, Chris - it's ON!!! We already cooked us some ducks, what's a little hawk? GO WINGS!!!!
Congrats, Paris!!! Your team finally put away Boston. Those penguins are gonna be tough though!
-
Everyone predicted the Bruins to win. We love being the underdog and proving people wrong. I think any team that takes it now, deserves it. You have to respect the teams that are still playing. I love a good hockey game!!
-
They announced today that Scott Walker's wife has cervical cancer. How sad. The team will definately be effected by this. I feel bad for Scott and his wife. I pray she will have good results from treatments.
-
how about those Rockets
Springtime...
:flower;
flowers in full bloom, final exams, school coming to an end, and
PLAYOFFS!!!
:cheer: :cheer: :cheer:
To each their own, but SUHHH-WISHHHHHH!!!
B-BALL - how 'bout them Lakers? Sunday tells the tale!
:beer1;
-
Who won Saturday's game? I have slept all day and night Saturday.
-
I've been wondering where Chris was. Now I know. Sleeping... are you doing ok, Chris?
-
Wow, Chris! I am glad you finally got some sleep.
Oh, by the way Wings took away the first game from Chicago, 5-2. Here we go.
-
I've been wondering where Chris was. Now I know. Sleeping... are you doing ok, Chris?
Just being sick. Doc wanted to wait to admit me to see if I got better over the weekend. Which means I think I will make my yearly hospital stay.
-
Chris, Please be well soon.
-
Sorry to hear your not feeling well Chris.. get better soon.
-
Tinah, check out the link on click2houston.com. there is a live update on a kidnety transplant going on right now on twitter....
-
Paris - what a crazy game!!! it's Thursday, and I'm watching Pens vs Canes. Pens just scored, about halfway through the 3rd period. I can't believe how high the scores are, currently 5-4. wow!! I hope the Canes can pull this one off! I'm rooting for ya!
-
Those Penguins are tough! My boys need to come home and play like they know how! This is just too stressful!
-
The Lakers are driving me crazy. I never know which team will show up.
-
Sorry about your Canes, Paris. Your boys sure did give you a great playoff ride, until they hit the Penguin wall. I was really hoping for a Canes-Wings final. My Wings could make it to the finals if they win tonight. Keep your fingers crossed for them, and then we'll take care of those Penguins for ya.
The officials in our series have had a lot of controversy. Weird calls - some blatantly wrong. The Blackhawks lost their compusure in the last game, and spent a lot of time in the penalty box because of it. They could come out fighting tonight - it might get ugly. Wings are really great at keeping their composure and dealing with the controversy. Unfortunately, though, our 2 best players are on the injured list. The team runs deep, so we may still have a chance. But, it's gonna be a challenge!
-
I think the felt like they had lost my support last week, and couldn't play their best game!! :rofl; I love them and as long as we got further than Columbus, I am happy! :rofl; Penquins are a tough team and they deserved the wins. (where is Joe Paul, he lives in Pens area) So, we shall back the Wings now. Your town could use a lift in spirits with all the car stuff going on. Nothing like the Stanley Cup to cheer a town up :yahoo; :yahoo; It is always fun to see what each player does with it on their day to have it. One of our players had it at his wedding reception. Fun, fun.
-
GO PENS!!!!!! Nice flush out (sorry Paris), I was also wondering where Joe Paul was, he and I are both from Pittsburgh, I thought he would be jumping on this post. :yahoo; :yahoo;
-
It was a nail-biter, but we clinched it in overtime - on to the Stanley Cup finals!!!!!!!
OK, harley & Joe Paul - here we go. It's a rematch of last year's finals. Wings vs Penguins - it's gonna be a great match-up. Are you ready for it?
Go Wings!!!!!!
-
So which bird will be fried first? :rofl; :rofl; Then again, my team lost in OT.
-
Ducks - hawks - penguins ---- they all taste like chiken. :)
(I must admit I stole that from my clever niece)
GO WINGS!
-
Haha GO WINGS! Just for you.
(but no really go ducks!) Haha. Just giving you a hard time. I hope you guys kick some major butt.
-
One of these days, Manda! One of these days......
I :banghead;
-
I do like Duck sauce when I have mandarin orange chicken with rice. :2thumbsup; :rofl; :rofl; :rofl;
-
Always ready.... GO PENS, just love the play offs... but I think it is our turn to bring home the cup!! :2thumbsup;
-

:beer1;
-
I'm a Houstonian and still POed at the Lakers.
-
Sorry DW, but it's not so bad to have been eliminated by the team that goes all the way, so now ya know what you gotta do...
GO LAKERS!!!
:yahoo;
-
I have a friend with "connections" who is trying to get me a seat at Staples for one
one the games. I hope it works out. GO LAKERS!!
-
Wings pulled out a win last night! Woohoo!!! Game 2 is tonight. I can't believe NBC (Nothing But Crosby) is forcing them back-to-back. Oh well - makes for a great weekend for us fans.
GO RED WINGS!
-
As for the Lakers, can we have our coach back now? ;D
Didn't know NBC did that, but not surprised since it happens in NASCAR also.
-
The Wings took both home games. I gotta say WOOOHOOOOO! I'm so proud of my Wing Boys!!!! And we are having so much fun watching the games with friends and family. What a great time! I love being able to do dialysis at home, and sharing in these moments. During the games, I can't help but remember being in clinic and trying to watch the games on those tiny televisions, and not being able to share it with the family. I love the comments flying - the jokes - the jumping up at exciting moments - even the disappointments (even though those are rare with the Wings, chuckle, chuckle). I just love being able to share them again with my clan.
We are on to Pittsburgh, where I know it's gonna be even tougher, but hope we can at least pull out one win there. GO WINGS!
-
Cher...
I get joy from the joy in your posts. I don't follow sports...but I have a feeling that watching a game with you would be entertainment enough!
Rock on!!
-
I am totally lost on the game now. The sports coverage did not talk about hockey, just reminissed about how the Hawks "Missed it by that much" I watched the news while in chat and the extra sport coverage after the news, but no hockey or Nascar in the news, wtf kind of sports news are they! Well I did listen/watched parts of the race though.
-
:bandance;
Go Wings, Go!
They have the Spirit of Detroit statue dressed in a Wings jersey - did you see that?
-
Oh yeah!!! We try to go by it every year when it's dressed in the COOLEST JERSEY IN THE WORLD!! They just dressed it a couple of days ago - really had to go through some red tape this year to get it done. They just recently did a major restoration on the statue, and dressing it in jersey removes some of the finish. Therefore, the Wings themselves will pay the couple of thousand dollars to have it touched up when the jersey is removed. I'll have to dig up one of my pics of the Spirit of Detroit in the jersey and post it.
-
I have a friend with "connections" who is trying to get me a seat at Staples for one
one the games. I hope it works out. GO LAKERS!!
(so jealous) Make enough noise for both of us! Okarol, how 'bout you, are you able to go?
:beer1;
-
I'm starting the chant now for tonight. I hope they can hear me in Pittsburgh. Anyone is welcome to join me to make it as loud as possible.
LET'S GO RED WINGS.... clap, clap, clap-clap-clap..... LET'S GO RED WINGS... clap, clap, clap-clap-clap
-
Is that anything like Buffalo Wings? I'll take an order.
-
I'm cheering with you, Cherpep! :yahoo; After all the auto announcements lately, your town deserves something to celebrate! :bandance; :2thumbsup; :clap; :yahoo; :cheer:
-
My part time adopted wings are doing GREAT........
Witht that said i dont wanna see a shutout.
So i am going to cheer on Pittsburg till the series is tied up. Then ill go back to the wings.
Nothing better then a team who defends the cup :2thumbsup; :2thumbsup;
-
Go ducks! :Kit n Stik; :sir ken;
-
Way to win a game Pens. :thumbup;
Would love to see this series go to seven and have the wings win it at home... :2thumbsup;
-
Way to win a game Pens. :thumbup;
Would love to see this series go to seven and have the wings win it at home... :2thumbsup;
WHOA... Hold on there!! How about just 5 and have the wings win at home?! I would hate for this to go to a seven-game series. I just can't handle that stress!! You know, I blame you for the Wings' loss last night. Cheering them on...HA!...I'm so disappointed.
-
Let's go RED WINGS... clap, clap, clap-clap-clap :clap;
Tonight is game 4. The wings are up 2 games to 1. The Penguiins played pretty well on Tuesday, we had a hard time keeping the puck on our end. I'm hoping one of our biggest star players, Datsyuk, will be back in the lineup tonight. I'm also hoping that my favorite, Draper, will be back on the ice. It should be exciting.
paulkaren - who you cheering for tonight? In case you can't decide, let this help....
Let's go RED WINGS.... clap, clap, clap-clap-clap! (Try it, it's fun!) :)
-
Cherpep
I want the wings to take it home and be proud defenders of the cup.
But i also want them to do it in seven.
So lets go PENS clap clap clapclapclap...
You love hockey like so many of us. So a game seven would be a NAIL bitter and a great game :thumbup;
And it would be great to watch it with you. I bet you jump out of your seat alot huh :-)
WINGS IN SEVEN :yahoo;
-
It is fun to watch a game at our house, and you all are welcome. For Tuesday's game, we ended up having 15 people here watching it. Not to shabby for a mid-week game. I have no idea how many people will be here tonight, but I'm sure it will be plenty. We do a lot of jumping, that's for sure. The only thing that keeps me down is if I'm on dialysis - but I still raise my right arm, yell, and bang the wall.
I'd still rather it didn't go to seven games. Really, that's just way tooooo much stress. Let's keep it to 5, OK?! I'm so nervous, and the game is about to start. GO WINGS!!!!!!! :cheer:
-
Penguins 4 Wings 2 :thumbup;
-
It is about time you showed up to defend our PENS, Joe Paul, These games get better with each one can't wait until tomorrow night. What is up with NBC or CBS or whatever not letting it be brodcasted, that is just crazy. The Igloo was packed with people outside last night, they say over 12,000 watching outside the arena on a big screen they set up outside, but they will not be able to do the next game. That really sucks!!!! All in all we have had some great talent and scoring power... GO PENS! GO PENS! :yahoo; :yahoo; :yahoo; :yahoo; :yahoo; :beer1; :beer1; :beer1; :beer1; :beer1;
-
There is Joe Paul! I knew you would be here at some point! Harley has been waiting for you. Lots of good hockey being played right now. :2thumbsup;
-
I agree what is up with blacking out the friggen stanley cup games??? :stressed;
On the other hand my plan is in full swing as far as going to game (7)..
-
One down, three to go. GO LAKERS!
-
We can watch it from our homes or bars or wherever there is cable but at the Igloo (arena) they usually have a hugh screen set outside and thousands of fans show up and it is just a fun thing to do, but because it is an away game the lose advertising money so they don't do it.... we will still get to see it!! So glad to finally hear from you Joe Paul! :beer1; :beer1;
-
Cherpep,Joe Paul and Harley ---- my tv is on and the game will begin soon. I am cheering for everyone tonight. :yahoo; :2thumbsup; :bandance; :beer1;
-
And what a great game it was!!!!!!!! WOOOOHOOO!! Red Wings 5 - Penguins 0. One more to go.......
LET'S GO RED WINGS <clap> <clap> <clap clap clap>
On another note - I do think it's really cool how the fans have that lawn party outside the Igloo, and really nasty that NBC won't allow the game to be shown on the screen out there. That's ridiculous!! We really don't have anywhere outside the Joe for something like that - but the party inside, and in my basement, is GREAT!! Saturday's game had about 20 people over at my house. Many watched it on the big projected screen in the basement, and others trickled off and watched it on the TV in my family room. It was so much fun!!! We enjoyed a pregame BBQ, then settled in when the puck dropped. I guess there wasn't much 'settling', though, for that game. It was sheer electricity in my house and throughout Detroit.
Looking forward to Tuesday. We have an inflatable Stanley cup that no one is allowed to touch once the playoff games start. The boys were saying on Saturday that they can't wait to touch that cup again. Perhaps Tuesday.....
-
WOW total domination from start to finish...
Guess this is the last chance for the pens to tie it up and make it REALLY exciting.
Sounds like a good time at your house :clap;
-
The first quarter was OK but the Pens sucked and didn't play worth crap, they just could not move the puck.... I am hoping the game tomorrow will be more interesting, we will have to wait and see....GO PENS (I still have my faith). :yahoo; :yahoo; :beer1; :beer1;
-
:clap; :clap; :clap; :clap; :clap; :clap; :clap; :clap;
LET'S GO RED WINGS!!!
:clap; :clap; :clap; :clap; :clap;

Two down, two to go!! GO LAKERS!!!
-
When is the nest game for hockey? Tuesday right?
-
Tuesday night, 8:00 Eastern, NBC. On the big screen in Cherpep's basement. Red Wing jersey required, have extras on hand. :)
-
4 hour drive, be there about 4 pm OK? :2thumbsup;
-
OK! Side door is always unlocked for games. We don't answer the door - just come on down to the basement - follow the hoots and hollers!
-
Save a seat for me! I love playoff games! And there is nothing like seeing your team with the Stanley Cup in their hands! :2thumbsup;
-
If I was only healthy, I would actually do it, would be fu :2thumbsup;

Hubby pulled out the card table. He's put a white tablecloth on it. He has my son's old white gloves from marching band, and is hoping to move our inflatable stanley cup to the covered card table tomorrow night. He's so cute how excited he is.
Oh - also - he doesn't cook. But, today, on the way home from work, he stopped at a cake decorating store. He purchased a RED velvet cake mix, some white frosting, RED and white striped cupcake papers, some RED sprinkles, and some little RED WING jersey shapes to stick in the top of the cupcakes. I'm dialyzing right now, and he's upstairs making cupcakes!!! Don't worry, we have a baby monitor, I also have the telephone right here, and he comes downstairs every 5 minutes to be sure I'm OK. Isn't he adorable?!!
-
Pittsburgh may be down, but we aren't out. I'm not a huge hockey fan, but when Pittsburgh is involved that old Pittsburgh pride steps in - GO PENS!!
-
Who won? Haven't had the tv on all day and news is over for the night.
-
Who won? Haven't had the tv on all day and news is over for the night.
Pittsburgh 2 Wings 1 :thumbup;
-
:2thumbsup;
The plan has come together.
Well done Pittsburgh.
Now that it is tied up time for the wings to win the cup at home :beer1;
-
My Wings were sluggish in the first 2 periods, and even without the officials calling some blatantly obvious penalties, the Penguins deserved to win that game. So, it's a game 7 back at Detroit. I don't like game 7's, they are toooooo stressful. I'm no longer speaking to paul.karen.
-
I like game 7 when it doesn't involve my team! But, when it is MY team, it is very stressful. I would be sick with worry until it is all over. Cherpep, how were the cupcakes?
-
They were quite tasty. Hubby is not a chef, certainly not a baker, but he did an outstanding job on the cupcakes!! The company and food were both great - even if we didn't win the game. I guess we just get to do it all again on Friday. We'll also have a dish of TUMS available for the guests.
-
:Kit n Stik; Bad P&K........
Cherpep it is so much better to win in front of your homecrowd.
Stressful YUP but that also makes for a GREAT game. Both teams will (should) come with there A game.
From here on out I am (and have been) 100% behind the wings.
It will be ELECTRIC in that stadium, at my house and surely at your house.
LETS GO WINGS :thumbup; :yahoo; :clap; :2thumbsup; :beer1;
-
Just a small bump in the master plan. GO LAKERS
-
Let me try that.
Bad P&K!! :Kit n Stik;
OK, I feel better now. :)

Well Poop! I was all set to watch the Wings WIN, Tomorrow Night and then We get invited out to Dinner. Hubby, being the " Dialysior" I felt We needed to go, as He does not get out much, but as soon as the Wings, score, We are out of there! Would it be Rude to go to Dinner with a Radio and Earbuds in?
-
No way, would that be rude! We are talking a game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals!!! Anything Goes!!

I am in TEXAS.. But i am not a Spurs, & Mavs fan FAR FROM IT.. I am a DIE HARD HOUSTON FAN... WIN OR LOSE I LOVE MY TEAMS (ASTROS,TEXANS,ROCKETS, & DYNAMO). And I am proud of them we are the only team that gave the Lakers a run and I LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT. SORRY Just not a Laker FAN and not a MAGIC FAN EITHER Just like to pick on OKAROL (LOL)
-
I was scared during both the Houston and the Denver series , because you never knew which Laker team would show. They played poorly in some of those games, partly I'm sure because of the strength of the opposition, but also sometime they left their minds behind. They have been pretty consistent through this series. Over on Sunday. GO LAKERS
-
Tina is just jaded because Lakers RULE and the Rockets lost, but that's ok. Love you anyway. :bandance;
(GO LAKERS!) :yahoo;

With the digital switchover, I don't have NBC any more. I need a new antenna, I guess. Sooooooo - no game at home tonight for me. My sister is coming, and she's planning on dragging me off to a bar to watch the Wings. Darn it, if I have to sit in smoke to watch them, they better stinkin' win tonight!

Haha Tinah I am wiht you not a big Laker fan here myself. I kinda have a thing with getting away with rape..But you know that is just me..haha

The Lakers were not accused, one man was. Unless you were there... you don't actually know what happened, only he and his accuser does. Have you ever read the whole story? Here's an overview http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kobe_Bryant_sexual_assault_case - it's not as easy "getting away with rape" as you may think.
-
I agree, I just have issues with a team supporting a player who was "accused" as you put it. Like I said its just me.

How would you put it?

I would say by the fact that he payed her off and a few weeks after bought his wife a nice pretty big ring. That he pretty much did it.
-
Read the facts. He did not pay her. But you're entitled to your view.
-
Cherpep, Lived in MI. for 56 Years. Watched the Game Last Night. I feel Your Pain!

This is how I would put it: I went to a fight and a hockey game broke out!!! :boxing;
Jeez louise folks, give me basketball anyday!
We just went out and scoped out the neighborhood sports bars looking for the ideal place to watch tomorrowś game. The one we picked says "Magic" on its marquee. We'll be dressed in purple and yellow tomorrow night... it could get interesting.
SSSWISHHH, GO LAKERS!

That is how my dad put it many years ago when we went to our first and only hockey game. I wanted to stay, but he didn't want to stay. Turns out we should have stayed instead of sitting in the parking lot for over 2 hours because we were boxed in.

My daughter's graduation is during the game - and the party afterward is at our house! I will try to catch the game - it's going to be tough not to sneak off to watch some - YAY TIVO!!
Go Lakers!! :yahoo;
-
GO MAGIC!!!!
-
Is the Magic from Orlando or did they move the franchise the last time I kept track of basketball years ago.

It was a sad night for us on Friday, but you gotta hand it to those Penguins - they sure did earn the cup!! I still love my Wings, and although it was a disappointing night, it was one heck of a season!! We sure did enjoy the run. The Penguins wanted it more. I don't think it was right that Crosby didn't do the handshaking with his team. That was poor sportsmanship and I lost some respect for him. For his teammates, I gained respect. Good job Penguins!! How about next year, we try a 2 out of 3?

Way to stay positive Cherpep... :thumbup; :2thumbsup;
-
Well said cherpep.
it isnt like making it to the finals two years in a row is easy. Then again both teams did it huh :waiting;...
I didnt see Crosby not shake hands but tuned out after time expired. Plus you guys rocked his boat pretty good. Was a great series and a good way to end the year even without the cup. I thought they may tie it at the end there, the last puck drop with seconds to go.
Looking for my broadstreet bullies to rebuild and come back strong next year.
To the pen fans :2thumbsup; :clap; Good season..
-
Just who does Sid Crosby think he is, LaBron James?
LAKERS, WORLD CHAMPIONS
-
What is a laker???????
-
What is a laker???????
That's what California had a few of, a lake r 2 :rofl; :rofl;
Who's Sid Crosby? ??? ??? :rofl; :rofl;
-
I'm not sure who Sid Crosby is, but here's Cindy Crosby.
(I apologize if this offends someone, it truly is just intended to be all in good fun)
-
Cherpen, are you sure that's not Cindy Brady all grown up? :rofl; :rofl; :rofl; :rofl;
I know who Sid Ceaser is, does that count?
-
I know what a laker is! It's one of those things that freezes up so people can play hockey!
-
:rofl; :clap; :2thumbsup;
Now that made me LOL :thumbup;
thx i needed that
-
I still don't know why when sport franchises change cities they don't change their names to
something more appropriate to the new city. When the New Orleans Jazz moved to Salt Lake City
they should have become the Saints in honor of the Latter Day Saints. Then when the Hornets moved
to New Orleans they could have become the Jazz. I am still looking for suggestions on what the
Minneapolis Lakers should have become when they moved to L.A. Please don't beat me up too much
with the names, please, please.
-
2 million dollars for the mess with the Laker Championship celebration! Can we let it go? It is after all JUST a basketball GAME!
-
Just glad I don't live in te city where that might happen. Would hate to have my car vandalized over something stupid. It is not like Lakers have never won before either. Geez, imagine if the Cubs ever won the World Series, all the village idiots will be out in force that night and the day of the celebration.
