Secondly, way before this blog and 24/7, MAF caught my eye because a fan put a sign up against the glass for him to ‘spin like a ballerina’ so he did!
Mr. Cherrie and I were actually watching that game and I thought it was absolutely ADORABLE but got death ray eyes from Mr. Cherrie to ever THINK a Penguin was adorable. THAT WAS NOT ALLOWED! But after watching 24/7’s 4th episode I had mentioned to Pants that MAF reminded me of the Macdonald’s commercial in Canada – the goalie Sweet Petite. Now Puck Daddy is mentioning that same thing! But I forget that not everyone can watch the CBC. So for your viewing pleasure …
But back to the Caps, Kris Letang nailed my beloved Ovi in the Winter Classic and there is an AWESOME photo of it. While I cringed at the hit, it was beautiful and you didn’t see Ovi whine about it. He took it like a man and I’m sure Kris will have to keep his head up the next time they meet. Although I wouldn’t have minded getting between the two of them! What a tasty treat that would have been! 😉
But honestly, the person who stole 24/7 was Mike Green and his Vespa. SERIOUSLY. I know we posted this already but I can’t get enough of it. He got a goal and an assistant on Saturday. Ovi scored like his bad ol’ self too. I think you should make this your cell phone background just because it’s screamin’ awesome!

Dawn, I am going to store this nugget up and threaten to use it against you one day. Like if you go and yell to Ovi that I like him. 😀
Go ahead … 🙂 He’ll forgive me. Too many shots to the head! HAHAHAHHA! 😉
Ballerina! I just watched that 10 times – he cracks me up. I want an audio file of Flower in the WC practice shoot-out as my ring tone: “Come down here, you bastard!”
PS: Left-handed writing looks so awkward. Look at Tanger trying to sign! I have been fascinated by watching my dad do it all my life.
I’m a lefty (OK, so ambidextrous) and I write like right-handed people do, just left-handed – not with that weird rolled over weird claw thing they all have going on.
Bergy does it too.
Also lefty. Saw him signing autographs 😀
We lefties ROCK
I’m a lefty too … I also write like a righty, Catholic upbringing. 😉 The Sistas made me …. That only makes me love Tangers more! HAHAAHA It doesn’t look weird to me. also … I can only hope they put MAF on audio. I would totes LOVE that on my phone. Totally true about the sign thing. Fell in love with him after that. any dude that would spin like that is AWESOME in my book!
You’re BOTH lefties?! I had no idea we were in such rare company. And Bergy too, of course. I tried to teach myself once – I was about 9 and totally sure I was going to be in the circus – but failed. Perhaps I’ll re-adopt the hobby.
PS (again): New sign plan. “Do a triple sow cow” (But can you do one without a toe pick?) How about a sit-spin?
oooh … me likes. And I bet he can do it. I spent HOURS last night in complete rapture watching video of MAF. He cracks me up. He is adorkable. Mr. Cherrie was NOT amused but oh well. and BTW – we have all those goalie sticks but I wasn’t allowed to burn Count von counts… LOL!
The idea of you spending hours watching MAF videos cracks me up. Have you seen the one where they make him do his impression of Sacha Baron Cohen in Talladega Nights? “I’ll get you Ricky Bobby!” Top comedy.
