Someone in the Penguins PR department is developing our sense of humor. While the San Jose Sharks still win for the best ever fake Christmas CD [video], followed by the Blackhawks and Toews’ HOF derp-face [video], this year’s holiday effort by the Penguins is pretty hilarious. Video: Pittsburgh Penguins 2013 Holiday Card Made during Movember, […]
I’m mad at you! I am still so mad at you for what you did that I don’t even want to see your… GLASSES????? Holy moly. There’s only one explanation for this. James Neal reads this blog. I’m not kidding when I say I’m still mad. James Neal and I need to have a long […]
While it’s not quite puppies (okay, here’s Tyler Seguin with Marshall), let’s talk about something fun. Like the Saturday after Thanksgiving when I woke up with a stomach bug, barfed 20 times and still dragged my ass 3 hours to Long Island. Why would I do such a thing? To be in the front row for […]
I don’t remember how this guy came to my attention, but when I almost Foxy Friday’d him a few weeks ago, he was injured (like everyone else). Now he’s back and refreshed my memory in the best possible way – by scoring last night against the Rangers. So here you have it, friend. Foxy Friday: […]
I need an ugly Christmas sweater for a party Saturday night. Anyone have one I can borrow? Video: Happy Holidays from Your Washington Capitals This year, remember that Christmas isn’t just about onesie pajamas and Joel Ward cracking up from the very first frame. There is a deeper meaning. Like when Ovi says, “Hey guys, […]
What is life with all these PUPPIES?! Bless the Blackhawks, every one. 2014 Calendar Shoot Teaser – Chicago Loves Pits Warning: Video guaranteed to ruin your productivity and any current search for a real-life boyfriend. 100% increase in likelihood of pet adoption. They really know how to dole it out in increments, these guys. *sigh*
Get it, like Mikey Monday? Well I can maniacally laugh now because the Caps just won an overtime comeback victory, but look at this: That would be 18 penalty minutes in under 12 minutes of game time. Mike Green: Time Turner. Making time out of time that hasn’t happened yet because he has that many […]
I hate everything lately, but Jonathan Toews is making a real effort to turn the blog around. First he hugs a puppy, then he and Kaner do one of the best interviews I’ve ever read: Kane and Toews Face Off – ESPN Magazine What is this? Is this dancing? The story about Kane waking Toews […]
You guys are relentless. GIVE US PUPPIES! I think this wins for the most emails, comments, pings, forwards and IMs I’ve ever gotten saying POST THIS NOW. Okay, okay! We don’t just sit around the house and blog, you know? (Yesterday I totally did.) Just when we need someone who can be counted on to […]
I suppose we need to talk about this. I really don’t want to. I hate the Bruins. Chuck hates the Penguins. And while there’s plenty to shout about the opposition in last night’s debacle, it left more than enough responsibility for our own teams. Two incidents, two aggressors, two outcomes. I’ll leave it to Chuck […]
We will never hear the end of this one. Only kidding. Congratulations Intern Jeff Skinner on his first career hat trick! Look how excited everyone is! Especially Jordan! Especially us! And these people in the Intern Jeff Skinner Fan Club – Nashville Chapter! (Psst: We told you so.) Forget that. More exclamation points!!!!! Jeff […]
The holiday season is here! We have stuffed our faces and basked in food coma. We’ve broken out the ski socks and mittens. I watched 5 straight episodes of Covert Affairs before bothering to check if I could fast forward the commercials. Now that we’re back after American Thanksgiving, everyone is ready to work: Movember is […]
Before you look at these photos, go to the Animal Rescue League website and order a Penguins & Paws 2014 Calendar. Support adorable, fuzzy faces of the four-legged variety! Huge thanks to @alisonsykora‘s mom Heidi, who took pictures of every page with her phone for us. She likes James Neal the best because she’s a […]
If you’ve been reading us for a while, you know there are moments where I seem to control the universe. The Penguins being down 2-0 is not one of them. Certainly not to the Bruins. Out of love for Chuck, I generally keep my Bruins opinions to myself and I’m sure she swallows some bitter […]
We have referred to ourselves as JamesNeal.com in the past, and I think we’ve done a pretty good job cheerleading our favorite gingerbeard. Now there is actually a JamesNeal18.com and honestly, it rhymes. The whole glorious homepage is a Real Deal rhyme scheme. I cannot compete with that. What James’ new official site does not […]
Last Friday, I struggled to choose a Foxy Friday who was healthy and playing. One man heard my plea, and so returned to the lineup that very night. A real American hero. Foxy Friday: Paul Martin Paul missed two games to injury, getting back in the lineup on 11/15 with an assist in the Pens […]
SCENE: Thursday, 1 A.M. Too tired to sleep and still punch drunk from watching the Penguins in person, Pants scrolls through Instagram. CUT TO: Point of view shot of Pants’ phone. CUT TO: Reaction shot. Hold for 20 minutes. END SCENE. Sometimes, I just lose it (ex: Matt Niskanen and That is Not a Turtle) […]
I hate the Rangers as much as I love a good ad campaign, and this is a good ad campaign. Oh Ginger Staal. It’s too bad you’re the only Staal I’ll never like because I would like to like you. (Crank the volume on this one.) “Don’t pick a chain restaurant. ” Bahahaha. Marc, […]
When we don’t post for a few days, it’s safe to say we’re either a) really busy or b) laughing so hysterically over the cat face in #21 of 35 Greatest Animal Photobombers of All Time that we can’t type. Yet through our tears, we see big events are happening. Tonight, the man we call Squishy […]
By popular demand, repeated Tweets and just an overall campaign of “WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?!”, today’s selection is the NHL’s Most Likely to Be Suggested. Foxy Friday: Brandon Bollig Why does Brandon get so many nominations? Could it be: – The perfect beard? – Stylish outfits? – His excellent taste in music? – Putting […]
