Just when I was complaining that there’s nothing to talk about… So what, right? Biz in his panties, what else is new? There’s also a Playboy Playmate featured in the photo shoot. I haven’t seen the pics because the very idea just gave my computer an STD. Look again. WHAT? We used to be a […]
Remember hockey? That’s it. No man candy this week, just saves and goals and hits and shots and the new all-time low I hit every single day while we wait for this to end. How bad is it? I’ll even take highlights set to Nickelback. I’d take Nickelback themselves right now, provided they brought […]
The lockout is making people CRAZY. First Toews is using a baseball bat for hockey and Giroux, a golf club. Crosby’s wandering free in civilian clothes, striking fear into the heart of pockets everywhere (and fangirl sobs into ours). Patrick Kane took his mom to Switzerland, for heaven’s sake. Now I’ve figured out where Intern […]
If you got 21 seconds with Jonathan Toews, is this how you would spend it? I used to be a ski racer. I can have someone out of that much gear with time left over for hot chocolate. Bauer hired Toews, Kane, all the Staals (sorry Jared) AND Giroux to star in their new […]
Our love for Movember comes in many forms. On one hand it’s gives us warm & fuzzies to see hockey players doing something fun to raise money and awareness for a good cause. Also, we like to see people looking silly. We’ve even gone so far as to suggest some people should take donations not […]
We’ve already considered how John Hughes movies explain the world (The Breakfast Club, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off). He wrote and/or directed the on-screen version of any teen-angst, awkward-crush, hysterically nervous feeling you can have. Need more proof? From the CCM Pro Summit Camp video in Vail, it’s Pretty in Pink: The Battle for Colorado. Starring […]
Tracy P (@T_A_Pthat) is not the first to suggest this Foxy Friday, but her DM yesterday reminded me of something. Lots of teams visiting the Caps stay at the hotel next to my office. It’s prime territory for an awkward lunch-break encounter with hockey players that no one else recognizes. One day last year, Gator […]
As if the lockout wasn’t bad enough, Steven Stamkos hates me. He seems to think that in this terrible time, I should suffer even more. I’m not even talking about those pants. A beard?! Stopityouarekillingme! How dare you look this charming and reference the playoffs when the only hockey I can get is reruns of […]
While the East Coast was stockpiling batteries and Twizzlers on Friday in anticipation of Frankenstormpocalypse, the Chicago Blackhawks and friends were playing in the Champs for Charity hockey game. Photos from the Chicago Tribune They look as happy as I feel, and I wasn’t even there! All it takes is a little hockey. Even Jon […]
Well someone’s playing hockey – and having a lot of fun doing it. If you think that I saw this link on Twitter last night, got out of bed and went to my computer to watch it with better video quality, you guessed right! Emilio Estevez – Post-Game [link] In which he calls a teammate […]
Yesterday, Mike asked: So are we, my friend. While we’re sure Mike would look be great at lifting heavy things around the WUYS office, some actual work must be done here. We can’t just be watching the help all day long, asking them to get things off high shelves and turning the heat up full […]
I can’t do a Foxy Friday when I’m this upset. Furious Friday, maybe. You can read all about the depressing turndowns of the NHL and NHPLA competing offers at yesterday’s meetings in Toronto. I have seen enough. The NHL took a swing at the PR tide by announcing a 50/50 offer to the NHLPA. It’s […]
The NHLPA and NHL cannot get anything done. Neither can I. Only the reasons are different. The NHL sees this photo and says: So you think you can dance? The NHLPA posts this photo and says: Goonies never say die. I see this photo and say: Where is my damn Mexicola, Intern Jeff Skinner?! […]
I seem to have failed, through all the posts and games and screaming fits, to truly appreciate one aspect of hockey’s influence on my life: stress relief. Sure I get worked up about the games – rip a pillow, maybe throw a shoe – but it vents all my work frustration at the same time. […]
Bored with the lockout, Mike and I are both rebound-dating the NFL. Yesterday we watched the Ravens game. Only difference is, he was there. I was at a pumpkin patch on a hay ride with no hay. It’s a metaphor for my life. from www.RussianMachineNeverBreaks.com Don’t start sticking your hands in your pockets now, buddy. […]
Long before this happened, Berlin was one of my favorite cities I’ve ever visited. Now… Gingeroux and Legolas have arrived in Berlin play for the Ice Bears (that’s Eisbaren for those of you translating at home). They’ve begun practicing with the team. I’ve begun wondering when Coca-Cola is going to sue someone for making their […]
The girls are all in a tizz on the Twitter over this Crosby video, and now I can finally see why. DAMN COLORADO, what is in your water? Is that why Gabe is so Gabe all the time? We thought it was Sweden. Sid has never looked better… he even seems fit to burst out […]
So it’s Monday morning and I’ve already torn my jeans and gotten the wrong ice tea from Dunkin Donuts. Everyone in DC is off work except for me, because the movie industry does not care about the alleged discovery of the New World. Sorry Columbus. There’s only one way to save this Monday: New Mike […]
The moral of this story is that Tyler Seguin still isn’t wearing a shirt. Adorable family, but where is Marshall the puppy? Does he have an iPad so we can Face Time?
You might be our only hope. Today is Mario Lemieux’s 47th birthday. While I’m not in the habit of liking any owners during a lockout, I have to do something to celebrate Le Magnifque’s existence and the fact that pushing 50, he’s still super foxy. If you’re old like we are, Mario Lemieux has been […]
