Deep Dish!

I know I’ve been slacking!  Lindsay is all over this. David Toews got swapped to the Blackhawks and has moved into Jonanthan’s apartment.  Sorry ladies, he’s in your spot.  Here’s Jon talking about how you can someday be a better roommate that Little Bro.  He even cracks a joke in this video – it makes […]

I Love You, Tomorrow.

Mr. Pants needs to be on the Food Network so I can retire and just blog all day.  There are so many good things! You’ve all heard by now that the Crosbot is practicing with the Pens.  He’s not cleared for contact, but aren’t you just glad to see this face?! Here’s the post-practice interview […]

Mikey Monday: Part II

Here at Mike Green World Domination HQ,  we are REALLY excited about there being a hockey game today.  So we had a staff meeting, and said “What could be even better?  Let’s go for the extra dose of awesome.” Here it is, in the form of Mike pushing a little girl on a swing.  While wearing moccasins. […]

Mikey Monday: Back in Action

I’m late again this week, because my Vespa broke down and I had to wait for Brooks to come and fix it (in a suit, in the rain).  No really I was at a wedding this weekend.  Caps training camp started and @spanrows sent us lovely evidence that Mikey sharpened his hair during the off season. […]

Jonathan Toews has 1 suit.

We here at WUYS admire a guy who can pack light.  Chuck is in Scotland right now, with like 2 pairs of pants and 1 sweatshirt.  Should have asked Tazer for tips.  (Note to Stamkos, at least Tazer knows how to iron!) At the NHL Store event with Stamkos: At the Media Tour launch the […]

Meanwhile, 2 miles away…

Right now, right down the street, Mikey and Nicky are building a playground. SERIOUSLY. I should be speeding up Rhode Island Ave NW right now in my dress and heels.  Maybe Nicky has a pair of stripey red shorts I can borrow.  Why do I not know about these things in advance?  Why am I […]

Not to brag, but…

While I was busy watching a Hugh Jackman movie last night, the Ghost in the Machine was drawing my fantasy hockey team.  I want this higher power to pick my outfits – look at this beauty! When I named my team for Mike Green, that automatically meant I wouldn’t get him.  Happened last year with […]

Tazer Coming Through

I shouldn’t be laughing!  Bad Pants!  This kid is really selling it though. Quick, someone else fall down and need a hug.

Mikey Monday: SOLD

Sorry I’m late!  Jeez, Mondays are tough.  This is a special edition for Elisha! Today at Rookie Camp, Caps prospect Garret Mitchell did an interview [link].  Strangely no one asks him if he’s willing to be MG52’s stunt double and understudy.  He’s clearly trying to make the team by emulating someone. But let’s be honest, […]

We said COME IN!

The rest of the Pens also participated in season ticket delivery – but none appear to have eaten a cookie.  If only they’d known Crosby said it was okay! Check out Jordan’s goober wave as he approaches the first house. [link] And the tween girls who get their picture with him.  Their lives just peaked. Flower […]

Crosby Eats a Cookie

Every year this happens, and it isn’t to me. Of course if he came to my house, Mr. Pants would open the door in a Caps shirt (or better, my girl-sized Crosby jersey).  There would be banging and scuffling from the closet.  They would pretend to ignore it until the muffled sounds of ‘O Canada’ could […]

Wake Up, Wake Up!

Last night, Dawn mastered the art of Inception and messed with my dreams. First, I dreamed that I had a baby.  With Ovechkin. Luckily the dream started immediately post-delivery – dreaming the baby-making or the delivery would have woken me screaming.  But Ovi was really sweet (Stop it, Dawn!) and even though we weren’t married, […]

Baby, We Laich It.

Deb submitted this video with the Tweet “Brooks Laich showing Tanger up in the workout department.” Ladies, discuss. My first thought was, “Ha ha (insert Beavis and Butthead laugh), they said ‘lower body’.” Then (out loud), “Stop, you’re hurting my knees!” and then “Why are you wearing a life preserver?”  It is, of course, a weight […]

Birthday Boy: Jordan Staal

It’s JStaal’s birthday!  Jordan turns 17 today (okay 23).  He got a birthday post last season, but we never get tired of this guy.  And he knows it. Last season, Jordan has some injury issues.  He might be as clumsy as me and Chuck, but we’re not 6’4″ and don’t have quite so far to […]

Dream Team

Just to give you guys an idea of what we’re missing: Tazer with the open buttons all week and Steven with the hair.

NHL Media Tour Reception

It’s obviously a tough time for everyone in the wake of the KHL plane crash, and I think NHL.com did a nice job of highlighting last night’s Media Tour reception with a really toned-down video [link].  Kudos to them. There are quick shots of Kaner, Ovi, Shane Doan, Squishy, Corey Perry, Logan Couture (short hair!) […]

Sidney Crosby, We Love You.

Sidney Crosby is going to be okay.  He’ll play again.  We don’t know when. Just seeing him made us feel so much better about the world.  Plus, this press conference is 100 times more informative than Bettman’s concussion speech at the All-Star Game.  They are hopeful but not blindly so, and confident. A CBC reporter […]

Sidney Crosby Prayer Circle

Something is up today.  I mysteriously turned off my alarm without knowing and was woken by a bird that sounded exactly like R2D2 just as I dreamed of crash landing in a swamp in the Dagobah System. Then I poured OJ in my Cheerios.  Seriously. It must be the event I’ve been trying to ignore […]

MY LIFE SO HARD

ARE YOU KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW?  I know it’s media week but this is the best combo since drinking your Coke through a Twizzler straw! Gator will be away and I have a work event… both of which should be cancelled immediately.  We should have the Nealmobile loaded up with snacks and gas and be […]
