Mike Green is Love.

Okay, I wrote the whole post below before I saw this video feature that Mike did with NBC in DC. Mike makes lunch, wears a bracelet, does a puzzle and talks about seeing a sports psychologist over the summer. I will turn this whole world into the Mike Green Fan Club if I have my […]

We Feel Pretty

On Sunday, the Penguins were down 3-0 to the Senators in the 3rd period.  But the power of the mustache prevailed – Crosby got a goal with 3+ minutes left to keep the streak (and the stache) alive. I have to say Sid must drink a lot of milk because his skin is amazing. [Today’s […]

Darryl Sutter steps down

Darryl Sutter has resigned his post as GM of the Calgary Flames amid the tougher-than-usual season they are having.  Their current record of 16-18-3 ranks them 14th of 15 teams in the Western Conference.  They’ve scored more goals (100) than the 6 teams above them in points, and their goals-against is just 6.7 above the […]

So long, Christmas.

I never did a Christmas post this year and now holiday candy is 75% off at Walgreens and they’ve finally stopped the music loop in the mall.  I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend.  If you live on the east coast, I hope you enjoy shoveling.  Until next year… I didn’t make this, but I […]

Mikey Monday: Showstopper

Happy post-Christmas food coma, everyone!  I hope you enjoyed Thursday’s Penguins vs. Capitals shoot out stunner – if that doesn’t get you excited for the Winter Classic, you’re a Scrooge. Oh Mike.  Stealing the show on 24/7 with your Vespa and then coming alive on the scoreboard for the big game! We love it, baby. […]

24/7 Episode 2: "Adorkable"

My girl Kimmy has coined the perfect phrase to describe Mike Green, Sid and half the rest of the Pens and Caps on HBO’s 24/7 Episode 2: ADORKABLE. It’s absolute perfection. If I had the setup, I would have stayed up ALL night screencapping   Until then, here are the highlights that I can remember screaming […]

Merry Christmas to Me!

Santa has come early!  Do you think this store sells trampolines? Because I would like to… [censored]. French fries, French toast… *faints* OMG SID IS WEARING A VEST. Unexplainable squees. Posted because Sid *just* extended his streak to 22 games.

Negative, Ghost Rider.

Once again, the internet is alive with rumors of Martin Brodeur on the trading block.  The Devils are like Desperate Housewives and their Wisteria Lane is a dead end.  Personally, I don’t give two Jersey-shaped cowpies if they trade Marty.  But here’s why it won’t be for Mike Green. 1: MONEY Green is no cheap […]

Second Place is the First…

I have moved up to 2nd place in my fantasy hockey league!  Granted I had a lot of players on the ice last night, but I’ll take it.  My team was lurking around 5th for a long time but we are as hot as the Penguins right now. I’d like to thank Dustin Byfuglien, Patrick […]

Over Capacity

A hundred years ago I started a “Who to Follow” on Twitter post for NHL players, media and personalities.  I’m getting to it shortly, I promise. As the Coyotes play in Pittsburgh tonight, they posted this item about who loves former Penguin (and Foxy Friday) @BizNasty2point0‘s Twitter feed.  The answer: everyone. Not very many NHL […]

Mikey Monday – FTW!

Well well, the Capitals won a game. Even I am breathing a sigh of relief because I don’t like to see people get humiliated.  It’s one thing to lose 8 in row when your sad panda face is not all over HBO.  Plus, I don’t want to hear excuses when they play the Penguins on […]

Awkward Turtles!

No need to set your DVRs for Monday – the Sid & Ovi Price is Right appearance video is here.  And it is weird. Sidney, why are you wearing your shoulder pads?  You’re jacked but that is silly.  And reading the cue cards… sigh.  When Ovi’s unintelligible English is doing a better job delivering lines […]

Right back @ ya.

I hate the Rangers, but I love this photo.  I love this idea!  Someone is being adorbs today. All teams should do this when they add someone to Twitter: welcome @michaeldelzotto. Our resident NYR fan Stephanie is doing her happy dance.

HBO 24/7… We Wish

The only way to properly sum up the awesomeness of Penguins/Capitals: Road to the Winter Classic is to treat you to the real-time Twitter conversation between me and Dawn last night.  Please note, I had to rewatch the entire show because I was giggling so much the first time. The Penguins watched the show as […]

Buy Me Something Nice

I just sit here and laugh all day.  Everyone thinks I’m crazy but they can’t see this.  It’s from the Penguins Online Store, where you can buy my Christmas present.  The title of this series is Awkward Turtle.  Sid looks stiff as a board and really, Geno?  They had to photograph him in various stages […]

Best $10 I Ever Spent

It is time!!  Better than Christmas morning.  Call up your cable provider (I just did) and add HBO for $10/month so you can watch Penguins/Capitals Road to the Winter Classic on 24/7, starting tonight.  Yesterday, HBO promised us so much vulgarity that you should “hide your kids.”  If I had kids, they’d say, “F&$% that, […]

Showcase Showdown

Sid, Ovi and Jeremy Roenick will make a guest appearance on The Price is Right on Monday, December 20.  I saw this as a Tweet last night and thought I must be hallucinating.  Apparently not. The trio will introduce an NHL-themed showcase that includes a trip to Pittsburgh for the highly anticipated 2011 Bridgestone NHL […]

Christmas. Hockey. Irish.

WUYS BFF Cassy spent all day yesterday making sure good little boys and girls were treated to this Christmas delight.  I used to think the Blackhawks had the most fun, with their popsicle eating contests and fake beards, but I was wrong.  The Belfast Giants are the most fun hockey team on Earth.  Super-mega-ultra bonus […]

Mikey Monday

Fidget has the flu, which kept him out of last night’s spanking by the Rangers.  Dawn always says they can’t play without him.  We volunteer our in-home nursing services and hope Mike is better for Wednesday’s game vs. Anaheim. Back on Nov 29, the Capitals did a team building day at the FBI training facility […]

Weekend Warriors

My power to influence the universe continues to impress – I pick Ryane Clowe for Foxy Friday and what happens? He scores 2 goals vs. the Blackhawks on Saturday night and singlehandedly wins the game!  He’s named NHL  First Star of the Week!  I should start gambling. Alas, I am mad at Ryane because he […]
