If there’s one thing I like more than hockey, it’s food. Last night the Capitals Fan Appreciation Night had free hockey AND free food. So of course we were in the front row. Rockin’ the Red with Rae and Pam For this… BAM! No beard. Hallelujah and also merci. I’ll give you the hair, Greener, […]
A funny thing happened at the Seahawks game last night. Yes, I said Seahawks, as in football. Why would I be at football game? Free tickets. Other than that? THIS! But first, I did not know it was mascot night until there he was, in all his fin-tabulous glory, floundering away on the jumbotron. Of course, I […]
So I’ve scoured the internet and there is like a BLIP one DD’s day with destiny. If it were, er, um, other hockey players day with Lord Stanley’s cup we’d get a minute by minute count down on what he did while out saving babies and evidently puppies. So I’ve decided to give the only […]
How have we never not done him? Well, I mean a Foxy Friday at least? Cause I’ve .. well. Anywho. Hot mess of hockey hair goo-goo-goodness is EVERYTHING a Foxy Friday should be and more. If a picture speaks a 1000 words then it’s a wonder the internet hasn’t exploded when a picture of this man is […]
If any of you have watched NBC’s Post Game wrap-up, then you know Other-Brother-Darryl needs to take that sh*t on the road! Because having handled talent and sat through countless hours of interviews and seen press chewed up and spat out by the best, Other-Brother-Darryl ranks right up there only he is god damn funny […]
My cats have banned me from the TV. Osiris Jones actually mews at anyone who swears. True Story. And there was a ton of it tonight. I swear like a sailor and many of Mr. Cherrie’s friends think I learned it from him but actually, I taught him pretty much everything he knows. My grandfather worked […]
We’re trying to keep Foxy Fridays to players still in the playoffs, since summer is long and cruel. The pickings are getting a little slim. But imagine if, say, the Wild had made it this far? Blank pages, people. Chuck is busy at her real job today (borrrrring!), so I’m honoring her turn by choosing […]
Last night’s game was like the first episode of The Bachelorette. 25 suitors vying for one slightly used but marginally OK single mom. Not a lot of rough stuff – Shane Doan with yet another penalty, a few taunts, a couple of chest puffs but all in all, a tight game with one impression rose […]
The Kings devastated the Coyotes last night in more ways than one. The Coyotes bit back and not in a nice way. I was going to take the high road in this post and talk about how adorable Antoine Vermette was in his pre-game interview but then the Coyotes took a page from the Penguin’s book […]
So the LA King’s have lost only one play-off game so far … No, that is not a typo. ONE. Coach Dave Tippett of the Coyotes, seems to be the only other person on the planet besides me, the only LA KINGS fans (OK – I know there are like – four of us) who know […]
Lying dead on the floor in front of my TV was not an ideal Saturday night, but at least I wasn’t the only one. I won’t get down on the Caps for their game seven performance because it’s not what I want to remember all summer. This year, I watched more hockey than ever. I […]
I’m in love AGAIN! But that’s OK. It happens all the time. Y’all are used to it by now. With the hunt for Lord Stanley in full swing the rest of the World has this going on. Look closely for the dancing ping pong players circling in the background. There are better things I can […]
For those of you keeping count, last night the Jawas sent Chewie and the Ewoks packing. I think there was a grand disturbance in the force when Chewie tapped into the dark side and smashed Hans Solo’s head into the boards in an earlier series and sometimes karmic galactic payback is a bitch. Chewie will now be able […]
Happy Foxy 40th Martin Brodeur! I might be a day late but don’t think I missed your game winning awesome play! Welcome to the Foxy 40 club with Teemu Selane, Mike Modano (before he retired) and some others. As you might have guessed, I’m not a really big fan of teams in general per se, I don’t […]
The great oracle Orisis Jones was right as far as part of the West Coast goes: Not since 1993 have the LA Kings been to a conference final and that was when the Great One played for them – as in Wayne Gretzky. The Kings have swept the #1 and #2 seed and yet the […]
The Kings have lost only ONE play-off game to date. And after listening to the announcers last night, could they have made anymore snide/ weight remarks? Let me count them down for you: Doughty certainly is a well-rounded player Doughty just skated down the Blues bench and told them they’d have to be quicker than […]
I wish you guys could have seen me last night. In a bar with twelve tables, eleven were filled with Bruins fans. My dad and I, in my Backstrom shirt, were at the other. The waiter didn’t bother to ask, he just kept the beers coming. When Joel Ward scored, I jumped out of my […]
Since Pants loves to blame her Caps obsession on me, I can only return the favor by blaming my Kris Letang obsession on her. I would have NEVER known about ANY Pittsburgh Penguin EVER if she hadn’t e-mail bombed me relentlessly photos of Kris Letang. And now I am helpless, helpless I tell you. So a WUYS HAPPY 25th […]
So the Kings making it past Vancouver was like this happening … And it was all because of the guy with the most AWESOME hair this side of the Mississippi! And I can attest from seeing it in person. HOLY CRAP! It deserves a post of its own – hell, it deserves a facebook page of its […]
Chuck and I are not talking about the Bruins/Caps series. At all. It’s actually working out, as we restrict ourselves to screaming at televisions and telling our problems to bartenders, strangers and anyone unlucky enough to gchat us. I have discovered a hatred for the Bruins that I never knew existed, and I can only […]
