All About the Benjamins

Jonathan Toews scored his 100th career goal on Sunday.  Way to go, JTown! Blackhawks TV did a nice little “Milestone Minute” on the event [Video] and it made me teary-eyed.  He is the 4th-youngest Blackhawk to reach the century mark… wait.  WHAT?  Jonathan Toews is 22 years old and three guys beat him to the […]

Mikey Monday!

  So I got left alone in the WUYS offices today while Pants and Chuck run amuck on the East Coast! I got left with cold coffee, stale do-nots and a post-it note from Pants saying “MM please”. I am assuming that means I’m left with Mikey Monday. God knows he didn’t do anything last night in […]

Pens All-Star Lineup

The Pens have an All-Star reaction video up [Video].  It looks like the Grinch snuck in and cleared out their locker room. We can’t get 10 extra seconds to let Tanger talk?  Bonus clip of him licking his lips while Sid talks – he could be thinking what I’m thinking. Apparently The Hat has not […]

Back in Black.

Jonathan Toews is a stud. Two weeks?  Hell no.  He’s be back on the ice right now vs. Los Angeles because he didn’t get the message that Steph and I cancelled our trip when he got hurt.  So we’re here, and he’s there.  Communication fail. We should be sitting with his mom in the box […]

Mikey Monday

Mike was a little quiet during the Winter Classic, but not surrounding the Winter Classic.  In fact, he orchestrated getting a friend on the ice for the family skate to propose to his girlfriend!  How cute is that?! [Story] We watched the game at Giordano Bros. in SF, our fave Pittsburgh bar.  I had to […]

Here's Your Prize

Okay, the Caps won the Winter Classic.  Hissssssssssssss.  I got over it by watching this.  Unless you plan on ever getting in a car with Nicklas Backstrom (Warning: Don’t.  Scary u-turns ahoy.), you can skip to 3:52 for the best interview ever. The Capitals are all in LOVE with each other.  It’s kinda cute.  Brooks […]

Newsies: 3-2-1 Contact

Today’s stories are brought to you in order of importance.  No.  In order of who I think is hottest. (So basically like every day here, right?) 1) Crosby’s point streak ended last night at 25 games and I bet Dawn was ringing a church bell in Spokane.  Sid was pouty-pants after the game, probably as […]

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang

Wedding favors for everyone!  Sidney Crosby Lip Balm.  BOOM.  Thanks to my BFF and future doctor Michelle for this one – AMAZING.  She really wants to go to med school in Pittsburgh so I can visit. Featured in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette [link]: If you’re a lucky ticket holder for this weekend’s Winter Classic, be sure […]

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 […]

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.

Pants Says, "Thank You Dawn!"

And I say, “You are quite welcome Pants.” Say no more for your daily dose for Mikey Wednesday. Today is brought to you by the letter “M” for Maxim. I won’t give the gory details of how this post came about because some things between a husband and wife should remain private. But let’s just […]

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 […]

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 […]

I'll Never Stop.

My brain is like the All-Crosby Channel. Check out this video of Sid practicing his hand-eye coordination and stick handling.  Reebok, you bring us all the best b-roll. You might think “wow” or “impressive” or even “oo-er.”  I’m thinking, “Why can’t he do this while wearing a tank top?  Come on!” You may have seen […]

Edge of Seventeen

The Penguins winning streak is at 11 games (14 unbeaten counting 1 shootout loss) and Sidney has 200 goals in 3 games.  Or something like that.  All signs point to awesome… except for this. All these guys are pranksters, right?  Love a good practical joke?  Well this is one.  How many gross superstitions can I […]

Mikey Monday

I’m trying to think of something witty to say but I can’t stop giggling.  I have a lot of trouble with shows like The Office and movies like Meet the Parents – I get really uncomfortable.  Typically I run out of the room.  But this… it’s awkwardly adorable. I’ve been saving this for a while […]

Yes, I'll Shop There

During November, I saw the Penguins play in Anaheim, Atlanta, Buffalo and New York.  Clearly this is the reason Crosby has 26 points in a 13-game streak and was named NHL November Star of the Month.  Such is my power. To thank me (mostly for the 15 hour roundtrip drive to Buffalo), Crosby happily made […]

Mikey Monday

Fidget missed a game this week with that “undisclosed upper body injury,” then came back Sunday vs. Carolina only to be helped off the ice after blocking a shot with his knee.  I bet Mikey fell down a lot as a kid. @wyshynski – Boudreau on Green: “Have you ever blocked a shot? They friggin […]
