In a related story…

There’s nothing going on today and I keep dwelling on the Penguins 3rd period meltdown last night… so let’s lighten the mood. Our countdown comments: 10) God those Anaheim sweaters were ugly.  Not as ugly as the first purple & teal ones, but that stripe at the bottom is awful. 9) Sid’s landlord will totally […]

Oops. Did I Do That?

Not a good weekend for some goalies. Tim Thomas ended up watching this one go straight down the five hole LITERALLY. Which was a complete oddity given that Timmy the Tank was playing so well. When I saw it happen live I was screaming at the TV and Mr. Cherrie because I had sent him to kitchen to get […]

24/7 Secret Admission… From a Caps Fan.

When Pants and I were Twittering during the various 24/7 episodes, there were a few things I came to realize, Kris Letang is HOT. He is the only Penguin I will cop to that about. Secondly, way before this blog and 24/7, MAF caught my eye because a fan put a sign up against the glass for […]

Warning: This Post Contains Gratuitousness Caps.

In honor of the Caps current winning streak. Many of you may have already seen this but I don’t care. I love seeing Mike banging the drums, Ovi shaking his ass and Brooksy trying to look dangerous. Plus, I think it is just a vat of plain gratuitousness of awesomeness, rolled around in sparkly sprinkles of chocolately cupcake deliciousness. I […]

I Am a Hockey Nerd Not a Comic Book Nerd – Sorry.

Ok – I’m going to apologize upfront here. I’ve never read a comic book – EVER.  Not once. And it took marrying Mr. Cherrie for me to discover the greatness of hockey and that is after many years of married bliss. Even when he first pointed out Ovi, I glanced up from reading my Glamour Magazine, […]

I Heart Russian Dressing

The Russian Machine never breaks and evidently Alex Ovechkin never stops making promos either as evidenced below. ESPN pulled the clip from Pants’ post below but I got it via a tweet from the Caps. IT WAS HILARIOUS! I just wonder seriously who pitches these things to him, “Hey Alex, we are gonna go to the […]

Class Act – A Senator – Not Our Politicians

Fist off, I can’t believe I’m writing about the Penguins. Secondly, yes, this is a few days late but between an emergency vet visit on Christmas Day, (Moe ate curling ribbon – still waiting for it to come out the other end – oh joy!) the food coma I’ve been in and the pants I’m stuck in […]

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 […]

Hockey Fans are the BEST!

Puck Daddy did a Hockey Fan art contest on his blog and here are some of the winners. They are truly works of art which makes me think that next year, we at WUYS should have our very own contest but it should be limited to Ovi, Sid, Geno, Mikey and a few other players […]

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 […]

My House is Bugged…

I sit and watch TV and I tell Mr. Cherrie that our house is bugged because every time I say something,  BOOM! It happens. So I posted last week the whole hockey cats thing? And now – BOOM! I give you this! Did I unconsciously bring this into being? Am I really that good? I alway tell Mr. […]

Merry Christmas – Chuck

I honestly thought Pants would beat me to this so I didn’t bother but I guess Pants was too busy oogling and preening about  Sid and the Pens this weekend to bother. I only wish the Caps were this creative because I think this kind of team bonding would bring them out of the doldrums […]

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 […]

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.

For Your Viewing Pleasure.

Warning: This video contains Ovi in his underwear. If the first few seconds of the video from 24/7 was all you saw, it would be enough. It’s all you really need. It’s all I really needed. I could just put it on repeat and watch it all day, 24/7 really. If the swim suit wasn’t […]

Nothing says "Hockey" like a nice glass of Merlot

I love wine.  I also love hockey. Now normally one does not associate the refinement and elegance of sipping a fine Napa Cabernet Sauvignon or a crisp Pinot Gris with the rough and gritty sport of hockey.  Hockey is more a beer sport, fueled by the grease of chicken wings, hard-boiled eggs behind the bar […]

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 […]
