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 […]

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 […]

Go Play Outside

The ‘stache is gone. Hallelujah. [Video] Somebody looks like a sleepy puppy.  Also, I really like this sweatshirt.  Not a great sign that it’s all he needs to wear outside in December, but hey.  They skated and the game is on (for now). Bonus: Jordan lost the shootout and had to run to the upper […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

Say It Ain't So… Please! and Other News

Holy Whining Sidney Crosby! Mr. Cherrie gave me the shock of my life when I got home from work tonight tellingme he heard rumors of a trade between the Washington Capitals and the LA Kings. Pants can attest to the fact that I complain like Sid about the lack of defense on the Caps. The great, fabulous […]

Mikey Monday: Circular File

I have been on a plane ALL day and I nearly paid $12.99 for in-flight wireless just so I could get this Mikey Monday update done!  Alas, it’s a good thing I didn’t post before the Capitals vs. Devils game.  Also a good thing I didn’t fly into Jersey early to see said game, or […]

Mikey Monday: Letter M

Excuse me as my onomatopoeia gets a little out of control: It’s the Mikey Monday Mustache & Moped edition.  As Dawn pointed out a few weeks ago, it’s Movember.  And I don’t think most of these guys need an excuse to grow a ridiculous mustache.  While we applaud Mike for participating to raise awareness about […]

Marketing Hockey: Episode 1

Oh snap.  We are so ahead of the game!  Monday has come and gone, and today guess who’s featured on the NHL.com homepage with a video highlight and a story?  WUYS poster boy Mike Green.  I’ll keep this short, since Dawn has to listen to me all day long. Mike launched a Facebook fan site.  […]

Tonight, tonight…

So… one whole game last night, eh?  I still managed 9.5 points for my fantasy team because Zetterberg is a machine.  Since there’s nothing to talk about, how about a preview of tonight’s games? Capitals @ Rangers – How much does Mike Green really love us?  Enough to get his 5th goal in 5 games […]
