The Mondays cannot come fast enough for Mike Green. He absolutely killed it this week! The season is one month old and the Capitals are atop their division standings today. Last night, Mike dusted off his other nickname (we prefer Fidget) and scored the game-winning, overtime power play goal to give the Capitals a 3-2 […]
This week’s edition of Mikey Monday practically wrote itself! Like a Post-It Note on the bathroom mirror, the Caps dumped the Flames on Saturday night. Hard. Iginla will be eating Krispy Kremes and cutting Ovi out of photos for at least a week. Washington scored 6 goals in the 2nd period and won 7-2. Mike […]
For this installment of Mikey Monday, I’m going to give making fun of Mike Green’s spending habits a rest. Instead, I bring you a recap of the text conversation between myself and Dawn on Saturday during the Capitals/Thrashers game (video). There were about 75 texts over 3 hours. Mike was back after missing 3 games […]
I can hardly bring myself to paraphrase the Alex Ovechkin feature in November’s GQ Magazine. Was I expecting something else? No way in hell. Was I hoping for a little more, maybe for Dawn’s sake? I think I was. Or at least because he stands really close to Mike Green and I’m afraid Ovi is […]
Not the epic movie musical, just the stories that I felt like sharing today… Jonathan Toews took a puck to the face last night. I yelled “NOT THE FACE!” so loud the neighbors thought I was watching Top Model. I’d prefer he not get hit anywhere, but let’s leave the facial sacrificing to Duncan Keith. […]
First, let’s all wish Mike Green well. He didn’t play Saturday night and according to Dawn’s text: “They need Fidget, badly.” Don’t we all? Hopefully he’ll be back for tomorrow night’s game vs. Boston, which Chuck hopes he loses. Mike Green Paid for This – Episode 4: The Fireplace I was tempted to call this […]
What’s the consensus on wearing gear for a player you love on a team you hate? I have zero problems we’re at Toews shirt, since they’re not even in the Penguins conference. And if I were famous, I think Taser would wear a shirt with my name on it. But what about Washington? When Dawn […]
Mike! I told you the fight was plenty, and the sweaty Ovi workout shirt you stole for Dawn. Please stop lavishing me with gifts for our joint birthday celebration. Good thing it’s over, I’m not sure what else you might do. Caps TV did a totally boring Mike Green birthday segment in which Mike showed […]
We interrupt your regularly scheduled episode of Mike Greek Paid for This for a special occasion – Happy Birthday to Everyone! Okay, not everyone – Happy Birthday Pants (today) and Mike Green (tomorrow). For my birthday, Mike decided to roll up his sleeves and fight Ilya Kovalchuk on Saturday night. It wasn’t a great fight […]
OMG it’s Monday. Fidget Fan Club presidential failure underway! All (3) of you will read this Tuesday, but I’m milking the PST time zone for all it’s worth. Working is totally overrated when you could be Googling Mike Green. Since we’ve had plenty to say on WUYS today, I will keep this one short: Mike […]
Look who did his hair and put on a tie! Mike Green is trying to impress us. Unnecessary, I say, but it’s so cute of him to always bring us presents. I have my own little present for Mike, to put him in the ranks of WUYS favorites like Martin St. Louis. A nickname: Fidget. […]
I couldn’t help myself because unlike Pants, I <3 sparkly, bright, shiny things – like a magpie – or better yet – like Mike Green to Mariah Carey. Plus the total bonus was they were discounted and no comment from the peanut gallery about the Ovi shirt! Puh-lease … There has been enough bashing today […]
Merry Christmas to us! I have to get HBO and a bigger text messaging plan for this. Maybe I could just get a red phone that rings every time Dawn wants to squeal about Ovi’s man/bear-ness or send me photos of her “Sidney Crosby Sucks” t-shirt. NHL, HBO announce 24/7 series featuring Washington Capitals, Pittsburgh […]
I just laughed so hard at my desk that my intern came in to see if I was crying. Mariah Carey? Mike Green, you are too much. Chuck had a brilliant idea: Mikey Mondays! I will see her blatant attempt to restrict my ramblings to one day a week and raise her with another edition […]
While Dawn Cherrie and I were on a double date last night with Mike Green and Ovie, the rest of the NHL’s top 20 stars partied with Graydon Carter and the fancypants folks at Vanity Fair. Well, fancy-ish. Guests included “actor” Tom Cavanaugh and Olympic ice skater Evan Lysacek. It kills me that we’re not […]
Disclaimer: I can’t get enough of Mike Green. He’s hysterical. His birthday is the day after mine. That haircut. Between his website and Twitter… maybe I’m giving Mikey too much credit, assuming his hipster/tool personality is at least somewhat ironic. He could be serious, in which case I will delete this post at a later […]
