… is being sooooooooo cloooooooooooose… ugh, I hate the guy from Rascall Flatts’ voice but there is no other way to describe Pittsburgh’s loss to the Rangers last night. Unless you’re Mr. Pants and (just to be an ass) you’re suddenly a Rangers fan who wants a vintage jersey. Shut up or you’re paying for […]
Sidney Crosby had a fight last night. Sidney Crosby won a fight last night. I am still recovering from the heart palpitations. The game between Pittsburgh and Dallas got out of reach pretty quickly, with the Stars up 4-1 in the 2nd. Things took a turn for the ugly when Brendan Morrow picked a fight […]
The Penguins unveiled their Winter Classic jerseys today. If you live out West, the game is on at 10 AM. That’s technically still New Year’s Eve in my book, but frankly what a way to ring it in! Crosby, Staal, Letang, Talbot, Flower (hopefully) and throw in some Mike Green… I can wake up for […]
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 […]
I was educating myself on the past history of fans vs players. I am also not necessarily referring to the Vancouver incident – I don’t want anyone hurt at a game – not a fan or a player. But perhaps agro fans should stay home and work it out privately than bother the rest of […]
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 […]
It’s our favorite time of year – time for wild predictions that will make you a chump in April. We have consulted the shine of Barry Melrose’s hair and cast leaves in a bowl of Jeremy Roenick’s tears. And now WUYS brings you… Conference and Stanley Cup Champ predictions, 2010-2011 Chocolate Iced predicts: Eastern Conf. […]
OK – so I’m sitting here watching the results show for BOTB II and as I noted there was no way Canadians were going to let the Russians win, but I didn’t think they were going to send them home TONIGHT! Good God! They had the highest score Sunday from the judges. Luckily, the judges […]
Well, most of us anyway. The NHL debuted their new ad campaign over the weekend: Questions Will Become Answers. I thought this slogan was kinda lame until I saw the videos. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? (Sorry CI, but a girl needs a moment here.) Did I make an entire ad campaign and completely forget?! Because […]
http://vimeo.com/15257011 Ovi has a new commercial for CCM skates and I LOVE IT! Although he can’t act and is laughing through out when he is supposed to be a total A**, he is just too adorable and shows he can make fun of himself and the image MAX TALBOT likes to refer to! And in […]
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 […]
Ah … NO!
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 […]
Every year, teams whore out their players to deliver season tickets for photo ops. I wonder – how strongly do they vet these lucky recipients first? Because I could totally act normal. Then if Sid or Max (or Kris or Flower…) rang my doorbell, we would have a hostage situation. Even in those shoes. Video […]
Sidney Crosby continued his casual campaign for world dominance today by hitting a batting practice home run at PNC Park. Sid, who could get arrested for indecency while wearing shorts, went yard on his second round of pitches. Somebody get Theo on the phone – next time the Pens bow out in May, I expect […]
Testing out a video post, as well as a post with more than a few lines of text. I’m watching A Knight’s Tale, but it’s past the choreographed dancing scene so I supposed I could go to sleep. After I try to de-bug this thing a little more…
