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 […]
The NHL debuted the first Winter Classic ’11 commercial during Sunday Night Football [Video]. To quote the greatest movie of all time: “I know you can be overwhelmed, and I know you can be underwhelmed, but can you ever just be whelmed?” “I think you can in Europe.” – 10 Things I Hate About You […]
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 […]
Pack your mittens and get excited – HBO ran a 12 minute preview for 24/7 Road to the Winter Classic. It’s Pants vs. Dawn in the freezing cold at an hour when no one should be awake on January 1. As MAX TALBOT says, “Bring it on.” (I think Max would be flattered to see […]
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 […]
And you thought it was all Nicklas Backstrom? Ovi has a sugar daddy and it’s Teddy Leonis! Check out his snuggle buddy/fest outside his DVD release last week. Looks like Nicky has some competition. Alex talks about what to expect when watching his new DVD which is now available in stores EVERYWHERE (YES – I pre-ordered my […]
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 […]
In case you haven’t heard, the NHL is getting behind ‘Movember’, a movement established to create additional awareness for men’s health – especially prostate cancer. Their tagline is quite catchy : “Grow that Mo and SAVE A BRO!” So when you see your favorite player a little more hairy then usual, now you know why! […]
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. […]
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 […]
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. […]
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 […]
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 […]
