Mikey Monday: Missing
New Coach, New Girlfriend, New Attitude?
So Ovi has a new coach, a new girlfriend so let’s hope that leads to a new attitude! Right? Well if the first game was any indication, I might jump ship – WHAT?! Just kiddding. That sound you just heard was Pants and Chuck simulatenously dropping over. I’m so excited for the battle of the hotties […]
Mikey Monday: It's a Start
Mike Green skated today before the Caps practice, his first since missing 8 games with this latest injury. He also changed his Twitter picture. These days, that is considered news. When Mike gets back he’ll have a new coach, new system and maybe a whole new outlook. Let’s hope Hunter packed his bubble wrap. Wonder […]
Bye Bye, BB.
The Capitals have fired Bruce Boudreau and replaced him with NHL alum and first-time head coach Dale Hunter. It’s the same sort of surprise when you fall out of a tree hit the ground. It was probably inevitable, but you’re still a little shocked to find that this is the time. You thought it […]
Mikey Monday: Not a Drill
The news on Mike is: 1) He’s not skating [link]. Boudreau hopeful Mike will be able to skate by the end of this week. 2) The Caps are kinda falling apart. Semin’s demoted to 4th line and may be a healthy scratch vs. Phoenix tonight [link]. They’ve lost 6 of 7 games, giving up 27 […]
WUYS Morning News
Mike Green didn’t make the trip to Winnipeg with the Caps, but he did take his sprained ankle to the Kid Rock show in DC last night. He wore his only favorite sweater (seriously, he wears this more than Toews wears that suit) and that hat that makes me want to throw snowballs. Money was […]
Mikey Monday: &*$#*^@%!
Mike’s hurt. Again. The guy cannot catch a break. At the game in DC on Saturday, Gator declared it’s not as much fun to watch the Caps when Mike doesn’t play. She’s right. The Washington Post’s Katie Carrera reports: According to a league source, Mike Green strained his right groin muscle in Friday’s game against the […]
I Drove All Night
Gator and I are like a married couple who have the same argument all the time, over and over. It goes like this: Gator: “I can’t believe you like Mike Green. He’s so….” Pants: “… Mike Green.” And that is the only explanation, besides falling down and looking so relieved when he scores a goal. […]
Mikey Monday: Missing Mo
Somewhere, Mike needs a hug. He twisted his right ankle during his 2 goal, 4 point night vs. Detroit and hasn’t played since. No word if he’ll play tomorrow vs. Dallas. Of course we miss seeing Mike on the ice for his skills. But we’re also missing quality unshaven Movember time. Normally we offer to […]
Thriller Night
Nicky, I’m sorry I passed up your game to go to the movies. Tower Heist was funny, but we could have rented it on DVD and had a WUYS office slumber party. Still, it’s just one night. There is no need to try to kill me. When I got into the car and turned on […]
If We Had a Million Dollars…
Gator and I would be going to the 2011 Walk This Way Charity Fashion Show tomorrow night in DC. And not just because it’s a great event. Come support Washington Redskins’ Brian Orakpo, Anthony Armstrong, DeAngelo Hall, Capitals’ John Carlson, Karl Alzner, Nick Backstrom, DC United’s Ben Olsen, Former Redskins Gary Clark, Former Jets John Bootyand others as […]
Mikey Monday: Amen Fashion
You may remember loud applause/cheering for the ‘vest and rolled up sleeves’ combo on Toews and Hendricks in the past. Since Mikey’s sprained ankle kept him out of Saturday’s game vs. Vancouver, he obviously spent the weekend reading WUYS. Then he went shopping for a Halloween costume. He went as perfect.
Two Heads are Not Better than One
Now, is this really necessary? Isn’t one Ovi enough? If your name is DawnCherrie, probably not, but for the rest of us, we’re cool with just the one. Thanks so much. Now don’t get me wrong – I think that Ovechkin is a crazy good hockey player. He’s flashy, dynamic, and ALWAYS looks like the […]
As You Wish
How am I supposed to get any work done around here?!?!?! Apparently that’s not enough. I’m only mostly dead, because I croaked “true love” with my second-to-last breath, so @CapsCR had to back up and run me over again: I’ll tell you what he can take home. And just to make sure no one was […]
If Dawn Were Here…
Does anyone know what magazine these are from? An exhaustive three minute Google search yielded nothing. But the interview is hiliario. Goals or assists? Goals. Stanley Cup or gold medal? Both. American or Russian hockey fans? Russian. Because they’re more knowledgeable? Because they’re Russian. Moscow or DC? Moscow in the summer. Italian suit or jeans […]
Mikey Monday: 4 on the Floor
Mike Green, you stud. Way to make Saturday Date Night count! In case you weren’t watching, refreshing your Twitter every ten seconds or hearing my screams echo across DC, you might have missed Mike scoring 2 goals and getting 2 assists vs. Detroit. You might have missed him taking a puck to the chin (“NOT […]
Clean Up, Aisle 8
Gator and I were at the Caps game last night when Mikey got hurt at the end of the 2nd period. We were busy revising iCarly’s participation in Gator’s Life Plan, so we just saw contact, then Mike fell down. This happens a lot, folks. But Mike got up very awkwardly, half-stumbled to the bench […]
Mikey Monday: Blustery Day
It’s a really slow day and this picture has been lurking around my inbox forever. Dawn sent it, presumably trying to impress us with Ovi’s shorts. Or because he’s wearing a Coach’s Corner t-shirt. But all I see is this. Am I wrong? There’s this: And this. I could go on all day. Mike has […]
Dashing Caps
Gator FTW! She just sent me this – trolling the internet for pictures of iCarly when she should be working. Wonder who she learned that from? Capitol File – Washington Capitals Model Fall Fashions Here’s the link to short player profiles and a link to the video. Knuble’s vest and Hendy’s rolled-up sleeves are my […]
I can't take anymore OT.
Please take a moment to enjoy the titles of NHL.com’s highlight reel from last night’s Penguins/Capitals game. Intentional or unintentional innuendo hilarity? Since I’m sure you all heard me screaming, you know the Nealmobile scored two goals. The second on request – I literally said, “Please score!” and he did. Immediately. I like a man […]
