The polls are closed. And after 119 votes, I’ll admit it. I recorded the first one this morning and it went to Triumph. “Magic Power” is easily in the IwoCPO top ten. I’m also a big Guess Who fan and I even dig me some Neil Young when the time is right.
I can also tell you this: I’ve never listened to a second of a Tragically Hip song, I don’t think. But peer pressure’s a bitch so I stuck ‘em in there. It came down to the wire between Rush and Young, with a push from Ronnie Van Zant’s pal the last 90 minutes or so. The selected lyric? Well, that just fits.
Oh, and Subdivisions? Not the song we chose, obviously. But to set the record straight…“Conform or be cast out..” followed later by “be cool or be cast out.”
I’m just sayin’.
It’s a 3-man genius of a Provincial Live Blog bitches.
And if you’re without TV? Yahoo’s got it.

Yeah Nate. Getting Nutty. And I wanted to stem the tide before the write in Bryan Adams votes started filtering in.

I’d take him over that ugly whore Celine Dion any day.

Oh crap. “This clip is currently unavailable due to geo-restriction in your area.” And that’s the link Nate posted.
Thanks Gary. Ass.

Kronwall out for tonight. Damn…. I was looking forward to another tooth rattling check or two during the game.
Posted by calquake on 11/20/08 at 08:55 PM ET
Sorry Alex, Yahoo doesn’t like Canada.

That link sould also be broadcasting…eventually. Might be a faster feed too.
Posted by Nate A from Detroit-ish on 11/20/08 at 08:57 PM ET
No Kronners eh? I guess we’ll just have to make do. Bitches.
Lets Go Red Wings!!!!!

RW, I agree where are the Diebold voting machines when you need them?!? Neil Young is so far above the Hip and others listed in cool points, it is like comparing the Wings with the Blues.
Doing the tape-delay blog again, bitches, late shows the past couple of nights which have been cutting into my live hockey viewing. David Suzuki yesterday, and no he didn’t smell like “Otto’s jacket”. Today is heart doctors talking drugs, my favourite, and I may get some nitroglycerine prescriptions to get me through another Lilja-Lebda pairing within the last minute of a close game.
Mac-T has not unpacked his bags since returning home. There are even rumours that he has started to pack the desk in his office, including the anthrax letters sent to him by Burke last year.
If our boys handle the Lube like we did on Monday, we won’t need Miss Cleo to forcast Mac-T’s future.

Geez… that’s rough about Murph’s daughter. I hope she’s ok.

Deuce, the Wings have been carrying 7 D-Men, so they just scratch Kronner and dress Meech.
Posted by J.J. from Kansas on 11/20/08 at 09:03 PM ET
Gotcha JJ. Should have caught that.
Posted by ITDeuce from The Land of Ice and Snow on 11/20/08 at 09:04 PM ET
Neil Young is so far above the Hip
To me, thats like comparing Gordie n Stevie. Way too much around them is too different for an accurate comparison….. both are great in their own respects.
What’s up with no JR??????
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 11/20/08 at 09:05 PM ET
Nate, you’re bloody brilliant!
Ah, the FSN feed too, thank you very much sir!
Now onto the game… no Nik Jr? Meech can fill in. Just ask Brian Gionta.
Posted by Alex from Innisfail, Alberta on 11/20/08 at 09:05 PM ET
Geez, nice effort by Sammy…
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 11/20/08 at 09:08 PM ET
These retro sweaters have me looking for Gretz, Mess, Coffey…. Tikannen… already
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 11/20/08 at 09:09 PM ET
Damn, what’s gotten into William Tell? He hit the net!
Posted by Alex from Innisfail, Alberta on 11/20/08 at 09:09 PM ET
What the heck? Why no Homer?
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 11/20/08 at 09:09 PM ET
sup bithces….avoiding some work with this live blog.
What the hell is going on?
Homer is out and Craig Simpson is our color guy??
Posted by Osrt on 11/20/08 at 09:10 PM ET
MOWings… I was just thinking the same thing.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 11/20/08 at 09:10 PM ET
Jesus. Homer’s out too? Naturally, no mention of either injury by our Diggers today. They’re so tuned in.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 11/20/08 at 09:10 PM ET
OOOOOmmmpa Looompa!!!
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 11/20/08 at 09:10 PM ET
So Homer’s out, and you put Kopecky in his place?
I’m sorry Uncle Mike, but I don’t——
GOOOOOOOAL!!!!!
HAPPY!!
Ok, forget what I just said.
Posted by Alex from Innisfail, Alberta on 11/20/08 at 09:11 PM ET
Evenin’.
Okay, I seem to have missed some crucial info whilst rocking out to By-tor and the Snow Dog - what’s up with Murph? #55? #96?
?
Posted by TeamDub from The gratch. on 11/20/08 at 09:12 PM ET
Maybe we’ll finally see Hank-Pav-Hossa tonight.
Posted by Alex from Innisfail, Alberta on 11/20/08 at 09:12 PM ET
The sweaters n lighting are like looking into a time machine…...
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 11/20/08 at 09:12 PM ET
Was that Adam Sandler sitting behind the Wings bench?
Posted by J.J. from Kansas on 11/20/08 at 09:12 PM ET
Geez… that’s rough about Murph’s daughter. I hope she’s ok.
What happened to Murph’s daughter?
I think something is wrong with FSN’s road cameras. HNIC is always bright when they show their late games with Edmonton.
Posted by Osrt on 11/20/08 at 09:13 PM ET
TeamDub - Ken said that Murph’s daughter was in a car accident and needs some kind of surgery (didn’t specify) but that she’s expected to be ok.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 11/20/08 at 09:14 PM ET
TD
We have nothing. Kenny just said they weren’t in the line up.
Murph is having family problems I think. My hopes and prayers go out to them!
Posted by Alex from Innisfail, Alberta on 11/20/08 at 09:14 PM ET
Osrt, she was in a car wreck….. should be ok but needs surgery
Posted by MOWingsfan19 on 11/20/08 at 09:14 PM ET
Osrt,
Murph’s daughter was involved in a car crash, so he’s not there for the FSN Detroit feed tonight.
Posted by J.J. from Kansas on 11/20/08 at 09:15 PM ET
Nice save Oz.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 11/20/08 at 09:16 PM ET
Uh oh. Back spasms wasn’t what I wanted to hear about Homer.
Posted by Alex from Innisfail, Alberta on 11/20/08 at 09:17 PM ET
homer’s out w. back problems? Does he have a history of back problems?
Posted by wingsfanindenver on 11/20/08 at 09:17 PM ET
Homer’s out from back spasms?? Geez. Probably from getting the crap beat out of him with opposing goalie sticks.
Posted by Jennemy of the Skate from putting the b*tches in the box on 11/20/08 at 09:17 PM ET
Short bench and road trip don’t make good friends usually…. ‘specially on a western one.
