Come on 19.. Wait, Oh sh*t. I gotta go. My dad just came home and caught me jacking off to my mom in the shower, but remember the offer is still open. And when I turn 16, I’ll drive over and deliver the money myself.

Wait, is this two 8-2 losses on “Hit Me Mick” days? I think the gods have spoken. Tee-totalers from April on? I know it sounds drastic, but we got to take one for the team.

I missed last week’s game against Nashville. Saw the score after it was over and thought ah well, long season, Nashville, blah blah blah. Saw the Chief’s post following it and thought he sounded a little over the top, watching this makes my ulcer bleed.

I don’t know WHAT to make of this team. Someone else here called them schizophrenic. They seemed tired, bored, and not willing to fight for much of anything. I hope it gets better soon.

The difference between you and me is that when the Wings win #12, I will be happy because I was right, not because I was pleasantly surprised.

I got a C-note that says they don’t get out of the 2nd round.  You want some action - put your money where your mouth is.  You or anyone else.

Can I have the time back the last two Saturday nights that I wasted watching the Wings play?  For some reason, I couldn’t abandon them…

BLECH.  Same problem I have been seeing most of the season, the Wings all bunch up on one side and don’t do the defensive coverage like we need.  The team is really missing Holmstrom and Hossa.  What a horrid night for Rafalski…really the whole team.  They should be ashamed to put on that kind of effort in front of the home crowd.

No, I skipped Don Cherry tonight.

However, I absolutely am judging you for betting against the Wings. The good news is that I know now that you’re not actually a Wings fan.  I’ve accused you of it before and you’ve denied it.  There’s no way you’ll convince me now after laying down that challenge.

You find it incapable that a person can be a fan yet believe (and stand behind that belief) that the team he is a fan of has no chance of winning the Cup?  Pal, I’m watching and rooting for them irrespective of if I get suckers to take my bet or not.  I’d be happy to be wrong and lose the $100.  And if I weren’t a fan, I’d be putting up a lot more than $100.

Yes…let me run out and make a bet with an anonymous loser. Epic idea. No, really.  You’ve repeatedly demonstrated nothing but maturity and I’m sure you’ll man-up if you lost a bet.

Please. You’re worried about me not paying a freakin $100?  I’ll tell you what - we both put up the C-note with IwoCPO or Kukla.  Let him distribute the money.  Surely we can trust them?

It was a nice attempt at an excuse.

So Lurker, let me get at least one part of your life straight.

You “lurk”/ invade a sports blog filled with fellow team fans and then vilify them at every opportunity. You then challenge them to liquify their adoration by challenging them to a bet.

If you genuinely feel you are better than us and/ or know more about the current Wings situation, then why visit this site? Doesn’t the pathetic pleasure you get from disturbing a few say more about your idiocy than it does about any of our own faults? That’s a rhetorical question.

How can THIS group, THIS *#$%@& group of players let something like this happen TWICE in one week?

If they think they can just “flip the switch” on April 15th, they’re gonna get swept in the first round. I want them to win every game form here on out. There is absolutely NO REASON why they can’t. I don’t want to see a loss again this season.

It was a nice run last year.  They can’t do it every year. Give them a break.  They don’t have it this year - the drive, that is.  And let’s face it - the coaching staff has done a very poor job with Filpulla, Samuelsson, Kopecky, Osgood, Kronwall…

You want some action - put your money where your mouth is.

Umm…have you been reading what people are saying on this site?  A lot of them don’t think that we’ll get out of the first round.  So you honestly think you’re going to find any takers?  You must be dumber than Barry Trotz looks.

However, in the spirit of gamesmanship and fair play, and because I supported this team long through the Dead Things era, and I know what hope against despair feels like, yet that’s what LOYALTY to a team and tradition means, I accept your offer and will wager my $100 against your $100 (presumably that’s what you mean by the outdated and lame term ‘C-Note’).  However, it is NOT unconditional.  This must be handled by a recognized and agreed-upon neutral third-party broker.  I propose Paul Kukla, if he agrees.  The procedure will be thus:

1) Both parties will register on this site and supply full contact information to the broker, including home address and telephone number, and a time when they can be reached.  Additionally they will supply a password of their choosing.
2) The broker will telephone both parties and ask for the password, then verbally verify they are who they say they are and have agreed to the wager.
3) The broker will supply an address to which to send cash or alternately an account into which it can be transferred (Paypal, etc.).  The total will be $120 USD per party; $100 will cover the wager and the other $20 will cover disbursement of the pot to the winner (postage).  Any excess will be kept by the broker as a pittance for services rendered.  The broker will verify to all parties when the money arrives; should one party not deposit the money within four weeks of the deposit area being supplied, the money will be returned to the party that did live up to their end of the wager.
4) If/when the Detroit Red Wings exit the 2009 NHL Playoffs, the money will be dispensed in cash form by secure delivery to the winner of the bet.

Paul, how about it?

Oh, and guys—I know I’m feeding the troll.  But you know what?  This isn’t about some little lame-ass punk who likes to rile people up and bet against a team he purports to support.  It’s about those long winter nights at The Joe when it was not yet ten years old, when despite the presence of names like Duguay, Burr, Ogrodnick, Gallant…Yzerman…a loss was expected and eight goals against wasn’t that uncommon.  This is about times like those, and about an warm night in early June when all that suffering by the players and the fans was validated, when the ghosts and nicknames of the past were banished, and the Winged Wheel began a transition from a logo to a legend.  It’s about faith.  So let me feed the troll; I’m guessing he wasn’t around in the eighties and has grown up with a team he’s used to seeing win.  He hasn’t had it hard, and when he does, he finds it easier to be cynical and take out his frustrations on others than to understand that it’s always darkest just before the dawn.  If he wants to gamble against his own team, let him—it says a lot more about him than it does about the team.  Just let me show him, on behalf of the A2Y 19, that faith in your team and hope in their future is not something to be sneered at.

Oh, and Chief, that’s two games with eight goals against.  Perhaps Hit Me Mick should be retired?

Or if anyone has concerns preventing this, then pick out a charity.  If I lose I’ll donate the $100 on the 19’s behalf.  I trust peer pressure enough to know that you’ll do the same if you lose.

However, I’ll give you kudos, Andrew, for manning up. All those who talk of SJ v Det in the WCF have run for the hills…

So, last night was not a bad dream. It was a friggin nightmare. I always consider March to be tune up month.  Assessment of the things that need to be tightened up. All around defensive play is priority #1. It has been a constant, nagging problem all season long. That in turn contributes to the sh!t goaltending and visa versa.

But, I’m not about to give up the ghost and talk sh!t about my team or any single player.What is that saying folks are so fond of? The regular season is meaningless.

I still do not see any team beating the Wings in a seven game series. Period.

Smartest thing you’ve said the entire time you’ve been here, and the one I like the most.  My inclination is to suggest whatever charities received money from Jiri Fischer’s “Shocks and Saves” game, but I’m open to other suggestions.  Anyone?

you’d know that I can’t FedEx money as I’m overseas.  I’ll get mine in the mail if the Chief agrees.
It should be clear by now that I’m not here to network.

No - I guess that makes you more of a fan than I am. Congratulations.

I’m glad you think so.  Let’s do this then - best solution.  I trust that the members here will find a worthy cause, and will go along with that choice.


Regarding you being overseas - I’m guessing that you serve in the military.  If not, my apologies.  If so, maybe you can answer a dew questions for me - I’ve always wondered - why did Pat Tillman’s fellow Army Rangers kill him?  And why is the Army covering it up?  Thanks in advance for any insights you (or anyone else) can offer.
