A2Y Housekeeping

First off: last night’s game has driven me out of Tennessee. I can take no more.  Bubba has kicked me out and I’ll be leaving this week.  No, Bubba doesn’t have the collective power to rid the state of the A2Y menace.  But, the IwoCPO base of operation is indeed moving to the nation’s capital.  So, by next Saturday I’ll officially be a DC blogger; joining the ranks of Eric, JP, the DC Sportschick and countless others.  I’ll have a separate category for DC bloggers in the sidebar soon, a blatant attempt to get invited to cool DC blogger events. 

Secondly: if you attribute that empty feeling that’s been nagging you for days to the fact that you can’t find a comprehensive resource for all A2Y game recaps, your problem is solved.  You can now find them, oddly, in the Game Recap section on the sidebar.

Thirdly: you may have noticed that from time to time I like to give Grampa Pinhead his own billing here at A2Y. You may think I do that in hopes that he won’t pick on me in the comment sections of reactionary postings (like this one, no doubt).  That’s true.  But, he also brings a different viewpoint than mine, which I hope you enjoy.  I’d like to open that up to the rest of you.  If you have a subject you feel strongly about, .  I’ll check it for hidden links to porn, then publish it, making you the star your mom always hoped you’d become.

Fourthly: There have been a few recent additions to the A2Y Glossary.  As always, you’re more than welcome to send in any suggestions you may have.

I figured this would turn into a Memphis Riverkings blog the way things are going.  But, good luck in D.C.  At least you will get to see the Wings once every 3 years.

If you dig Chinese, there’s a cute little restaurant right round the corner from the Phone Booth that has decent Hot and Sour Soup.

Gimme a holla if you get a wild hair to come visit fair Raleigh sometime.

PCS to the Puzzle Palace, I presume.

I was there only once.  What a nightmare finding my way around. 

“Screw it,” I said to myself.  “It’s not that important.”

And I left.

Heh.

When you come out of the Phone Booth (the Verizon Center or MCI Center or whatever the hell phone company the Crapitals’ barn is named for now) onto 8th Street, take a right, and then another right when you get to the corner by the Metro stop. The restaurant will be on your right, and if I remember right from the last time I was there there’ll be a sandwich board set up on the sidewalk announcing their specials in Mandarin and English. Cute little hole-in-the-wall joint that isn’t super-special, but it’s nice, the staff is friendly, and the food is good.

About Abel to Yzerman

Welcome to Abel to Yzerman, a Red Wing blog since 1977.  No other site on the internet has better-researched, fact-laden and better prepared discussions than A2Y.  Re-phrase: we do little research, find facts and stats highly overrated and claim little to no preparation.  There are 19 readers of A2Y. No more, no less. All of them, except maybe one, are juvenile in nature.  Reminding them of that in the comment section will only encourage them to prove that. Your suggestions and critiques are welcome:

Wanna Feel Smart?

Does confusion make you sad? When you read words like "enigma" and phrases like "Thanks Gary. Ass", do you wonder why mean people speak in languages you don't understand? Fret no longer friend! The A2Y Glossary will bring you great joy and enlightenment.

How Others View The A2Y 19

"Hell, I guarantee the content co-opters at Abel to Yzerman were about to link this article under the heading “Bitter Blues Fans” again right up until they just read that last half-sentance. Thanks but no thanks, you Kukla hangers-on."
--St. Louis Game Time

"I realize it’s the slow summer season, but can this guy tone down the tough-guy histrionics? His posts are fatiguing on an otherwise excellent site."
--A2Y Fan, Eternal_Fields

"I constantly marvel at how Bill (IwoCPO) and his disciples at Abel To Yzerman can be so pompous and full of themselves throughout every regular season, but come playoff time they collapse into wavering puddles of stress and nervousness as they anxiously await the impending and unavoidable collapse of the Red Wings in the post-season."
--Mile High Hockey

"I hate them because they are better than us. Of all the frigging teams…"
--In The Cheap Seats

"It's just a shame that the most classless, uneducated, lowbrow fanbase in the league gets this sweep. Red Wing fans don't deserve their team."
--Thhom

"I really don’t care what fans or bloggers think."
--Drew Sharp

"Why is it you Detroit fans are still so classless when you have such a classy hockey team, with such a professional GM and gentlemen players? I understand that the author of this blog is a manner-less cad, but the rest of you should be better."
--A2Y Fan, Jeff Beaumont

"Have you ever *read* A2Y? Its the most opinionated, juvenile stuff i've read."
--Paul Nicholson

"I actually like the Detroit team and have a sh&% load of respect for them, but their fans are the biggest douches next to Canadians."
--KStewy, PensBlog Commenter

"Just when it looks like we have bottomed out, the 19 hit a new low."
-A2Y legend, Hockeytown Todd

"And for the record, I don't hate the Red Wings, I hate their fans."
--Douche Bag at Puck Daddy who isn't Wyshynski

"You’re nothing but a douchebag ****, c3po. Go f**k yourself, and learn something about hockey in the process. Nothing ruins my day more than seeing your byline on the kk page."
--Hector, A2Y fan, statesman, Pittsburgh Chapter of Jonas Brothers Fan Club President

"I can just imagine the kindergarten teacher’s reaction when the tyke blurts out 'Mommy says Gary Bettman is a f*cking f*ckface! He wants to give ‘Rosby the bad touch.' ”
--Bella, of the 19

"A2Y is what other blog sites aspire to be when they fail to grow up: intelligent immaturity for the juvenile genius set”
--Captain Dennis Polonich, of the 19
