Shane, Avs Talk
Wings fans, feel free to poke fun at the team we cheer for - it’s what you do in sports - but never question the loyalty of our true fan base.
Garcia had long hair and makeup and was wearing an Avalanche jersey, according to authorities.

It’s 1440 EST and no word on whether Forsberg’s playing. How the hell does that happen?

If anyone is having issues with their cable/dish/local carrier not showing the game for some reason, here’s a link to try:

I haven’t messed with it yet, so proceed with caution.
Go ‘Wings.

I’m sure they’re trying to keep a lid on Forsberg so NBC can reveal it.

How about the gastrointestinal derangements of Josey? Any news on our favorite sieve?
Posted by JimS on 04/26/08 at 01:45 PM ET
What a failure on the part of the Diggers, MacLeod included. Game is in roughly twenty minutes and no mention on any of their blogs about Forsberg, or Maltby. Both are skating in warmups.

Maybe that’s why they call it a game time decision…
Give it another twenty minutes or so…

... But I’d be shocked if Floppa doesn’t at least try to play.
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 04/26/08 at 01:48 PM ET
Ha, well Channel 4 in Detroit is actually doing a pre-game, reporter live from JLA, players skating hehind her on the ice, no mention of Malts or Foppa on the ice.
Posted by Paul from Motown Area on 04/26/08 at 01:49 PM ET
Not true, Paul - they’ve mentioned Floppa skating at least 3 times… and shown Malts skating.
Posted by TeamDub from The gratch. on 04/26/08 at 01:54 PM ET
Huh. In San Diego, NBC’s just showing fat men on surfboards.
I guess it beats golf.
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 04/26/08 at 01:54 PM ET
Same here in DC. My wife just asked: “Are all Hawaiians fat?”
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 04/26/08 at 01:55 PM ET
Dub, thanks for the link… Got the TSN feed, working great.
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 04/26/08 at 01:57 PM ET
Sweet Mud, glad it works!
Enjoy the game!

Star Wars Deal or No Deal.
I’m stupider for having seen that commercial.
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 04/26/08 at 01:59 PM ET
I have the surf Charlies, too. Don’t miss the golf imposition, though.
Posted by JimS on 04/26/08 at 01:59 PM ET
Emerick, as you all just heard and so I must question why i’m typing this: “forsberg might play.”
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 04/26/08 at 02:00 PM ET
I have four hawaiian brother-in-laws, and yes. We say big-boned. But i say fat, because the other sounds wrong.
Anyone know a good site to listen to the game? I’m thinking of turning down nbc
Posted by AndrewB from TN on 04/26/08 at 02:00 PM ET
Ah, the insectoid head of Mike Emrick. Always a refreshing sight!
Posted by JimS on 04/26/08 at 02:01 PM ET
Iwo, the only question is why Emrick was talking like Yoda. Injured he may play. Groin strong it is.
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 04/26/08 at 02:01 PM ET
Emerich has enough trouble not reverting to his home planet’s language. Sometimes the nuances of English escape him.
Posted by J.J. from Kansas on 04/26/08 at 02:02 PM ET
Douche with the Forsberg teaser.
Wow…that sentence just made my skin crawl.
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 04/26/08 at 02:03 PM ET
Heh. McGuire just gave it away immediately after putting us in suspense prior to the commercial break: (paraphrased) “And it doesn’t ... look good for Forsberg.”
Posted by Matt Saler from Grand Rapids, MI on 04/26/08 at 02:03 PM ET
Watch McGuire’s face when he says Forsberg and pay close attention to his eyes. Is it love? ha
Posted by AndrewB from TN on 04/26/08 at 02:04 PM ET
So, is the game on yet? Cuz TSN is just showing Sportscenter crap… Methinks this feed might be delayed… :(
Posted by mudshark from Divetown, Colorado on 04/26/08 at 02:05 PM ET
Hola Gang!!
Stuie is in, I would think;
Question is who is sitting??
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 04/26/08 at 02:05 PM ET
Andrew, I think some of the caked-on head makeup just dripped into his eyes is all. His head is actually absorbing light…
Posted by Gabriel from San Diego, CA on 04/26/08 at 02:06 PM ET
I don’t know why Ryan Smith doesn’t just surrender and finish out the mullet.
Posted by JimS on 04/26/08 at 02:07 PM ET
McGuire’s eyes keep flashing back and forth between Ryan Smyth’s eyes and lips.
Posted by J.J. from Kansas on 04/26/08 at 02:07 PM ET
Draper, Texas Ranger…
LOL!!!
Chuck Norris for sure!!
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 04/26/08 at 02:09 PM ET
Man no doubt on the draper/norris deal. a new glossary entry may be in order soon.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 04/26/08 at 02:11 PM ET
When does this Verizon guy’s contract run out? Sheesh.
Posted by Matt Saler from Grand Rapids, MI on 04/26/08 at 02:12 PM ET
What do you suppose the over/under is today on how many minutes the Wings’ will play like their absolutely trying to humiliate the Av’s?
Me = 40 minutes of 100% effort,
Av’s carry the play for 15 minutes;
The other 5 = even
Posted by Jeff OKWingnut from Quest for 12 on 04/26/08 at 02:13 PM ET
JLA looks great on TV today. 46 entries and the game hasn’t even started yet. Get a life Hosers!
Posted by RWBill from the Land of 12 in 12. on 04/26/08 at 02:15 PM ET
Give him a little push Nicky!
Posted by J.J. from Kansas on 04/26/08 at 02:16 PM ET
RWBill, the record is 422 comments. I may start the live blog at noon on Monday just to beat that.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 04/26/08 at 02:17 PM ET
Hannan’s out today too, says St. James.

It is currently snowing in Denver.
I am not sure how to take this natural harbinger of, er, something, but in keeping with the greatest of Stress Train traditions, I’ve decided to study for my Trusts and Estates exam curled up in the fetal position in the lawbrary basement…
Ken and Paul are my co-pilots.
