—IwoCPO to his wife 7 minutes prior to Game 5.

That’s a great idea! Let’s all try it together now.

Nice to have a lead going into the third but this game looks like 80 percent of the playoff losses we’ve suffered through the last six years.
Posted by IwoCPO from Sunny San Diego, bitches on 04/18/08 at 08:16 PM ET
Not for too much longer Osrt.

Stress?... what stress? I’m sitting here with handfulls of my hair in my hands waiting for another goal. Now that it’s between periods I can go make that Maalox milkshake. OW… my stomach aches.

MEANINGLESS, MISLEADING STAT: 20 shots on goal. So what? Almost all of them are from distance with Ellis on his knees square to the shooter and no rebound, no side to side, easy saves. 37 to 11 shots and 67-33% Face off advantage, but one sphincter turn over or bounce away from a tie and leaving the series up to chance. Phack Me.

This is starting to look an awful lot like another longstanding 1-0 game last year. And we all know how that one ended.
God, I need a cigarette.

Vodka Martini…nerves of steel….
Maalox is for Saturday.

Pandora (my cat) just ran into the basement. She knows my dedication and my nervousness.
Posted by Clark on 04/18/08 at 08:21 PM ET
LMAO (nervously) My cats were at the sliding door wanting to come in but have disappeared. Sixth sense, those cats.

More like nerves of rubber… being played like a banjo (subtle nashville reference)... but I get your drift.

Lilja’s in the press box, right?
Put me down for Rafalski in Name Your Goat.

168 posts, 8itches, oops that’s 169. hey that sounds like something i could use, one 69.
Posted by RWBill from the Land of 12 in 12. on 04/18/08 at 08:24 PM ET
Gotta sign off—wipe my daschounds blood up!!! Good luck tonite everyone. Post game in the Forum tomorrow early.

@O-Joe “Name Your Goat” Damn that is wickedly funny. Whiskey on standby in case of another unthinkable loss when outplaying opponent.

Murphey just used the phrase “Carte Blanche”

Hot fudge sauce helps ulcers?
Chocolate for stress.
Bars take too long to unwrap, so I eat hot fudge directly from the jar with a spoon.
Wash it down with diet cherry Coke, and it’s like you are injecting chocolate-covered cherries directly into your bloodstream. The sugar rush is amazing.
1-0 after two periods, and it seems so much more stressful than the 4-3 in the Rangers game.
I think I’ll go puke now. Beat the end of game rush.
(Montreal won their 1-0 game earlier. It can be done.)

Like they say… betchca’ can’t eat just one.
Posted by Mike from La-La Land on 04/18/08 at 08:27 PM ET
Mickey is right…...Nashville is hanging around like a bad smell!!! Did anyone catch the CBC feed which showed the hugh purple octopi coming down from the rafters in front of Dan Ellis…that was great….

If we take an early penalty again, I’ll puke on my cat.

By the way where is Jennifer tonight?
Posted by RWBill from the Land of 12 in 12. on 04/18/08 at 08:32 PM ET
The playoffs are so full of suck. I’m not doing this sh*t next year.
No, really.
Posted by O-Joe on 04/18/08 at 08:33 PM ET
HOLD ON TO YOUR STROHS! 3rd period bros.
Posted by RWBill from the Land of 12 in 12. on 04/18/08 at 08:33 PM ET
Someone on Bubba’s bench has a full face mask on. Did I miss that, or is it new for the 3rd?
Posted by jrl123 on 04/18/08 at 08:33 PM ET
Tigers up 7-4 in the top of the 7th. Uh-oh.
Shit.
Verlander got blasted yesterday! that has to count for something!
Posted by Baroque from Michigan on 04/18/08 at 08:33 PM ET
Is it time for Ellis to melt?
Posted by stonehands-78 from the beginning ... a WingsFan, on 04/18/08 at 08:34 PM ET
Yeah O-Joe, and I’m not going to sacrifice my 10th cat next year either.
Posted by Mike from La-La Land on 04/18/08 at 08:35 PM ET
Ozzie, Ozzie, ... !!!
Posted by stonehands-78 from the beginning ... a WingsFan, on 04/18/08 at 08:37 PM ET
60 minutes, boys. give us a full 60.
Posted by stonehands-78 from the beginning ... a WingsFan, on 04/18/08 at 08:40 PM ET
Game has degenerated to sleepwalking again. This is the condition when Nashville suddenly wakes up and scores 2 goals in 30 seconds. Word!
Posted by RWBill from the Land of 12 in 12. on 04/18/08 at 08:43 PM ET
dangerous situation…no change and a tired 4th line…Helm’s gotta win this faceoff…
who is the D man that dumped that in…how do you not hit the red line?
Posted by Osrt on 04/18/08 at 08:43 PM ET
This, so far, isn’t the statement I wanted the Wings to send to Nashville.
Posted by Mike from La-La Land on 04/18/08 at 08:45 PM ET
Why the hell do we do this every year?
Why the torture? No one, not even Bubba would complain if we were up by 4.
Posted by lilja4ever on 04/18/08 at 08:45 PM ET
Bingeing on chocolate syrup and Coke, then puking. Baroque, the playoff bulimic. Actually, it’s a healthier habit than my compulsive alcoholism and latent nicotine cravings during the playoffs. Remind me to send you a box of chocolates the next time I’m in Belgium. Mme. Dumon does a killer schokoladekirschen.
1-0 CAN be the final score, but not if I want to keep my hair. I’m pledging my spleen to Floppa for a goal here…
Posted by AndrewFromAnnArbor on 04/18/08 at 08:48 PM ET
Stress train stress train stress train…... just one freakin bounce away from being tied. this after owning the last 5 of 6 periods..
Save me Jebus!
