Marty…We’re Not Kidding.  Put The “V” Away.

Dude.  You gave up like 11 goals to the Wings last week.  Enough is enough.

Put the V away.  And to all you transplants out west?  Good on ya.

Bob Duff

It also doesn’t hurt that many ex-patriot Michiganders make their homes in some of those opposing towns. “It helps,” Osgood said. “In San Jose, they don’t like us there and it’s the same in Dallas, but there’s a lot of (Wings) fans in Anaheim and L.A. and especially in Phoenix, which just makes it fun and enjoyable for us to play. We enjoy the support and we want to perform well, because they only get a chance to see us once or twice a year.”

It’s a Live Blog bitches.  On Versus.  Oh, the quality.

Ah, Turco.  How we love to thump thee.  It’s not that you’ve done anything to us we wish to avenge; it’s just that kicking your ass is familiar, like a soft blanket or a warm glass of milk, and reminds us of peaceful, gentle times.

A primate for sure, but a non-human one.  More like a gorilla or baboon.

From the Dallas Morning News Stars Blog, doing a live blog of their own.

Tim Cowlishaw points out that Hossa has been a slightly better free-agent addition than Sean Avery was for the Stars.

Chief, the wit around here is getting so sharp that drinking 2 hours prior to the game should become mandatory.

Have you actually watched the Wings play this season?

Other Cowlishaw musings:

In retrospect, they probably should have filled the Hindenburg with Helium.

Titanic not as unsinkable as previously thought.

I shouldn’t have rushed out and bough 900 cases of Crystal Pepsi.
