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.

Due to prior arrangement, I must cede the laptop to the girlfriend.  But before I go, I must report that Little Sammy pooped INSIDE the box, which makes the girlfriend, and by association me, happy.

Okay these men have no clue how to speak English.

They must be stopped by strangulation with their own tongues.  It’s the only way, I think.

I swear, the color guy has a Printed-in-China English dictionary in front of him - where do some of these words come from?

“Lubricious”.  I’m starting to think Razor may read this blog from time to time.

Kronwall had Peterson lined up across the middle and backed away.  Interesting.

I think Peterson gave up the puck so Kronwall let up…or else I think Peterson would have died.

Whatever.  Turco looks so terrible, all they need is three or four more shots the rest of the night and this game is over.

I freaking hate the in-game interviews. So freaking stupid. Like the players or coaches are really going to say anything worthwhile during the game. They’re always going to say “we gotta get in deep”, “we gotta get the puck on the net”, “we gotta stay out of the box”.

We should start a hockey lingo bingo or maybe a drinking game.

So far they have referred to tennis, bicycling, and basketball.

Any other sports besides hockey they have been rambling about?  That’s all I got.

It would have to be the Tool Shed or the Workshop or something.  They have far too much toolage to be confined to a box.
