Next entry: Arrogant?  Hell Yes.  Still.  Always.

Previous entry: Leino To The Doghouse?  Shocking, I Know.

The Feeling I Get When I Look To The West?  Nausea.  Let’s Wrap This MF’er Up With A Live Blog

We’re going early and I have my reasons.

With a win tonite, the Wings head home with 6/10.  Still…the most depressing, disgusting, hazardous-to-your-pets road trip any of us can remember. 

Noted. 

Nobody cares what the rival bloggers are saying, or the MSM.  Nothing would bring more joy to more people than a disastrous Detroit season.

But the bandwagon is getting light and the time is coming.  You’re either in or you’re out.  There’s a difference between being a passionate fan who takes losses personally, and being a “Wing fan” who seems to literally enjoy the struggles of the past month to confirm your own agenda.  Read that again if you have to.  Blasting the Wings for poor play is one thing and it’s expected.  Reveling in it behind the facade of being a “real fan” is bullshit.

Nobody’s being banned from this site. That talk is tiresome.  But when the Wings turn this around, we’ll see who climbs back aboard.  When it’s no longer easy to pretend you know more than Mike Babcock, we’ll take a look back to October and see who stuck and who fled.

These Wings have given us a lot of amazing memories for much more than a decade.  They deserve the benefit of the doubt and a lot of frigging rope. 

Those who stay will be rewarded.  I know this.  Do not give up on this team.

It’s a Live Blog bitches and if anyone’s got a feed? I’d appreciate it.  iwocpo at gmail dot com.

Too soon?

Nope, I chuckled.

(although you should keep that homo-erotic nonsense nonsense off this serious and mature blog)

By the way… do you know what the name of the movie was that he was working on at the time?  It was “Crouching Tiger, Spanking Monkey”.

His body was found in the classic “Hanging Water Lily” Kung-fu pose.

He either has a concussion or has the 19 mixed up with his Pittsburgh twitter friends.

Second reference from you about that HTT.  It was stupid the first time and now it’s just weird. 

Questioning the loyalty of 19….

I think we all know that’s not the case.

You have to stand, apologize, and buy the bar car a round of drinks.

Did that once. Won’t be doing it again.

You have a good time pushing buttons when you know we’re all stressed out about how this season has gone.  Glad you’re having fun. You should consider starting your own blog.  Oh.  Nevermind.

Not too many here either…and I bought two huge boxes of Rice Krispie treats…

No HD feed for Wings game.  I wish NHL network would carry both games.

Dial it back, sometimes, Gramps.  Tyler from Arizona is great at getting us all wound up being permanently negative, and you know how well that is received typically.

Wings almost gave up a goal right off the bat and then Wings had a good rush and chance the other way.
