I think that even beats out some Superbowls for worst National Anthem ever.

Good luck my friend. I'll be rooting for them. 

Still haven't totally got over the Pens winning games 6 and 7 v my Wings in 2009 (including game 7 at Joe Louis Arena...no amount of liquor could hold me down that night. I was upset that they even had to play a game seven and told all my friends that they would not win. I hated to have that sentiment, but have you ever had that feeling of impending doom and then had it play out? I did all day that day...).

But the Pens are a great team, and as much as I still dislike Crosby, he is an all time superstar player. I really like the role players and the spirit and spunk they show. A lot of the credit for that goes to Crosby because he sets the tone as the leader.

You're on very thin ice here BF. I might have to change it MF if you keep it up. And how did '08 work out? 

Well burgh, it was a totally dreadful day in every way for me. A day that I will never forget, unfortunately for me. Just earlier that afternoon, I was mowing my lawn and a Comcast installer put a cable across my yard that led to the neighbor's house. Somehow as much as I tried to avoid it, I hit it. I went to tell them I accidentally hit it and nobody was home.

Two hours later I had the police knocking at my door. The police! They accused me of deliberately hitting the cable. I told them, and the scowling neighbor that was ridiculous and asked the bitchy neighbor why she didn't at least come and talk to me about it before wasting the time of the police. If anything it was Comcast's fault, the thing was in my yard and should have been buried.

I was asked to visit my best friend's house to watch game seven. I told him I would start to, at least...but that I was not confident at all in their chances and that I'd leave if I wasn't comfortable with how the game progressed. He said "nonsense", the Wings were going to roll over the Penguins. I left after the second period and rushed back home.

I watched the end of the game and was grimacing through the handshakes and Cup presentation when I get a knock on the door. It was the whiny neighbor's snotty little teenage daughter bitching at me because I caused her to miss some idiot show, "The Bachelor" or some crap.

She has no idea how fortunate she was that I did not slap her little ass right off my stoop. Five shots of Jim Beam later and I was out and done for the night.

Except when they were skating on slush in game three the Pens have been too much to for the Sharks to handle hopefully they can finish it off Thursday.

I'm proud of the CBC as I haven't seen one shot of the Buttplug as of yet.

1-0 Sharks. Shitty goal on Murray.

PP Penguins.

2-2. I can't post this shit fast enough.

3 posts in 10 seconds.

Pens let a lot of fans down. Shot outside the Console Center before the game. It looked like that through the whole game. At least until the last minute and a half.



The Jumbotron that they were watching is at the bottom right of the photo.

DAMN!!!!

Hope the Pens win Sunday and end this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A great gentleman, a great father and a man known as "Mr. Hockey" passed away this morning.

Gordie Howe was 88 years old. Anyone on here is not surprised that he lasted this long given the fact that he not only played professional hockey with his two sons at age 50, but was the best player in the league while he was doing so.

He staved off the final buzzer with many "Gordie Howe Hat Tricks" over the last two or three years.

RIP and God Bless You.

He's been pretty damned great in the playoffs. I'd damn sure consider him for the Conn Smythe should they seal the deal.
