    What has Bryz done again ?

    That was pretty funny. The fans were chanting "Ilya" to get him off his game. It didn't faze him one bit. he just flapped his arms a few times to the chanting. He wasn't doing it all game or anything. I think it was in the 3rd when they started doing it. I do like that guy.

    The Goose is Loose Game

    FINALLY! Stick to one corner and don't get distracted. Now all I need is for the Lions to win the Superbowl and I can die in peace.

    The Goose is Loose Game

    Unfortunately this Goose doesn't like to go into the corners. I'm still working on it. Thanks for the tips.

    Glendening signed to 3 year extension

    I'm good with this. He does his job, likes dogs, and is signing relatively cheap.

    The person below me game...

    Nope. Nowhere near it. It sounds cool, though. The person below me has touched both the Pacific and Atlantic oceans.

    The Goose is Loose Game

    I've only reached the 9th level. Do I have to go to work tonight?
  7. Weiss... Gosh, the name rings a bell... He's not the one of the injured that will make or break things for us. Let him get better and start fresh next year. Then we'll have a chance to see him in a full season without injury and decide whether or not he's a bust. In the meantime, LTIR is acceptable.

    The person below me game...

    If you're talking peel-and-stick, I've done it. Actual tile with grout and all that? Not so much, although I did the section of the wall over my bathroom sink. It was my first DYI project, so it could have been better. Lots better. People think it's cool, but I'd do it differently if I had to do it again. The person below me owns a musical instrument (other than their armpit or other body parts).

    What is everyones second favorite team?

    Nonsense. If the Wings aren't on, I'll watch other games. Granted, this time of year it's usually a game that has an effect on the standings as far as the Wings are concerned, but I'll also watch the Wild because they're televised around here or the Jets just because they're there. If someone wants to watch Wings and only Wings, that's certainly their prerogative, but to say that anyone who watches or follows another team isn't a true Wings fan is presumptuous and false. I present Exhibit A: me. Case closed.

    4/4 GDT - Sabres 2 at Red Wings 3

    Someone should seriously be named Pavstav Nyqsyuk. In fact, if Glendening gets his first goal tonight, I demand that he name his first (or next, as the case may be) child Pavstav Nyqsyuk Glendening. Easy win, which means that we'll either lose 28-6, or get a loser point, or maybe- just maybe- win it in a shootout. I fear the boys won't show up against a push-over team like Buffalo.

    I'll see you guys in July- unless I solve it earlier. Thanks for sharing.

    Mitch Callahan takes selfie after puck to the mouth (GRAPHIC)

    Wait- the Griffins scored and they disallowed the goal because of the blood and teeth coming out of his mouth? I say he deserved to have his team get the goal. Good thing they won.

    I write and sing, but don't ask me to draw. The person below me was pranked on April Fool's Day.

    What is everyones second favorite team?

    The Wild. I get them on tv, so if the Wings aren't on, I tune in for the Wild games. Every time I've gone to see the Wings play, it's been vs the Wild since they're the only place nearby that I can get to without a passport. Wild fans are generally the nicest people around. You can go to their place in full Wings gear and get treated like a welcomed guest. There may be some good-natured ribbing, but they're pretty knowledgeable (except for the loud ones online, but that's any team). Plus they have a great anthem that is fun to sing along with, even if you're in Wings gear. Now that the Wings are out of the west, the Wild are my team to root for in that conference.

    I really don't. The person below me has lost their wallet/purse at some point in their life.

    They Call me...Tater Salad

    Kick me out? You and whose army? Seriously, he does need to respect his neighbours. There's a time and place for partying, and we should find as many times and places as we wish. (I hope my neighbours see this. Loud bastards.)

    Never liked them or duck. Too tough and gamey. The person below me brings home odds and ends because they "might use them someday".

    The person below me game...

    Ugh. Get better soon! I had it in January and it took forever to get over it. The person below me is wearing something red.

    3/23 GDT: Red Wings vs Wild

    Let's hope that yesterday's win doesn't make them over-confident. The Wild have been playing well. I was talking to a guy at the game yesterday and he said that he never under-estimates the Wings, but that everyone else thought that since we were so beat up that it would be a cake walk for the Wild to beat us. If anyone wants to see pics I took at yesterday's game, they're here: http://s261.photobucket.com/user/55fan/library/Wings%202014?sort=3&start=all&page=1 I think the Wild will come out harder today since they'll have something to prove after yesterday. If the Wings give it a full 60, they'll win it.

    How does Kronwall not have a concussion?

    I was at the game and was sitting a couple of rows behind the bench, right on the tunnel. When they skated him over to the tunnel, he looked totally dazed, like he didn't know what was going on. Piet came out and was talking to the D coach and Babs, and then went back in. Kronwall was out for a while, but seemed ok once he got back.
  22. Whoa. Leggy got him a few inches lower than I thought. I had thought it was the belly. Either way, it's nasty and could cause some serious injuries. I hope there's no suspension since we need him, but I can't argue if there is.

    Finally-TooToo called up

    Oh, please let him be playing in Minneapolis! I have to agree with GMR. Nothing like an impending court date to take your mind off work. Bert has seen his better days. He's not as bad as some people make him out to be, but we've seen from the Kid Line what an infusion of enthusiasm can do for a team. With Bert out, Tootoo provides the snarl factor that Bert has been providing by default. It's been a long, hard season with all the injuries. Maybe a fresh body and pumped up attitude is what we need.

    And now Pettigrew re-signed. Good news.

    Official Detroit Lions thread

    Getting Tate is amazing. I don't think we've had this balanced of a team in my life. Heck, we haven't lost a game since we signed him. So far, so good!
