    You can't have it both ways. You can't kick and scream that the Americans did this and then turn around and do the EXACT thing you were condemning and act like anybody brought it upon you but yourself.

    It's a two-way street. Just the same generalization as Canadian's saying they are better and were going to win gold, etc. You certainly won't find any quotes from me that said that though. I knew this would be a hard fought game, and Canada won. That's all there is to it. Won't hear any excuses from me. Kind goes hand in hand with that gif above saying hockey is Canada's game. What is that supposed to imply? That was rhetorical, for those that can't tell. I was in a bar man, I didn't get to watch all the minor details like I normally would have so I am sure I missed plenty. I'd go back and watch it again, but that would be too painful.

    Please read all of my posts before replying to a previous one. Seriously? I think we have been pretty accommodating considering the circumstances. Would you like an American Lager while you wait? trololololololol

    Maybe it was Kessel. In all fairness, I went to a bar at lunch so I can't be held accountable for my short term memory loss. I just remember a cheap hooking call somewhere in there. It didn't matter in the end, just saying.

    I'm not blaming the refs for this game, but don't be a homer. What about the hook against Kane? Forgot who it was, but they sold it well.

    Well congrats Canada. As much as it pains me to say that, we didn't play hard-nosed enough and Canada was all over us. Do we really have to keep Beiber?

    Me too. I am at work, undoubtedly watching the game, putting it on the 70" in fact. But I'd MUCH rather be at a bar, only, I have no idea what bar I could go to where other people might or might not be watching the game. I am wearing my USA Miller jersey today. Somehow the Rafalski jersey didn't make sense.

    I was thinking about this...and I concluded I think everyone should just swallow their whistles tomorrow and let us play.
  13. I've actually read some pretty interesting stories about how guys in the NHL with upper-body injuries are occasionally just hangovers, it wasn't in reference to the Wings though. I don't remember where or who it was about, so take that as you will, but I don't really find it that far-fetched.

    Cheers mate. I didn't get any Molson while I was in MI, but I had plenty of Labatts. Dare I even show you the weather where I am? LOL http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=78248
  15. Yeah, I feel ya on that one. I was like, dang it, be a jerk so I can hate you Cindy. And the Huds stories are funny. So he really was a player.

    The post you quoted, and partially yours, reminded me of that scene in 24/7 when Babs was skating with Brendan and said something to the tune of: "When Smitty has the puck I'm like alright, he's gonna make a good pass, and them I'm like, oh dang, Smitty is going to pinch. You know what I mean?"

    I'll let it go when I well please. I was clarifying WHY there was such an uproar about it TO HIM, so why don't you let it go?

    You didn't say you don't enjoy women's hockey, you said it doesn't matter. If you leave things open for interpretation, people will interpret them.

    Same story here. It's fairly sad when the most hockey-oriented place I can be is at work. I actually had to have Hooters put the game on yesterday and she put it on CAN/LAT *gasp* then I asked her to change it and she asked if it was really that important, then I threatened to leave and she changed it. Although, once it was on, everyone was watching it.

    Tomorrow is basically the gold medal game in most of our minds (while completely knowing there is a medal game after that). To be quite honest, I'd rather beat Canada than win gold, although the latter would be great. FOR KING AND COUNTRY! You forgot Cindy/Toews on that whine list.
