I was going to get a new car, with my own money (I've been cut off for a while), but with Chrysler going down and my dad saying he doesn't know the future of his job (he works at Ford though) I'd rather save my money just in case my dad does lose his job. Sorta gotta keep the house. *edit* It can be tight if the down payment wipes your bank account out

How can you say she actually didn't bring up Hasek...and go on to say she was adressing a judgement about Hasek? Which was it there Doggy? Did she not bring up Hasek? Or did she? Nah, I didn't make any points at all, Doggy.

But here is the thing, Hasek isn't on the team. And that's last year. I don't care about last year. Other than the fact they won the cup and I hope they repeat. You're kidding yourself if you honestly believe that the Wings are playing just as good defensively now as they were last year. You are just looking at the player level. Of course it's the same team sans a couple players. That doesn't mean they are playing the same way.

I hear ya, but to think girls look up to Paris Hilton...and you know it's a good number of them too...it's just not right. My sister thinks The Hills is real..................I sincerely wish I was joking. But the fact is, she thinks it's real. I tried explaining to her why do you think it wasn't on during the writers strike. She thought the one chick went to Paris and that's why there wasn't any new episodes.

Don't really want to beat a dead horse but...it's easy to say that I am bullying someone when they didn't provide me any bits of that information and let me continue going on about how they say "I'm single" and "this is a low-point in my life" hours apart and how they have done the same thing countless times before and look for the same pity. Had you said what is above in the first place, I probably would have said something like this: Sorry about your dad, I couldn't imagine living without my dad. One of my friends dad just passed away from lung cancer. Never smoked and didn't have asthma. Needless to say it's a s***ty situation and I hope the doctors caught the cancer early. And obviously since it's Michigan I think most of us can relate to the money situation. I also think I know how Lizz's mystery person is...do I get a prize if I guess correctly?

I do fine, thank you. This thread is about Osgood. Not Hasek. Puckloo likes to think otherwise.

I do, when you CONTINUE to bring Hasek into discussions he has no reason to be in. We get that you like Hasek. It's hard not to, the only reason why I have any dislike of Hasek is because of you. And I have had other people tell me the same thing. We also get that you try to defend him. BUT OH WAIT THERE IS NOTHING TO DEFEND. Yet you STILL drag Hasek into goalie conversations. If you can actually contribute other than anything related to Hasek that would be great. If not, do us all a favor and go to www.icanonlytalkabouthasek.com and stay away from goalie threads. Again, nobody wants your crap about Hasek when he isn't even on the team.

Jesus Christ As stated many times before, Hasek was playing with the best defense in the league and the least penalized. Can you say the same for Osgood and Conklin this year? Not quite, far from it actually. How many shots did Hasek face last year? And Osgood for that matter? How many shots are they facing now? DOUBLE? TRIPLE? How many stupid penalites are they taking this year? How many did they take last year? Also, when Hasek lets in goals 4,9 and 11 seconds apart (or whatever it was) that's not a sign of a shoddy defense. That's a sign of a goalie that had no means to ever start the playoffs. Thankfully (not for you) he did that so it opened Babcock's eyes and let Osgood start, the rest is history. F%^ng A I know you are in Hasek's ass all the time but give it a freaking break...nobody wants to hear your non-stop crap anymore because THERE IS NO REASON TO. HASEK ISN'T EVEN ON THE FREAKING TEAM. The only reason why you continue to post on this board is so you can talk about how Hasek got the short end last year and Osgood has it so much easier aka bitching aka pissing and moaning. Hasek was a great goaltender, there is no need to bring him into a discussion of this nature. If anything it further proves how he was a has been last year and should have been a back-up to Osgood all season long. That being said, I don't know why people are still discussing this. Osgood and Conklin are one of the few reasons why the Wings have a shot to win every night. Conklin was a big reason why that San Jose game was remotely close (even though it wasn't in relation to the score and overall play) and Osgood was one of few reasons why they were able to get a point in Anaheim. Stats weigh less for a goalie when a team is playing horribly in their own end, taking way too many dumb penalties and just not being disciplined as the Wings are. However, when you are a Hall of Fame goalie facing 10-15 shots a game due to the fact that he has a team playing the best defense in the league by far, stats do come into play. That goalie has high expectations. That of which he never accomplished.

I'd rather get to the bottom of it. As lfd said if there is more to it other than him crying about being single than tell us, he is after all coming in here to get sympathy. If it's something serious then sure I'll talk about it, I'll give him all the sympathy he wants. I have absolutely no problem with that. But, again, as lfd said he comes in here always crying about how he is single again and he's looking for a pity party. So the kid didn't get it, and he starts to say I don't understand what's going on. Again, as lfd said, he's been to Iceland and got a new bike. Tough life. Also, if he wants to tell me to f(*& off, I'd rather his 4 foot nothing 90 lb ass fly to Michigan and say it to my face. Don't try to get my pity by just crying that your F-R-E-A-K-I-N-G 17 and single. Ohhhhhh booooo-hoooooooo. If that's the worst that is going to happen to him then I don't feel sorry for him one bit. If it's something more serious, than tell me. Everyone has problems. If they are real problems he would be more open to explaining the situation and not just telling me to f*&$ off and that I think I'm all high and mighty (which actually all my friends come to me for advice). It's not my fault the kid, and most people, can't take honesty and wants everything sugarcoated.

I also blame the lack of TGIFriday. Not the restaurant. Anyone 22ish-28ish knows. Corey Matthews anyone? Kody? I can still sing every theme song from every show on that line-up. TGIFridays was THE definition of life lessons. It should have been called WBYWLEYNTKAL. Or... Watch Because You Will Learn Everything You Need To Know About Life. Saturday mornings were important too, because obviously, Saved By The Bell. You want to have a real problem? Try having to hide all the clothes you are trying to sell from your principal because you almost maxed out your dad's credit card and you have to try and pay him back. That's a real problem. And Lisa and company handled it like champs.

I didn't say all faith. And it certainly isn't a broad brush. You're fooling yourself if you don't think majority of the kids nowadays have everything given to them and it makes them much worse off. My sister just turned 20. In all reality she's still 15. She has no idea how to handle any situation. Media today doesn't help either. To lighten the mood: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1NvgLkuEtkA

Nobody. But in this case UK is freaking 17. I wish I was 17 and the one of the worst things that happens to me is being single. I would pay to be 17 and have that problem.

Sooooooooooooooooo...........let me get this straight. YOU dumped HER. Yet you are going cry to the general public about being single? Seems to me you brought that upon yourself there, kidd-o. If you didn't want to cry about being single you shouldn't have dumped her. You get taken seriously when you act like an adult, and not like you do on this board majority of the time. No curse words either, I'll wash your mouth out with soap. Nevermind, I can't. Child Services will come and take you away from me. Which is why I have lost faith in all humans under the age of 21. Can't spank your kid anymore. Children now have some f*ed up perception of what reality is because parents can't properly discipline their kid. Children seem to think they can get whatever they want or do whatever they want simply because their parents have to allow them to otherwise they are labeled bad parents to the general population because they discipline their kid. And on top of that, how do you expect people not to comment on something you post for the general public to see? Sorry, again if I'm harse, I'm a fan of brutal honesty.

Two way tie between Lilja and Lebda for the Norris this year

You can switch places with me and have real problems, because being dumped isn't one of them. Unless your dad has told you that his future at his job is up in the air and we have to keep the house, so I put two and two together. You're 17, you don't even know what a low point in your life is yet... And I hate to break the news to you, not gonna be the last time someone dumps you Sorry if I am a tad harsh, don't take too kindly to the woe is me thing.

Exactly. Coming from a goalie, but still what I'm about to say is common knowledge not being a goalie, goalie takes the shooter. He can try to cheat, but he's going to either look like an ******* or make the save. 9 times out of 10 it's the former. I would pose a small argument that given the situation of a 5-3 Osgood could have predicted that a pass was going to go across. But again, you don't want to take that risk and cheat but rather rely on the other three guys out there to nullify that pass. I personally feel Conklin is tons faster than Osgood going from side-to-side and even he wouldn't have had that. Salami tucked that into the short side corner.

The call simply goes to the home team. Like it or not. It was total BS, don't get me wrong, I instantly knew it was a high stick and asked myself why Osgood was skating to the locker room. But it doesn't change the fact that a play that sorta close goes to the home team. Think baseball. Close plays always go to the runner.

And thus the 10 page rant for Hasek begins... Saying Osgood has played brutal is overkill. Osgood and Conklin have kept the Wings in the games and are very much a big part to as what the Wings record is. Besides Hank and HDH, Osgood and Conklin are the best things going for the Wings right now, despite what their stats say. On several occasions they are making the first AND second save. As to the person who said the goalie has to be the best d-man on the PK, that is true, to an extent. 5 on 4's I totally agree. But it's out the door on 5-3's. In my eyes every NHL team should score every time on a 5-3, they are all simply too good not to. Osgood was one of three reasons why the Wings were able to get a point out of yesterdays game. The glove save he made from 8 feet out on Perry with seconds to go was insane. If you look up the definition of robbery that save is in there. Good thing Osgood has always had a quick glove, that's for sure.

Cujo. 'Tis too bad he got treated like a pile of s*** during his stint here.

The thing I liked most about the game was when they were celebrating after the shoot out at center ice; You could see Hossa messing around with Hank and Dats and company. Combine that with how excited Homer, Pav, and Hossa get when they score makes me think they are starting to get into Hossa's head that the Wings system and franchise is where he should be...for a long time. And I think Hossa is starting to see this. Now it does help that Hossa is starting to fit in and can be the most dominant player on the ice. Whether or not the money situation allows it remains to be seen, regardless I'm starting to think Hossa wants to be a Red Wing.

360 days to go until I get my sister haaaammmmeeerrreeeddddd at the bar. Her guy friend thingy got her flowers, +1, but he hasn't bought me a beer yet, that's about -8923467

Me: "Oh, hey, you're the chick that doesn't like guys with names that start with J, f&*^ off" Some chick: "I reeemmmeemmbeer you" *gives me the finger* Me: *su-fi* as I knew this would confuse this obviously drunken chick Some chick: "What is that" (I was correct, see above) Me: "That's old school Dane right there" Some guy: "Dude, you even look like Dane Cook" Me: "Yea, before he was a sell out though" ... Some chick: "If I call Josh can we drive him home" Me: "I'm right here, but what does my say matter, my name starts with J" Some chick: "Nooooot YOU" Me: "There only needs to be one Josh and luckily I have filled that quota" *enter this other Josh* Me: "Ok, this guy is either loves the c(*& or is a huge d-bag" Me: "Go give him this golf ball and ask if he likes these" Some chicks friend: "Oh my god, do you have to be such a blatant a$$hole?" Me: "Yes, I do, tell your friend over there to stop being a hypocrite and I won't have to be such a blatant a$$hole" Me: "I win" That's my story for the day

You guys are too nice. That's their own fault that they are dumb, they should study more. If the dumb kids get special treatment then wtf do I get? I should at least get a cookie for being freaking smart. Buuuutttttt then you would have to give the dumb kids two cookies just to make up for the one cookie they gave me. But first you gotta make sure they can fugging add up to two, and if they can, s***, give them three cookies. Why not right? People make it way too easy on kids nowadays...
