You know, I'm mixed on this. Avery's an ass...but this seemed more fine-worthy than suspension-worthy. Now the game that everyone wanted to watch...is going to become the game that no one cares about (outside of Dallas and Calgary).

I would like Pronger to accidentally slip on a rut in the ice and then end up with his hockey stick very far up his rectum. Just sayin'.

Noticed that too when I was flipping over to the game (can't watch full-time tonight, still packing). They're awful. HATE the FS Pacific feed. Of course, the Ducks are angels.

Yeah, Joey Mac never really shone when he was called up. At least he's getting some play with the Isles while Dipietro is out yet again.

Awesome! Thanks, Jacqui! I know I've also seen some 'As Seen On TV' commercials (and I'm not falling for it, dammit ) showing a smaller exercise ball that basically goes along the small of the back, creating more downward motion too. You ever see anything like that? Basically it's like the crunch/sit-up doesn't end at the ground but continues a little further downward. I assume the same would hold true with the larger exercise balls, just in a different fashion. In any case, I think I'm definitely going to get one of those once we're done with the move. I've actually done the plank exercises in Wii Fit a few times, maybe I should start doing those consistently and see where it takes me. I remember the first time I did them, I actually fell over. I think that would help both the abs and the upper body to some respect, yes? THANK YOU for the great info tho, it's going to come in very handy for me. EDIT: Forgot to ask...what size would you suggest I get? 5'7", 175 lbs. Just looked on Amazon and I'm seeing 55cm, 65cm, 75cm. One chart I saw suggested that someone my height should go for the 65cm, but I figured I'd check with you first.

Ah, gives me a good reason to wear a jersey to work. Just gotta decide which one...

Was I the only one that did that? I remember last season there was a running gag that whenever I picked against the Wings, they'd win. This weekend though, picked 'em to win against Columbus, lose against Boston and end up having my best weekend of the season.

Woo woo! Here I am back at the office. (This is the closest you're getting to a smile, Jacqui. )

Finally hit my secondary goal today - 175 lbs. My primary goal was being able to get myself down below 200 lbs. before X-Mas and I hit that at the end of September. Still wouldn't mind losing a bit more, but right now my main concern is to tone away what remains of my gut. I've worked my way up to 60 jackknife exercises every (weekday) morning, but I wouldn't mind any other tummy-toning suggestions that anyone else here may have. I'm not expecting an overnight miracle, obviously - certainly didn't happen with my weight loss - but I'd like something that specifically targets that problem area.

You son of a... Hey, if I hadn't picked against the Wings on Saturday, it would have only been a 17 for me.

Bet he could exercise a loophole with a three-way trade.

Huh. I wasn't aware that Howard would improve our defense. Especially considering he's been getting outplayed by Larsson in GR.

Actually, yeah. I keep thinking he handled the defense too. But MacLean's still around, so there's no change there (and his credentials list him as "a power play specialist")...so it MUST be McCrimmon handling the defense. And therefore, the problem as far as I'm concerned. EDIT: McCrimmon was defensive coach in Atlanta, so it follows that he's coaching our defense...right into the toilet.

Well, if the scores hold as they are right now, I'll be at least 8/12 for Saturday. Not too bad thus far.

Well, at least Ozzie helped his SV% this game (.900). Conks, on the other hand, ended up with a .666 SV%. Eww. Oh well, at least it's another point for me in the weekend picks.

We suck! *clap clap clap* We suck! *clap clap clap*

Damn, Ozzie's only had to make two saves since he came in? Seems like more than that.

I'll be damned. No shutout for Fernandez.

PP. Woo frickin' hoo.

Well, I can take one positive from this...it's looking like my weekend pick for this game is correct.

Three goals on nine shots. Hello, Ozzie.

Wow.

Woo hoo, on the PK already.

McCrimmon has just destroyed this team's defense. You're right, it is embarassing.

2-0 Bruins. Ugh. 3 shots on goal. Double-ugh.
