You made me laugh! (Also I did not know that about the regulation W's.) I'd just add: so uhhh......in this thread.....uhhhhh, are we bitching about the fact that the Red Wings have a great first line that produces goals and wins games? GAH! Only in Detroit. Football season is OVER people. You're officially allowed to watch your team WIN now. Grab a beer and cheer. aloha P.S. just occurred to me that this LGW.com thing would've been an absolute blast back in the late 70's and 80's.

Other quotes: "Well it looks like I'm now the most educated man in a U.S. state.......I finished 2 years of high school. They found out I speak 2 languages - called me a space alien. They're trying to get me to run for President of Tennessee now." Locker room - "For the last time, NO! I don't label my skates with the 'L' and 'R'........I memorized it." Moving day - "They're called 'books". They're for......forget it. Just please take the box marked "library" into the.....oh nevermind. I'll find it." aloha

Is Nashville still in "Tennessee"? Someone please release Detroit from this western conference ASAP. aloha

I'd be pissed if I were an NHL goalkeep that was accessed one GA when I didn't allow a goal. Course I'd be pissed that I grew up to be an NHL goalkeep first. My pants would also probably be on backwards.

Like Bert or not - he's gonna come to da Wings. Holland is FOREVER pulling that trigger on getting those large skilled tough guy types. Kenny "grit" Holland they outta call 'im. Welcome Bert! aloha

I hope the MLS does well with this move for selfish reasons. My cousin Greg just got traded (or bought out by the Montreal Impact?). He's now with the Toronto FC. He is or was Team Canada's starting goalkeep in that World Cup thing as well. He pisses me off because he is good looking and nice and smokes the rest of the family at our annual golf tourney/family reunions EVERY year. He and his younger twin brothers have been shooting scratch for about 10 years now. My team will cheat next year. (Nine hole scramble - I'll fill out our card IN ADVANCE this summer.) Anyways - If anybody would like tix to one of those home games, drop me a note. Greg's stats and awards >> BIO

Stay healthy? He played through his share of injury. And there are 2 ways to look at that. Was he being a 'company man' or was he keeping some streak alive. Not really criticizing Jr., just saying is all. Bottom line for me is that I'm sorta a Tram homer to begin with. Grew up with him and Sweet Lou as Tigers. Tram's 9-20 performance in the 84 WS was god-like. He's as nice in person as you'd think. (Yeah touch me - I hit a bucket of balls next to him at Beechwoods. Quite sure he never returned after that bother-fest. Hey it's not everyday I get to do something like that.) Anyways............... They both should be there. aloha

The old days? Yup......PMs should be sign of hard skating. In this NNHL? Had to vote no. Stay outta da box and odds are heavy that you get the 'W'. aloha

Yeah me too........and ESPN tv/radio is now officially on a 1 week blackout with me.

Personally I'd be happy to just watch the Wings in the race to the playoffs around March. That would constitute a job well done in the first year of all these changes. Maybe I'm just too easy - Maybe I'm nuts for thinking this squad can compete? OK - Your turn............

5 hours till rd 1 game 4 face off....................

I'm all in favor of changing things that are bad. Try Wait. aloha

I've never actually purchased a copy of either one, but voted against SI. After what they and the LPGA did to Michelle Wie last year they can kiss my ass forever. Big Wiezy No Ka Oi. aloha

Picture Wars is the name of the thread......gets goofy with too much rambling. Where were we now?

Spurs spurs and more spurs! Super!

Mad cow.

She's awfully pretty and all.....but if I had to nibble on some ribs........

Mac is gone........Shanny wears panties...etc etc...... So do the Wings even bother? I personally think we do. A tough guy keeps other players safer than any face-guard or pad. ? ?

There should've been a 3rd option >> [_] Both - Revenue sharing will help maintain a 30 team NHL. Ilitch writes checks to this guy: aloha

Over 1/2 way through now. Anybody changed their minds? I'm now expecting a first round exit. Wings will be frustrated by an opponent that checks hard and doesn't get whistled for it. It's not an original idea, which makes it all the more sad. aloha

bump

And also to Gordie, Gordie is "Mr Hockey". Signs autographs that way too. That's why I voted Stevie. Gordie is a bitter, beaten old man now. Has been for many years.
