    WQF Game 2 GDT: Red Wings 4, Predators 2

    As a side note - 3:45 left in the 3rd..heard on NBC. from the crowd: ELLLLLLL-IS! ELLLLLLL-IS! YOU SUCK! Hmmmm, I thought only lesser fans and cities did that?

    I wish I could print this out as a poster..

    Manny in studio on Vs

    Don't be so quick to say he shouldn't make a career of it. Stammering idiots like Larry Murphy draw paychecks, why couldn't Manny? In full disclosure, the Vs. games have been blacked out for me since the 200 miles between Memphis and Nashville allow Nsh to designate this is a "home" game, so I haven't seen/heard Manny. I've had to listen to everyone's favorites: Pete Weber and Terry Crisp on FSN South.

    Game 3 Round 1 4/14/08

    I think it's the generalizations about Tennesseans/Southerners that gotten under some of our collective skins around here.

    Game 3 Round 1 4/14/08

    I have an idea for the front that I'm keeping to myself for the moment, but for the back, I'm thinking about: Nashville Predators, stinking like Catfish since 1998. I my head, that seemed pretty funny - how does it look in print? WingsZR2 - I'll be in a white Z jersey hanging out with a guy who looks like Shrek. Unfortunately, I'm sure he'll be wearing the mustard yellow Pred 3rd jersey. Just look for these 2 guys at the Sommet instead of at the Joe where this picture was taken.

    Don't worry, even some of us Americans don't understand the fascination either. When I was a young kid, I liked NASCAR. Once I got my driver's license - it didn't seem nearly as cool.

    GO TIGERS GO

    Go Memphis! Can Calipari and the boys bring home our first ever NCAA title? This is the year!

    Game 3 Round 1 4/14/08

    That is great stuff. Depending on how early we get there, I may have that on tap. It'll be a lil' tougher since it's their barn. hmmmm.. pondering this....

    Game 3 Round 1 4/14/08

    Underneath my Z jersey I'm gonna have my tshirt from the last time we met in the playoffs. If only The PAIN TRAIN was more of a well known nickname. I'd like to steal someone's idea on here about "TOOTOO, MEET CHOOCHOO!" I liked the photoshop with the penis whistles too, but that's pretty inappropriate when kids are around. I don't think I'd make it in the door.

    Game 3 Round 1 4/14/08

    Yeah, as if that the ONLY barn you hear that in. Whatever. Way to paint all Nashville fans with a broad brush. Just proves my point. Thanks for the suggestion, sverige. I'm not worried about my safety. I've been to a dozen Wing games at the Sommet (formerly GEC) and despite a bunch of trash talking, I've never felt in danger.

    2008 Photoshop War: Predators vs. Red Wings

    Now THAT would be funny. I think the creator confused TooToo with CheeChoo. Hence the Sharks jersey. Either way, it is a good picture.

    Detroit could be screwed

    Eddie Olcjhdfkshjgdfek (however you spell his name) predicting that Detroit is a litte overrated and the Blackhawks could prove that. This was taped on 3/30 according to NBC. http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/22825103/vp/23869143#23869619 After tonights game... nope, he's still wrong.

    Detroit could be screwed

    I re-read my title and realized that people might think I was/am worried. I'm not. I was trying to be sarcastic while referring to yet another anti-Detroit article/segment.

    Free Center Ice?

    What part of Mississippi? Comcast Midsouth (Memphis and north Mississippi) does offer CI. Just curious where they are that they wouldn't offer it.

    Free Center Ice?

    As a former ComCRAPstic customer and current DirecTV viewer, I must point out - Comcrap's not a monopoly if you have another choice- and you do. I was forced to go to satellite after moving to an area with a private, family-owned cable company (Millington Cable) that only rolled out digital cable last year. "Do you have the NHL Center Ice package?" No. I do not regret the switch to outerspace. So much HD content - wow! Even CI benefits from going to satellite - for every game there are usually 4 feeds; away SD, away HD, home SD and home HD. Comcast only had 1 HD CI channel in my area and I never could get it to work since it was an NHL/MLB shared channel and always showed as NOT PURCHASED despite numerous phone calls. And they also offer the NHL Network in SD and HD.

    Larry Murphy

    Don't argue with me - argue with Murphy, he said it.

    Larry Murphy

    After seeing this thread, I had to go look up my former comments.. Here they are:

    Larry Murphy

    I'll say it again at the risk of getting another PM from someone claiming to be his daughter. (Yes, that really did happen.) I think he looks like Conan O'Brien's retarded "special" brother. He may have done wonders on the ice, but I just don't dig him in the booth (or between the benches).

    Canucks' postseason hopes have taken a hit.

    Why would we want to be in the birthing suite with your wife? I keed, I keed. My wife and I had our first 13 months ago and it is a great experience. Second one will be here in August.

    History lesson time

    History lesson time

    This place cracks me up. Who are you (or anyone on here) to question "how much of a fan" someone is? There may be 50 fans that started liking Detroit yesterday and have NO IDEA of the history. They may be the greatest fans in the world, but you feel you have the right to question their "Fan-ness" because they may not know the minutia of every minute of the Wings' existence? Puh-leez. For the record, I do know what happened on the date in question, but the self-righteous attitudes around here piss me off. We're supposed to be "brothers and sisters" united by the common love of the greatest franchise in all of sports and yet people still have to try and feel superior to others for no apparent reason. /rant over
