Drake_Marcus 890 Report post Posted March 12, 2007 Heres what the Cellblock(section 303 at the GEC where the stupid chants come from) has to say about the upcoming games Tues and Wed Good post until the top ten bomb was dropped. Honestly- just poorly written comedy. There's a reason why Dave has professional comedy writers do his jokes. So other then the poorly written jokes in the top ten (and it's not the subject matter- I still think the dead things is fairly clever as far as derisive team names go) I enjoyed reading that post. I'm sure everyone is richer for having read my post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure everyone is richer for having read my post. Yeah, the top 10 was lame at best. I personally am one of the non-chanting Predator fans and the fang-fingers embarass me to no end. Either way though, I will have to give it to Sec 303 for bringing the noise every game. Overall it is what it is, we needed gimicks and such to gain new fans at the start of the franchise and are still growing the fan base, so if all of this above helps in that matter, I can deal with it. Looking forward to tomorrow. Is it just me, or does everyone hate waiting for the next game day? Just get here already please. May the best team win. Can't wait.

vandypred 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2007 .....say the people who root for the Fighting Grey Poupons Yeah, they looked god-awful at first; but they've grown on me. Plus since they irritate everyone... why not?! ;-> Hate that I have to miss the game by having to go to my in-laws out in the sticks tomorrow night (Winchester, TN) for my highly pregnant wife to go to a baby clothes event and my father-in-law dislikes hockey (among other yankee things; but likes the NBA for some reason [????}). Then again, hell hath no fury like that of a pregnant woman and their screwed up hormones!!! Maybe radio will help out of Huntsville, AL or Chattanooga.

HuntsVegas Baby 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2007 TOP TEN REASONS THE DETROIT WING DINGS SUCK: 10. The city that brought us the Edsel, the Rambler, and the Pinto has to divert their shame to a "Hockey Town" moniker. 9. Red rhymes with Ted…and Nugent makes us ill. 8. Leipold is shipping in 20 million gallons of Visine to flush the GEC and get the red out! 7. They make more excuses than Lee Iococa. 6. Chelios and Schneider are still looking for walkers that have skates attached. 5. When they hit the ice, they look like a convention of department store Santas 4. The 8 legs of their octopus equals their cumulative IQ. 3. The color of their uni’s matches the shade of their lipstick. 2. A wing sticking out of a tire--no wonder the foreigners have built better automobiles. 1. Detroit is the Murder Capitol of the USA, but the Dead Things will get KILLED in Smashville! MORE REASONS: • Bill Lambier, Mark Aguire, Vinnie Johnson, Isaiah Thomas, John Salley, Dennis Rodman…. - Had the Japanese auto industry completely taken over the city, the team's name would've been pronounced "Led Rings."

Inultus 12 Report post Posted March 13, 2007 Your not right. if you find baseball boring then you should't of followed the tigers. I think Basketball is boring and I don't follow the Pistons. Even when they won the NBA championship. Umm, what is it I'm not right about? And FYI the reason why I followed the Tigers playoffs is because a lot of my friends got excited about them, so just being in their company made the game exciting for me even though I find the sport itself boring.

Jiri Fischer Fan 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2007 Ok so how about "Too bad the Preds weren't founded in the 80's. Would have been great to start a "USA-USA" chant when the Soviets, I mean, Detriot was on the ice. " Because Detroit=Russia? Even though we have two Russians on the team, one of which recently played for Nashville. And "Datsyuk should change his name to Dat-Suck." Yes, Datsyuk does suck. That is exactly why he is leading the Red Wings in points. And that is why he has more points than any one of the Preds. But I guess if that's the definition of sucking, then yes he does.

Bluedevils_13 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2007 With the Predators' 2-1 win over Columbus (which also completed an 8 game sweep of the season series), they are now 28 games over .500 for the first time in their history. You might recall that is the same amount of wins the Predators had in each of their first two seasons. Yet another indicator of how far this team has come in just 8 seasons, and a testament to the vision and patience of Leipold, Poile, and Trotz in sticking with "The Plan" to build from within. It is reaping huge benefits now. I mean with long-time Nashville prospects that have been drafted, and brought through the team's ranks such as Forsberg,Kariya,Sullivan,Arnott,Vishnevski,Dumont,Smithson,Nichol, and Hordichuk. Who can argue with that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Who can argue with that. actually. "The Plan" was to build a strong core through the draft and then when the team was strong enough, add free agents to put us over the top. So really, you can't argue with it. Legwand, Hartnell, Erat, Radulov, Tootoo, Hamhuis, Weber, Suter, Zanon through the draft. Timonen and Vokoun from the expansion draft. And really, Sullivan, Vishnevski and Forsberg were brought in through trades. Sullivan for two picks, Forsberg for two picks and two prospects (that the preds drafted) and Vishnevski was brought in for Eric Belanger, who was brought in for Josef Vasicek who was brought in for Scott Walker who was from the expansion draft. So those guys are technically part of "building through the draft". The only standout Free Agents that we've signed are Kariya, Arnott and Dumont. The others are role players who could be gotten anywhere. It's not like the Preds went out and bought this team if thats where you're going. The team was build exactly the way that we were told that it would be built since day 1. Did somebody from TENNESSEE (aka appalachia) really claim that the stereotype of a michigan hockey fan is that they live in trailers, inbreed and have no teeth? isn't that exactly what you picture when you think of whoever wrote that? Well, it IS the stereotype of southern folks (by the way, only east tennessee is in the mountains), and there's no use trying to gloss it over, a fair share of southerners do fit that stereotype to a T. But come on, it's not like the don't exist in Michigan. Get outside of the metro area and surrounding suburbs, and Michigan gets really hick, really fast.
