4/16 GDT: The heat's on

Rate this topic

Recommended Posts

IJust finished the VS recap/preview and the last 10 minutes of the Preds/Shark game. I thought they would get better but wow I don't know how they could get much worse. Around the remaining 8 minute mark of the third the announcer started talking how the Preds were dominating and missing a golden opportunity to put the game away when at that point it was the Sharks doing that . It is really bad when you can't get the names of the teams right. Also no mention of the Wings/Flames game at all even though VS showed footage from the prior games at the end of the show. Just really bad for hockey with these guys trying to broadcast and comment on a game.

what do you do?

i'm the general manager of a large bar and restaurant in this here detroit area.

when i was younger, my sister would try to stay up longer than my brother and i. we used to call this "trying to out-cool us". there is no way i'm gonna let you "out-cool" me. now that i'm home, i'm waiting for my 5 month old to wake so i can feed her. so, i can stand here tapping my foot for a long time, little lady. i will not be "out-cooled".

k.

alright, but don't underestimate a man with nothing to lose, I have no job, and can go consistantly with very few hours of sleep, the only reason I EVER get off these boards is because everyone else leaves and there is no one to talk to but now I have a reason to stay, so we shall see.... :sly:

damn, this does not bode well for me. i have to sleep. my wife works tomorrow so i have my daughter all day by myself. (until game time, that's when the wife gets home!) we shall see, yes, we shall see.

and oh yeah, go get a job young man. (practicing being a dad)

furthermore, i know what was wrong with the url for the LGW LNC sig. what i mean is, i know why it wouldn't work for some.

What's wrong with it?

here is what you sent me:

now go look at the url you are using. somehow, a program you are using or photobucket condenced the url. it's missing the middle part. where the "..." is, that's where your missing script is. i'm not sure who made the suggestion last night about clicking properties and copying that url, but that's what i did. you did nothing wrong, but some program did you wrong.

and now i'm going to log off and pretend to go bed, so you will log off and i can "out-cool" you

done.

the weird thing is, when i went to edit my message and delete the url, the full "real" url was there. odd. we should actually delete these last few messages, go back to mine with the url and put in some horrible sig, so any bandwagon jumper gets hijacked into using a blue jackets sig featuring anders errickson. (who, by the way is a very nice guy)

okay, you win. you are cooler than me. but... you...are half my age, are not married and do not have the most adorable five month old daughter in the world. so i go to bed with a clean conscience. don't worry, all of the LGW-LNC is proud of us both. we'll just see who is tapping their foot in the "after" game thread tomorrow.

by the way, we named our daughter Lily. it was the closest i could get to the greatest d-man ever...Lilja.

you being 19 or 20, go as long as you can without responsibility. at 21 i quit school and ran away to be a rock star. i told my mother(good catholic mother) i had until i was thirty to figure it out. i told her, "jesus didn't do s*** 'til he was 30, and then he only had a three year career , and before that, he was a trade laborer". she laughed. then told me to f*^k off. point being, enjoy. but get the degree.

this time, really good night. i will sign off.

so, in my mind , 6 a.m. is the next day. elshup seems to have fallen asleep. i may have won this one. either way, i am really going to bed. for maybe 4 hours. 5 tops. who cares about sleep. it was a wise man who once said "sleep is for the weak".

okay, it was me who said that, last week.

k.

and i may never post this many times in a day again.

thanks.

No use in even trying to explain away that loss last night. Preds had no urgency, no intensity, wouldn't hit anyone, passed to nobody all night and walked out of there with nothing to show but a steaming pile of horse poo. GRRR!

Ahem..

I'd like to thank my parents for doing it 20 years ago. If not for them I would not only not be here, but would not be the HUGE Wings fan that I am today. They got me into thy Wings and I thank them for that everyday!

To my fave peeps on here, Offisdes, Rabs, HoH, OsGod, NFM25, Loo, Interminded, WingsRule, SchneidsisAwesome, SWF , FinRedWing,SuperCal, Viperar, VIB16, NN, BRTD, Flip Check, Aflac, BM, The Legend, Heaton, Barnes52, Outsider, EvaUnit, TL19, Amber, everyone in the LNC..and of course the most important person, Matt! If I forgot anyone..I am sorry, but I am just SO nervous that I cannot think straight. I know..I know..I should of come prepared with a speech, but I had no idea that tonight would be the night that I hit the big 10,000.

Most importantly, I'd like to thank the site LGW for being the best damn board out there and having the best, most knowledgable hockey fans in the world. That's right. LGW is life.

GO WINGS!!!!!!!

*wipes tears*

Thank you all.

That was the most beautiful post ever (and not just because I was mentioned first :sly: )

Oh man, you forgot to thank Ozzie for being the subject of about 1/2 of the posts.

You should have seen us almost semi-rooting for them :P

Mike is here now. He has been awake.

He has played Smash Bros.

He has returned from whence he came.

Also, big ups Reem! :clap:

Smash at 7am? Sick, sir!

I could only ever do that on a Saturday morning... and thus feel quintessentially relieved of, what's the word, "responsibilities". ;)

All of a sudden I feel the express wish that a modded version could exist: Tootoo vs. Samus? Link vs. Floppa? Mario tapdancing on Vokoun's baldhead? Make it happen, H.
