T-Ruff 47 Report post Posted May 1, 2007 I don't mind the 10:00 games. This way I can watch the Sens/Devils game at 7 and I don't have to get up until 10 in the morning anyways.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
captainsteviey 0 Report post Posted May 1, 2007 Aye. 12:45 and had to be up by 5:30. can anyone beat that turnaround? yep, watched every moment of the game, was AT work at 5:30am, so alarm goes of at 4:30. Stream of expletives begins 4:31. sucks worse when we lose, but it's the Wings, baby. No other option. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
puertoricanWingsfan 5 Report post Posted May 1, 2007 I did indeed stay up to watch the game. When we went into double overtime vs calgary last week, the damn sports bar was closing, so the waitress was cleaning around me. Luckily, they told me that they'd stay open for me 'til the game finished. The moral of the story is: Always give good tips! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DaKineMaui 8 Report post Posted May 1, 2007 Did I stay up? Is there any other option? This is Red Wing playoff hockey! pretty much says it all. But I'll add....the game started at 4pm here. This is MOST convenient. Yet for some reason I've called in to work for the last 2 days. ::cough::? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DyingAlive 27 Report post Posted May 1, 2007 Aye! Skipped my first period class too. I hate this Western Confrence crap. We shouldn't be playing teams in the pacific time zone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Barrie 900 Report post Posted May 1, 2007 I stay up for every playoff game. It's not to bad for me. I'm a contractor/painter and I work close to home (It's very rare when I have to drive more than 45 minutes to a job), so even if I start work at 8:00, I don't have to get up earlier than 7:00.

Geezus, that gives me goose bumps everytime I see it or hear it!!!! ty for the video. Watch how much faster Stevie looks right before that goal than all the other players do. It's almost weird.

dteowner 20 Report post Posted May 1, 2007 Gotta stay awake. Playoffs, doncha know! The long nights start to pile up, though. Bad thing is that the Wings haven't done terribly well in those late-night games... If I'm going to put in the effort to stay awake, the Wings could have the decency to win, eh?

Zeke 5 Report post Posted May 2, 2007 Yeah, I hate staying up late. But I think it is all worth it. The level of fatigue is directly proportional to the outcome of the game. ie the Wings lose,you feel like crap the next day,they win,and all is good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SouthernWingsFan 854 Report post Posted May 2, 2007 Aye aye and I think I got everybody beat today. Couldn't get to bed until about 1:00am CT, but still woke up like I normally do during the week. Only about 3 1/2 hours of sleep... Woke up at 4:30am for breakfast and reading the latest news 5:45am workout at the gym Left for work around 7:00am Worked until about 5:00pm ish through my lunch hour. So clearly I got the smallest amount of sleep but was still the most productive, so I win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

redwingsfan19 0 Report post Posted May 2, 2007 Of course i stayed up, this is the playoffs. Besides I would be up anyways, i'm a night owl! I actually enjoy later games. I can never fall asleep after any game win or lose. They gets me all hyped up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Favshortie51913 0 Report post Posted May 2, 2007 I stayed up late and I wanted a refund even though I am a night owl. They made way too many mistakes and you never know which team is going to show up. The team that won at home the game before or these lack luster teams... that don't show any grit or heart.

Grypho 195 Report post Posted May 2, 2007 Aye, I'm here, but that's no feat. It's now 10:55AM in China. Sun's out, beautiful spring day, and a good time for hockey. (of course, any time's a good time I suppose) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
