BobRouse03 31 Report post Posted November 5, 2007 http://blog.mlive.com/snapshots/2007/11/hi...ents_wings.html Can anyone explain to me what he means by this? Hitch usually has a dry sense of humor......my interpretation of the comment is this: He was kidding in saying that the Wings are typically so far ahead of the division that they "run and hide." The joke being that they run away from the other teams (i.e. have such a high point total) that they can't be caught and hide (e.g., that when they play their games against the division it doesnt usually mean anything to them say for 2 free points). I really doubt Hitch is implying that the Wings really "run and hide" from Columbus or any other opponents for that matter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I figured it was a compliment of some sort, I just didn't know what he was refering to. But your right, that is dry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Travis Justin 0 Report post Posted November 5, 2007 (edited) "There are going to be a lot of tough points out there, other than Detroit running and hiding from everybody." He's refering to the points as running and hiding, not Detroit. The quote should actually read: "There are going to be a lot of tough points out there, other than Detroit, running and hiding from everybody." That extra comma makes all the difference So he's just saying that Detroits not going to be the only tough team to get points against.

Doggy 130 Report post Posted November 5, 2007 Sounds like he's saying the points available when you play Detroit are very elusive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't steal it myself. A guy I knew, from a different forum, (I thought) made it for me. This was like almost a year ago. If I were you I'd take it as a compliment. Wonder if the avatar is stolen now too, since he supposedly made that too. Edited November 6, 2007 by Travis Justin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wings3:16 324 Report post Posted November 6, 2007 (edited) Actually, someone on this forum made it for me like 6 or 7 months ago...I also put it in my ebaumsworld.com sig...I don't mind if you use it, I was only kidding...I don't use the forum much now anyway - just thought it was funny Edited November 6, 2007 by Wings3:16 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
