Yzermania19 1 Report post Posted April 15, 2008 So someone doesn't like the string bracelet idea...that's just too damn bad. Look, if you don't want to do it - whether you are male or female, growing a playoff beard, wearing a bracelet, t-shirt or jersey or whatever - then don't. No one is forcing anyone to do any of this stuff. The intent of the string bracelets is for the ladies to do something other than not shave our legs for two months (and trust me, the guys would all be whining about having prickly-legged women by the time the Cup final starts...) to show our support for the Wings in the playoffs in a fun, creative way. I mean, I can't wear a t-shirt or sweater every game day - while my office has casual dress, we can't wear any band or sports team gear or anything with any kind of slogan on it (other than the company name, of course...). However, I can get away with the string bracelets, although my boss asked me to remove them should we ever meet with a client. If you want to participate, great! Join the Red Wings String Bracelet Sorority. If you don't want to participate, then don't. And if you think it's stupid, STFU. There is no need to put anyone down for the way they choose to support their team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yzermania19 1 Report post Posted April 15, 2008 well s*** yours looks all professional and such looks good even with that dreaded white one. Mine don't look that good...just knotted here and there. Funny thing is, the first one I made I didn't count the knots when I was making it but I ended up with seven, including the one I made when I tied the thing to my wrist. Each series is the best of seven games. I still have to make my white one...but I don't wanna. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dawings 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2008 (edited) I was shaking and breaking out in a sweat but I finally managed. Now I assisted in 2 surgeries today and never broke a sweat....this was damn hard. But since I'm a strong and fair woman I had to concede. *sorry, crappy pic but don't have the werewithall to try again..double sigh* Edited April 15, 2008 by dawings Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I will be doing a "modified" beard route. shave after every loss.........I like to look presentable. what if the wings win the cup, but go to 7 games for each series, you could have a lot of bracelets.

Does Zetterberg shave even when its taking over his face? No. So we'll keep adding bracelets no matter what. if need be i will have 28 bracelets on my arm. or maybe 14 on each. if it gets to that point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
