pavyaz19 1 Report post Posted April 25, 2008 add lob to the list...and youll be dead by 10:34 of the first.... yeah, there was a drop pass at the point between someone's legs that went 5 feet... he called it a "Lob." What a freaking idiot, I hate Emrick. He sucks so bad. Making up words, reminding us when there are 175 seconds left in the period, slow at calling the play... i hate him. By the way, the Versus camera guy is nearly as bad as Emrick. He must be used to shooting baseball games, he can't keep up with hockey at all. Ruining my experience... I blame Bettman, ha.

rbochan 15 Report post Posted April 25, 2008 i'm not sure if someone's created one yet or not, but i thought i'd throw out a few ideas... The last time I played a drinking game was during the last VS Rangers@Sabres broadcast on 2008-03-10. We had to drink every time Emrick and company mentioned Sidney Crosby, the departures of Drury/Briere/Campbell, DRRRIIIIIIIVE!!, Rangers in their traveling whites, etc. Everyone was trashed by the end of the first period. It also inspired my avatar. Listening to Emrick's or Beninati's mindless rambling concerning Sidney Crosby (no matter what teams are playing) who walked uphill both ways through four feet of snow to the rink every Tuesday after a new moon rose and always managed to stop at Tim Horton's on the way AND OH NO WHATS THIS? Something's happening in the game? DRIIIIIIIIIVE! And then don't bother with a replay (Ideas...for life...) because they have to go back to "Hockey Central" so you can look at Keith Jones' godawful hairpiece looking coif or even worse, Brian "Capt. Hair" Engblom. I mean... c'mon guys, you're on TV, visit a frikken barbershop already. Versus is awful, second only to NBC, where if a playoff game doesn't end in regulation, they'll switch over to a rained-out horse race or a re-run of Friends or some garbage.

datsyukonethree 0 Report post Posted April 25, 2008 (edited) The most enjoyable hockey drinking game I've ever played was last year when we were watching Dallas/Vancouver and drinking every time an announcer said "Stu Barnes." This works with pretty much any player whose full name sounds better than just their last name. (Jiri Hudler anyone?) Another one of my favorite rules for the Wings is to drink every time Lidstrom winds up for a shot, hesitates, looks like he might pass, and shoots anyway. Also, there was definitely an identical thread to this from about a year ago. Edited April 25, 2008 by datsyukonethree Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
