Draper's daughter & the Cup

Rate this topic

Recommended Posts

Hah I think there have been reports of players' babies in the past pissing in the cup, so its definitely familiar with the role.

edit: at least now I won't be as pissed if we lose the cup next year, knowing the assholes that overthrew us are drinking from a cup that Draper's kid crapped in.

actually at one point, I believe the entire New York Rangers all joined together to piss in the cup. This was a long time ago but I read it on some cup trivia website. But, eh, who wouldn't drink from the cup.

I was never one of those people who "lived and died" for Darren McCarty. He was let go because of the salary cap and I never moaned or groaned about it. Nevertheless, I'm really glad that he was able to start straightening out his life, and to come back to the Wings. Some day, he'll retire as a Red Wing and I'm sure that will please him

On the night of the Stanley Cup victory I'm a little sorry that some of the Wings didn't turn down the champagne and ask for the Gatoraide which McCarty was drinking. They'd won the cup, big frigging deal with drinking champagne from the Cup!

At one point they did put Gatorade in the Cup, didn't they?

Why does no one care about this? This is a ******* travesty! You can't throw the Cup into a swimming pool but you can use it as a toilet or a baby bathtub? That makes no sense, f*** you NHL, I certainly don't want the Cup now if I ever did...

The more I hear about the Cup, the less I think of it as something to be revered. It's more of a thing that you vent on for putting you through 98+ games of grueling hockey! They won it. If they want to give their kid a bath in the Cup or practice Judo on it, or like 55fan said in the case of Pronger, molest it with their mouth, well then I'm not going to complain about it.

Funny story.

The Stanley Cup has a history and lore that makes it unique amongst trophies. It is revered, yet it is commonplace as well. It has been used as a cereal bowl, geranium planter, baptismal font, and toilet. It has been jet skiing, atop mountains, and kicked almost across a river (emphasis on the "almost"). It has raised millions of dollars for charity. It has been in strip clubs and children's hospitals. It has been raised up by the strong and placed in the arms of the weak and dying.

No two players or fans see it in the same light, and each has their own dream of what they would do with their day with Stanley. The Cup is to each of us what we want it to be, and yet it is a unifying symbol of the rewards of patience, endurance and hard work.

It is the essence of a dream.

I am NOT arguing with you, but Mac is a recovering drunk. And I will just share with you one thing: For me personally? It is the WORST WORST WORST thing you can do to avoid YOUR drinking around me. I will watch your drink while you go pee, I will buy your next one, I will leave the house and buy you a case of beer with my own money and keep it in my fridge until you're done..........but PLEASE DO NOT act differently around me. That is the worst worst thing. For me. Especially a 100 year-old tradition?

But who knows, everybody is different. I'm a headcase. You may be right.

Anyways - back to the Crap Cup thing! Good girl! Her parts work!
