  1. I agree....if anyone deserved their head shoved into the glass it was Walker...that guy was a real piece of work in the Bruins series.
  2. Yep, looks like the Pens got the Canes pretty much wrapped up. They looked really good tonite. Looks like Gonchar must have been taking notes from Kronwall judging by the way he plowed Walkers head into the glass....:eek: Sorry, I couldnt resist:D:D:cool:
  3. I know what you mean by dirty play....kinda like when Gary Roberts sucker punched Johan Franzen last year????? Or Matt Cooke's intentional knee to knee hit on Erik Cole, or Kunitz cross checking a goalie (varlamov) in the throat?? Kronwall is a big hitter, sometimes bigger than he needs to be maybe. But I dont think he is out to take guys out of the game. He is one of the few open ice checkers (who are good at it). Hits in the open tend to be more violent then ones that are absorbed by the glass. Pens fans used to love play like that....Ulf Sammuelson and Darius Kasparaitus were the kings of big, questionable hits for a while. Just my opinion....
  4. Man if the Wings could have pulled off a win tonite, I think it would have taken the wind right out of Chicago's sails for sure. The Hawks gave up a 3 goal lead and it went into OT. Hawks won it in OT:mad:. If you guys didnt watch the game, you gotta see the hit that Kronwall put on Havlat....he was out cold for a bit!! He never came back in...hopefully he will brush the snow off his skirt and play on sunday:D:D. I was kinda upset that they gave Kronwall a 5min major and a Game Misconduct penalty for the hit. It looked clean and legal to me!! Not his fault Havlat was skating with his head down....
  5. :eek: Go Wings!! Its in my blood to never, ever, under any circumstances cheer for a team from Illinois. (me being from Wisconsin and all). Even if my favorite team wasnt playing them, I would have to insist on the Hawks losing:p
  6. Wow that's pretty awesome!
  7. I agree...I hope it doesnt happen of course, but I would not be surprised at all if something did happen. Still kinda neat though......not something you would find me doing however:eek:
  8. Alrite!! 6-3 Detroit...thats much better! Man that Hossa, Franzen, Fillpula line was dominant tonite!
  9. Time for the Wings to do some Duck Hunting tonite!!!!! Hopefully with better results than lately:eek:
  10. Thats the same size as the guys on tv catch.....your just not holding it close enough to the camera.....dont you know the camera adds five pounds to fish too:D:D:p

    You ever?

    I love naps!!:D
  12. Brett has donated $1.5 million to kids through the Brett Favre Fourward Foundation. He has held annual Celebrity Softball Games, and other activities to raise money for charities. He has donated to the Warhawk Wheelchair Athletes, and after Hurricane Katrina, Brett used his own home as a refuge for peoples whos home were destroyed. ....This guy does sound like a real jerk:rolleyes: ( im sure there is more but, this is what I found after about 5 min of looking) Funny how soon everyone forgets all the good things folks do as soon as a chance to bash them arises.
  13. I was thinking the same thing, but I didnt want to open that can of worms:D:p

    weather

    Been waiting on them crappies around here too..seems we can never get a few nice sunny days in a row though to really heat up that water. Caught about 15 of them today out in the deeper water, but they were small.....none of the delicious 10-12 inchers:D
  15. I hate attributing sloppy play to injuries, but I think the fact that Rafalski, Draper and Lilja arent playing is starting to take its toll. As great as Chelios once was, he just cant keep it up with the younguns anymore. Ericson is playing good but man Id love to see those three back out there!! Also I dont know why but it seems the Wings cant get pucks to the net except for wild slappers from defensmen. I dont know whats up with the Pens...that was a wild game the other nite though...hat tricks and all.
  16. Also just heard that the Coyotes just filed chapter 11 bankruptcy and may be bought out and moved to Ontario...interesting.
  17. Man these hockey refs are getting as bad as the NFL ones!!!!!! They pretty much gave the game to the Ducks in the last minute. !! They at least stopped an overtime for sure.....stupid premature whistle blowing...open your dang eyes!! There, im done venting....
  18. Wow, I have no clue what its mixed with. Cool looking critter though thats for sure.
  19. Im not defending the guy...Im just saying " who cares". So what if he has a big ego, lots of pro players do. Like I said, if it was just about anybody but Brett, none of this would be of any discussion. And yeah he should have stayed retired based on his perfomance last year. I personally think the Packers offering to pay him 20mil. NOT to play is a pretty good slap in the face. Sure, it may have been time for the Packers to put Rodgers in as a starter, but remember #4 took them to the NFC champ game the year before. I know if it were me, I may be a bit offended that if I was a big impact on the teams success 3 months ago and now you want me gone. Im not the 'one in every crowd' who thinks that Favre can do no wrong....I agree that he has a big ego, and may be doing all this just ' stick it to' GB. And thats ok....hes not hurting my feelings:cool: And while he was a Packer, I wasnt a Favre fan cuz he was a ' nice guy' I was a fan cuz he threw TD's and won football games!! And all these 'fans that loved him all those years', if you are so emotionally attached to a football player, that it bothers you when he plays for another team.....you belong in the looney bin as far as Im concerned.:D Those people are 'Favre fans' not Packer fans. I understand that pro athletes are supposed to be ' role models' and all this and that...but again, compared to some other athletes he looks like Mother Theresa:cool:
  20. I personally dont have it...I dont think (fingers crossed). A friend of mine had it many years back, at least the doctors think he did:rolleyes:. Well they treated him for it and the symptoms went away, so it may have been. Sorry to hear of your situation, stay strong and beat it bro!! I HIGHLY recommend that everyone use this during tick season, not just necessarily while hunting either. It does stink so it may not be deer friendly but for sure where it while out chasing turkeys!! http://www.gemplers.com/product/PTR1/REPEL-Permanone-Tick-Repellent This stuff works great. Ticks will still crawl onto you, but not nearly as many, and they REALLY dont like this stuff and usually get off of you. I would be cautious about using it on childrens clothes(??) read the directions
  21. Well, to me it doesnt really matter who he plays for next or if he doesnt ever throw a football on the pro field again. It was great to watch him in the green and gold back in his prime, that will never change in my mind. No matter what he does, you cant argue that he was one of the best QB's. If this was any other player, it would be no big deal. Players go and play for their former teams rivals all the time. Darren Sharper, Ryan Longwell both went to the vikes, no big uproar there. And Longwell was (and may still be) the Packers leading scorer. Its obvious the guy loves to play football, whats so wrong with that?? Id say compared to alot of other players shooting up nightclubs, or themselves in nightclubs, or beating their wives, or selling drugs, Favre going and playing for a rival aint all that bad. And if doing it because of a grudge against GB..so what. It seems he was run out of town, so maybe he has a good reason to hold a grudge. We (GB) have a new quarterback that has some great potential, so what ever Brett does should be of no concern (other than ON the field) to GB or its fans. And as far as him and his agent playing ' contract games', find one well known player who doesnt.
  22. Took 3 OT's for the Wings to give up the game winner against the Ducks today...sure was a good game though.

    Lost my job

    That sucks...I know, I lost mine back in Jan. Good luck, hope everything works out!!
  24. I just put the tail and the beard (not this year cuz he didnt have one lol) in one of those wooden plaques. My dad and I have been experimenting with making our own. I think a full mount of a strutting tom or one gobbling or a both would be cool. I just dont have the money or the place to put one just yet.
  25. Wings over the Ducks by one in the last minute!!!! Boy did Detroit look out of shape after that break they had.... Yeah Im watching todays game off and on between chores..still 2-2 early in the 3rd.
