Guess it makes sense that you're also a 'Beaker.

I'm pretty sure I hate you.

Why bother hating Leaf fans? They don't win anything anyway.

Screw that diving Swede. Biggest, most talented MFer on the ice for a decade and you could knock him over with a feather.

It's going to be 4-0 pretty quick.

I've never met the right one, but I'm starting to get a bad feeling about him already...

By that logic I'd give the Cubs fans a pass as well.

And there's nobody more fun to hate than your average Cubs fan. Their combination of drunkenness, arrogance, and complete delusion just makes them a perfect storm of douchebag.

P.S. Time to start rooting for the Fins; if Sweden wins by 6, US gets the 2 seed.

If only the Leafs were actually good, eh. There isn't much worse than being a Toronto sports fan.

Heh...I just hope they don't go TOO crazy. If they win by 6 points, they take over the #1 seed.

BTW, Drew - is that Dany Heatley's car in your avatar?

Oh wait, Dany drives Italian, doesn't he?

Brodeur has not played well and although he is considered one of the best puck-handling goalies of all time he made a couple of critical mistakes. I don't see them going with Luongo and winning gold. Just my opinion ; I could be wrong. Watch the canucks in the playoffs this year. They won't make it past round 2 and he'll be a big part of that.

I don't see them winning gold no matter who they choose. But I suspect they'll pick Luongo. Brodeur was shaky...real shaky.

Note to NBC: Please send interviewers that actually know things about hockey to interview hockey players.

In an interview with Jagr -- "What do you have to tell your young guys, especially Petr Cajanek, about settling down..."

Cajanek is 34 years old. He sucks at hockey. He is not young and no amount of mentoring from Jaromir Jagr will make him any good. Please do some homework before you interview a player next time, especially if you intend to refer to a particular player.

And with a 3-0 win over Finland, the Swedes just made sure USA gets the #1 seed in the medal rounds.

It looked for a minute like Finland may just get beat badly enough for Sweden to grab that #1 slot from us, but they tightened up at the end.

What a great draw for the US. The winner of Switzerland/Belarus in round 1, then the winner of Czech Rep/Finland in round 2 and they're playing for the gold.

Canada, meanwhile, would have to beat Germany, Russa and Sweden to get to the gold medal game.

That loss was huge for Canada.

DJ's left nut · 02-22-2010, 01:49 AM

Watching the end of the USA/Canada game, the PP for Canada was a good one but the call was on the wrong player.

Eric Johnson didn't trip anyone. Chris Drury, OTOH, couldn't have had a more egregious penatly had he pulled out a glock and shot a guy. He hooked Marleau clear as day. From behind him, Drury snagged Marleau's left skate and raised it. Drury even lost his stick because he couldn't free it from Marleau's skate as he went down.

It was pretty blatant.

Sorry, but, please, Peter the great was a pleasure to watch and a large reason I developed an interest in the sport. He missed a year after his spleen was removed, and yes, his laundry list of nagging injuries is long, but the guy was a constant draw and an intriguing player.

I keep seeing that sentiment here. And I keep responding that any activity involving chicks with hot bodies in tight bodysuits skiing towards me crotch-first with one leg raised can't be all bad.

Now, if you want to specify MEN'S ice dancing, maybe... Although I'm still on the fence as to which side Johnny Weir falls on...
