Great! Now I'm Cheering For No One

Aaron Rome has been suspended for 4 games for his late hit on Nathan Horton. Warning, the video is disturbing (well to me anyway)

Scary huh? I love how this debate is still going on whether or not head shots should be banned, honestly what's the debate about? Head shots should be banned! Yes hockey is a physical game BUT the game has devolved into something more violent than it had previously been. What happens if Sidney Crosby never returns (prayers to Santa Maria!)? What if someone dies? or becomes a vegetable? Is that when the league will act? When something unthinkable happens? I don't understand human logic sometimes, if we know something has the potential to be harmful, we wait until that potential is realized and THEN we do something about it.

Whatever don't care about this final anymore. BRING ON WORLD CUP RUGBY!!!!!

We Have Our Stanley Cup Final

Its Boston vs Vancouver!

I really wanted Tampa to be in the final but apparently I never get what I want, so...

I'm cheering for Vancouver although I have a sneaking suspicion that Boston will take it. Did I jinx it? Oh well.

I apologize for not having much to say about this but in all honesty I don't care about this final because I have never really cared for either team. Yeah I'll watch, its the Stanley Cup final after all but my heart won't be crushed if one team loses nor will I be sitting in the edge of my sofa with happy tears in my eyes if one team wins.

I'm just very 'meh' about the whole thing...

YES I'M STILL BITTER THAT WASHINGTON WAS KICKED OUT SO EARLY!!!!!!!!

What is this Fuckery?

Last night Blackhawks vs Canucks. Playoff preview, right? Oh God, I hope not:



What the fuck?

Hitting the goalie in the head like that! Giving a wedgies! Pulling of hair! Ripping off your opponents equipment AND his underarmour!

WHAT THE HELL BOYS?????

It was just complete pandemonium! There weren't enough refs! Every time they'd try to break up one fight, 2 others would start, not only that but when the refs were between them USUALLY they'd stop and skate off to their benches but not this brawl, they were still throwing punches while the refs were between them AND the refs had to escort them back to the bench to make sure another fight wouldn't start.

What kind of shit is this?

...and I'm talking to you Chicago! This is not how you answer your opponents when you're down 4-0, this is not how you constructively express your frustrations. How about some goals, boys? 'cause this is how its going to be in the playoffs, and the Canucks just showed you that they've got skill and fierceness, what do you have? a bunch of immature whiny bitches?

Sorry that just doesn't cut it in the NHL playoffs.

Don't worry we won't compare you to the Penguins, whom you very much parallel (both young teams, Crosby/Malkin & Towes/Kane) because, the Pens were disciplined, the Pens were a cohesive unit, the Pens had Gary Roberts, and you? Well it seems that your youth and inexperience got the best of you...but we're not comparing

Looks like Van City's got the edge in this match-up. I mean, on home ice, an all out brawl AND a penalty shot and not a single goal? I suppose its not as close as I thought it was going to be...Oh Chigaco

DREAM SEQUENCE

Last night I had this dream where I was the newest member of the Vancouver Canucks (random much?) and it was the first game of the season. As I was walking up to the entrance of the arena I was met by Mike Richards (who, I guess, is on Vancouver, apparently) and Trevor Linden. Mike was holding Trevor the way you hold your grandpa when helping him up the stairs. I grabbed Trevor's other arm and Mike and I escorted him through all the journalists and photographers and fans. Mike told me that we were going to do a special presentation for Trevor even though the Canucks already did one at the end of last season.

Once inside Mike took Trevor down some hallway and I went to the dressing room. The first person I see is a half dressed Dany Heatley (hubba hubba!), he smiled at me like the way a guy smiles at you when he's most likely picturing you naked he's about to come ~*mack*~ you. I laughed and asked him "what" and he just laughed back at me. I went to my cubicle/stall thingy and started taking of my jacket; I turned around and right behind me was Marc-Andre Fleury . He was just sitting there, staring off into space. I walked over to him and took his hand and I whispered to him "I know Marc-Andre, I know!". He was pretty bummed out that he was one of the penguins that got traded, no one saw it coming, we all thought it would have been Ryan Malone but alas 'we' got Marc-Andre Fleury.
