New York fans are some of the biggest cry babies I've ever had the pleasure of hearing. I work in NYC. My office is actually above the garden. I loathe this place and the sports fans here. I want this series victory more than anything.

Personally I think the series has been called poorly in both teams favors. By just looking at the numbers it seems the be being called in the rangers favor. Rangers have 28 pp's to the flyers 19. That's almost 50% more. Pretty staggering. There's been plenty of crap to call to even up.

The flyers are for the most part pretty undisciplined. I expected going into the series that the flyers would yield about .5-1 more pp opportunity per game. Not what we have seen so far.

I hate New York fans too. They have a sense of entitlement because their baseball team has won 1/4 of the World Series ever played.

Also, because SportsCenter is like a local news program for them.

stole the words right from me.

They got Dorsett for his embellishment.. just not on the original penalty.

The one where he collided with Mason was a tough embellishment call. He did get hit pretty hard, but he definitely helped himself make contact. Was it 2 minutes for embellishment worthy? I dont think so, but they probably viewed the non-existent high stick and got him for that.

Live I didn't think it was embellishment at all, just a dumb play by Hartnell. If you look at the replay, it clearly was. Plus he used it as an excuse to take out Mason.

I think this sums up Yankees fans nicely.

I can't stand it. Most of my good friends are ranger fans and I haven't been able to talk to them about hockey since this series started. Brb everyone on the flyers are scumbags, chitty calls by refs.

I got a text last night before the game saying how much their hate for the flyers has grown. Only thing that has kept them from raging has been that Giroux and Simmonds have sucked this series.

Or it could intensify it, especially if it was made in Thailand.

Ek's "One Game More!" blog title immediately got me singing "One Day More" from Les Miz. Wonder if he was thinking something along these lines.

Yep, My mom was a HUGE history buff and had a fine ear for music. So I was introduced to show tunes at an early age. I had read Les Miz by 13. Turns out I have a lovely singing voice. I sang a ton in high school and a bit with my friend's band afterwards but life has so many cool things to do that it fell into the background. But I do adore a good show...
But why do YOU know them?

I have to agree that diving is out of control in soccer. I will admit though that cleats friggin HURT when you get stomped on or raked with them. Going down easy is often the best way to protect yourself. The grabbing various body parts and screaming - followed by popping right back into play is what disgusts me.
