Do you really want to find hell with JJ? He can show you what it's like.

How about just 2 reasons as in 2 cups in 4 years. Those are the only 2 I would need!

peccadilloes: A small sin... Had to look that up.

A urine sample for JJ? No, just some unbiased solid analysis. Business as usual.

For me it all starts with Rocky, he's #1 on the list.

I'd add that if it wasn't for the ability to DVR games Weideman would be a legend when all is said and done. The few times I do hear him his call is as good as it gets.

2. The best logo and colors in pro sports. Period.


Agree with most of your list...but this one is flat wrong. There are not only better in sports, but you don't even have the best one in hockey.

That actually got me thinking now that it can happen again, a Hawks vs. Wings final would be something I think a lot of people would go out of their way to watch and this is coming from a fan of neither team !

Go troll elsewhere you jealous little man ! You're just pissed the Leafs still suck. And while I love the rat. I'm glad he's playing for the leafs. his back will last about 3 weeks into the season and he's gonna break your heart.

Tell it to former leaf captain, George "Chief" Armstrong, who your team made a point to nickname and promote.

big difference between a real Indian tribe, Indian, and colorful (respectful) emblem and the racist buck toothed Indian iof the Washingtom football team, and it's name, right?

Children don't understand-they just make attempts to test.

nice try, little one.

Yeah...

I'm not going to follow the opinion of a fan who's team wears urine colored sweaters.

Actually, the Hawks were only indirectly named after a Sauk chief: when Col. McLaughlin (McLaughlin's Manor House Coffee) brought the team into the NHL, he named them after his WWI Blackhawk army division.

So maybe the logo should be some Private peeling potatoes.

Best uniforms in sports - INCLUDING the Indianhead:

Cardinals on the bat.

"Braves" on the tomahawk.

Dodger script.

Simple Yankee pinstripe.

Tigers' old style D.

Winged wheel.

Maple Leaf.

Canadians.

Simple diagonal Rangers on blue sweater.

St. Louis blue note.

Most of the post-expansion hockey uniforms are too complex.

I am not really a fan of blue and yellow but for some reason I have always liked the blues logo and jerseys! It is kind of weird that when we are young that actually makes up a large part of how we pick what team we will cheer for if you aren't going to cheer for the local team. I know ill take heat for this but I have always liked the devils simple NJ with horns and tail now im not going to argue that its better then any other logo but it is a logo I have always liked even though it is fairly simple.

im not saying the preds are it and the hawks logo is fine.... but its nowhere near the best in sports. not even in hockey. leafs, bruins and wings are better and im not a fan of any of them.
