Nope, its totally absurd.

believe me I am glad one of the pens/Rangers were guaranteed to be out in the first round and will be happy to see Chicago and LA gone (Go Blues) but no one will convince me that "rivalries" are more important than seeing the better teams further in the rounds. having Chicago/St Louis and Pens/Rangers play in the first round is stupid. and if St Louis holds on to win and Dallas holds on you have 1 vs 2 and 6 play either 4 or 7.

'Clown' is much too nice, especially from someone with your colorful way with words.

EDIT - Let's Go Blues!

i cant even imagine what its like to be in that arena knowing you have 3 (frank)ing cups in your back pocket

just to be able to be at a big game without even a whisp of fatalism or that nervous undercurrent that always exists at the wells fargo is beyond my comprehension

it would just feel so (frank)ing weird and different i cant even fathom it

I'd love to see a coach smack Pierre in one of those bench interviews.

THREE CUPS

seriously cant even imagine

it's an interesting point. i'm sure it's how red sox fans felt forever. and rightfully so. when they finally win, and they will win, that will go away.

i remember being at game 5 vs nj in 2004 when it was tied late in the 3rd and feeling so nauseous. even though they were up 3-1.

If Flyers won three cups in the next decade, fans would still female dog about the "eliteness" of our players and demand we sign what's-his-name and trade so-and-so. You know this to be true.

You and I can skip and sing show tunes though.

if you believe, like you say you do, then imagine it.
