How 'bout those Blackhawks?



Yeah, I'm not really a sports fan. But I did happen to notice that the Blackhawks are playing the Flyers for the Stanley cup.

Yeah, baby.

I'm having a difficult time at work.

I am a native Pennsylvanian, however, I was raised in the Chicago suburbs, and formed my sports team allegiances there. I loves my 'hawks. May risk wearing jersey to work if they take home Lord Stanley's Cup. I think I might have a car flag in the trunk, but I don't want to get my tires slashed.

That was some amazing goaltending last night.

When I came in today I was talking to the ambulance crew chief. "Whatcha doin', wolf?"

"Trying hard not to gloat, Ant."

"Gloat about what?"

I then pointed to a newspaper front page of the Flyers.

"Oh," he said.

End of conversation. Probably until the Cup games are over.

Problem is, I won't be able to watch the next two games, since for whatever stupid reason they aren't on broadcast TV. How dumb is that?? Supposedly they're trying to increase viewership for hockey, so the best way do that is to run the games on an obscure cable station? Yeah, ok, sure.

Not a big Hockey fan here either, but the Flyers just won in OT 4-3. So I suppose I should say.....In your face, Pete!

Actually, it was another GREAT hockey game. Thats three in the Stanley cup! The final games in any sport aren't always this way. Its been most enjoyable to watch. The speed of the hawks and the resilience of the Flyers has made for a very good battle. The hitting still continues - man there were some shots away from the puck last night

For the most part, not as good a game a the first three, but buy did the B-hawks make it interesting late. Now its a race to two!!!!
