i loved that building. my gramps and i spent some great nights there.

sharks/wings could easily be the matchup in the conference finals. those sharks are a gritty bunch.

They're talking about finally tearing down the Spectrum here in philly. Sad. Saw my first rock concert there. Too many sporting events to list. Place was magic.

that does suck. no more broad street bullies. bummer. i hate seeing the old buildings go away.

nah they are still on broad. The Wac is literally in the same parking lot as the spectrum. Phantoms play there. Hate to see them move to Trenton. Watching them win the calder during the lockout was a blast. You woulda thought the flyers won the cup again.

i did not know that. now i gotta worry about the broad street bullies again, dammit. i knew the phantoms played there, but didn't know they were moving. IHL hockey is fun to watch. i was TOTALLY bummed when the spiders bailed from here after only one season. season tickets were really cheap.

I would never, ever put myself in a position to potentially have to wear a Wings sweater. Ever. never, ever. Not ever. I played for a team named the Red Wings for 5 years and never wore a Wings jersey in a game. I had a plain red and plain white. I even got a few bench minor penalties for not wearing a team jersey. Never wore a wings jersey. never will. Ever. Never.


NEVER!

I'm not really sure how Duncan Keith made the All Star Squad. He's a good Dman and all...but come on now....

[motownjc]

dude, you're too fxxking funny.

i feel pretty much the same way about a maple leafs/avalanche/blackhawks sweaters.

i guess i underestimated the depth of your hatred. that's a pretty deep abyss, and dark, dark, dark, blacker than the blackest black times infinity.
