  1. Montreal unable to find the net again today. 3-1 Flyers.
  2. Hindsight and all, but they should have sent Axford back out there and give him a chance. Great to hear, "conceding the run".
  3. Hawks win! 3-0 for the series. One win away from the Stanley Cup Finals.
  4. Bucky, I hated pitching behind nets when I threw BP. They screwed up my mechanics (always short armed it) every time to the point that I would basically move the net to a point where it did me no good. Guess those nets served a purpose after all. The Brewer game could not have helped the pain at all unless you were icing in a beer bucket.
  5. Joe, I recall that you're not from Madison, but I read today that the city is having an electronics drop off at the Alliant Center in June, free of charge. They did this last year and it was wildly successful. Sure beats paying for a sticker and having the city swing by on trash day to pick it up.
  6. Blackhawks continue to win on the road and Montreal can't find the net for the second straight game. Now we'll see if Chicago can show up on home ice.
  7. With every passing game, he alleviates my fears. Great win for the Blackhawks today. Can't help but wonder if the penalties (Chicago 5, SJ 0) will tilt towards Chicago in Game 2.
  8. What an effort by the Flyers and now they have the home ice. Bet they never saw that coming. To fall behind 3-0 on the road (in the first 15 minutes) in game 7 could have been real demoralizing. Rallying for the win is impressive.
  9. I don't know or care at all about horse racing and I just crossed the infield at the Kentucky Derby off the list. But, does a frat party on the infield qualify as a top 100 experience (don't get me wrong, I'd be down.)? You said it yourself that you don't know/care about horse racing. Being there for the race is one thing but I'm guessing many of those people were indifferent/beyond incoherent by post time so that really only carries a little weight as far as "attending" the actual event goes. Regarding the Indy 500, etc., I would have to be on the party scene (is there such a thing as an infield for car racing?) for those events because beyond a crash, racing is beyond meaningless to me.
  10. While I share these sentiments, I argue with myself about what's good for the future of the game. Personally, I don't like Crosby, but he's the new face of the game and having him out hurts the NHL...and as a huge fan, I am all for any prosperity the league can experience. First and foremost, I want hockey to be as popular as possible.
  11. I've been concerned about Niemi since he became starter and for whatever reason, he still scares me, but he's the one who carry them to the Finals. I'm with you on Montreal. Should be some fun games tonight.
  12. That's the tough thing about making a list like this, everyone has different ideas on what should be there. The Indy 500 (or any car race) wouldn't make my top 1000 and that's what makes these non-personal lists difficult.
  13. What a shame that the Red Wings are gone. (/blue) The future looks great with Howard in net, but for now...bye.
  14. As a Blackhawks fan, I should be rooting against SJ, but Detroit=Cubs in my eyes, so I'll take on the Sharks if it means buh-bye to the Wings.
  15. When I woke up this morning at 6:30, I heard the cooing of a morning dove, the singing of a song bird and the buzzing of my neighbor's lawnmower. Isn't there some unwritten rule about mowing that early? It didn't bother me, but it just seems a tad early.
  16. Does Potawatomi offer OTB all the time or just for special events? I would think they'd be better prepared if this is something they offer on a regular basis. Dairyland was great for OTB with the entire second level devoted to the ponies.
  17. I really thought they were gonna score on those 3 consecutive PPs in the third. They were all over the offensive zone, just seemed like a matter of time. Is their offense based on Weber driving slap shots and hoping for rebounds? There wasn't much of an interior passing/skating game, especially on those PPs. I only got to see parts of every game, so I could be wrong.
  18. I have a deep rooted hatred of the Cubs. Beyond that, I'm fine with Chicago teams (probably helps that I don't like the Packers). I became a Blackhawks fan as a youngster while living in Milwaukee. I've always listened to sports on the radio when I went to bed and the Blackhawks filled the void on nights when there were no Bucks games. I had really hoped Milwaukee would get an NHL team and when that day never came, I stuck with my childhood team. Love that list posted above, especially Pat Foley, what a great hockey announcer.
  19. Yep, the NHL re-seeds.
  20. I'm sure the cost has gone up some, but I had a personalized bat made a few years ago and I think it cost me about $40.
  21. He's not ordering these bats to take batting practice, Al. Is your wedding guest book prominently displayed in your home? If it is, I apologize, but I'm guessing most couples have theirs in a box or cabinet somewhere. These bats will be displayed, look great and remind them of the memories of their wedding day. Great idea!
  22. See, I think I've got enough manpower and all it would cost me is a one-night bar tab, but I just don't want to deal with the trucking side of things.
  23. The #6 and 7 seeds are doing quite well to date in the first round: #6's Boston and LA are both up 2-1 and playing game 4 at home tonight #7's Nashville (up 2-1) and Philly (up 3-1) both lead their series'.
  24. I did take advantage of this offer last year and am looking forward to using it again this year. Thanks again to Jamie and Jake.
