| Super Bowl? Ray Lewis retiring a champ and Flacco the MVP? Grats to the Ravens and all, but... HOW BOUT THEM LAKERSSS!?!? |
| I didn't know who was in the Superbowl let alone watch it, but when I was younger I was huge Browns fan and hated the Ravens. |
| what a fuckin game!! the super bowl that is...i was rooting for the niners, but i wasn't hating on the ravens (except Ray "Gift directly from God's bosom, so it's impossible for me to be a murderer" Lewis), i'm just glad that it was such an awesome game, but it would have been better if the niners got that last TD. btw LOVED the power outage!!! i was cracking up!! serves the NFL right for wanting to control every fucking little tiny thing about this event. i love the image of all those NFL muckity mucks going apeshit while their event spirals out of control!! :D)))) and then...my Caps...ugh of all the teams to get their asses handed to them by...and of all the people to give up a hattie to...i no longer have hate or dislike for Crosby or Malkin...just awe...but eff Kunitz, he'd be a borderline 3rd liner on most teams...anyways, they better get back on track tonight =\ and btw...worst Super Bowl commercial year yet...they just get worse and worse...serious suck overall, with a few mildly amusing ones that i can't even remember...oh how i miss Terry Tate. |
 |
| btw...idk how many people noticed...but the (*cough* incredibly corrupt *cough*) IOC dropped fucking wrestling for 2020?? really? it's only one of the original (as in fucking ANCIENT...not even 1896 old...fuckin ZEUS old!!) sports in the Olympics..one of the few things that linked the Games to it's past...and now it's one step closer to being the joke that it's been turning towards...i won't single out individual sports that deserved to be dropped first...i'm sure you all can come up with a handful without much trouble. just a fucking ridiculous shame =\ |
|
| Yeah their excuses to do it were pretty lame as there are other sports that could have been dropped that were not as popular or had as much tradition but corruption is corruption |
| well my Caps are FINALLY on a bit of a roll...and tbh, i'm feeling optimistic...the Oates system, if it is anything like what i watched last night, is fantastic if they can execute it. i'm hoping that it's just taken them this long to understand it, and this is closer to the Caps I'll see for the rest of the year. and yeah, as far as the wrestling, i'm still hoping against hope that they reconsider this ridiculous decision...i think they have another meeting in like May or sth to decide for certain...let's hope... |
|
| Alex Smith is getting traded to Kansas City I really hope they somehow beat the niners in the playoffs next season of all seasons. He was playing so well then they feel an unproven QB deserves more of a chance. That shit was cold-blooded. |
| it wasn't cold-blooded. i have been waiting for this for a while. he was with the niners for 7 years and did NOTHING!!! the only reason the niners went to the playoffs last year (when they lost against the giants) was because of Gore not Smith's passing. he totally sucks!! Good riddance |
 |
| His stats say otherwise for the 2012 season a 104.1 rating isn't to be trifled with. He was playing very well when they benched him. On a side note it seems people are trying to get wrestling back into the Olympics hopefully they succeed. |

On a side note it seems people are trying to get wrestling back into the Olympics hopefully they succeed. i agree that it was a bit cold to bench Smith, but it's hard to argue with the results...they should have won that damn game too...ooooh so close. i'll root for him in KC though, he handled a shitty situation really well. and i'm praying that the IOC comes to their senses (or pay back the bribes, whichever it happens to be) and brings back wrestling...it would cement the Olympics status in my mind as being incredibly less legitimate. |
|
| Yeah here is a fairly interesting video on Alex. |
| bill how mad are you about the caps dealing forsberg? |
bbmello said: bill how mad are you about the caps dealing forsberg? honestly, with the caps history of "can't miss" prospects it's hard to be too upset. i kinda liked kuznetsov a little more anyways tbh, and we are getting a pretty underrated player in erat. he's better offensively than his numbers (nashville, where offense goes to die) and you know he'll be defensively responsibly. he reminds me of jere lehtinen who was one of my favorite players, and possibly with more offensive upside than him seeing as he's spent his whole career in Trotz's trap. idk maybe i'm just convincing myself to like it, but the last few years the caps haven't been willing to part with any value, and really haven't gotten much value in return either as it seemed to turn out. maybe this will be different...i'm just glad they're playing better now :)) |
|
| dat ovie :O |
bbmello said: dat ovie :O hell yeah!!! rumors of his demise have been apparently greatly exaggerated!! :DDD btw, pretty awesome you guys get a Calder nominee in his rookie year still for a guy who wasn't even playing for you guys. also great job keeping your head above water with all the injuries they've had...maybe Anderson being back will help you move up in the standings. |
|
| 4 losses in a row feels bad man... tough times are ahead just have to keep the faith tbh though SE is a joke lol, we have more points than you but are 6th |
| @bb yeah no lie about the SE...it'll be nice to have the (almost) Patrick back next year, but i'll miss beating up on FLA, WIN/ATL and the like year after year. well Alfredsson and Spezza are getting older, sure (and hurt) but with Karlson and the new kid...and your young goalie, you have some nice young pieces for years to come there it seems like |
|
| yeah alfie is definitely getting up there, i can't see him playing more than another season as far as spezza, he still has at least a solid 5-6 years in him so not too worried about that, but yeah we have some really promising young talent our new line of silf, zibby and conacher has been on fire. silf looks so calm with the puck its unreal, hard to tell he is just a rookie lol |
| OMG what a great win for the CAPS last night to beat the Habs...and nerveracking as hell...that game had playoff atmosphere, and i could have sworn they were gonna score in that last rally :O |
|
| I can only hope it's 2009 all over again for the Lakers and the Penguins... |
StyleF1re said: I can only hope it's 2009 all over again for the Penguins... please God no....anyone but....even the (gulp) Bruins...=\ |
|
| haha I knew that someone was going to say something! Man. I must be the devil to you guys. The Bruins are like my second favorite team, since they will always remind me of my dorm roommate (from Massachusetts/hardcore Bruins fan) and the good old university days. Maybe I'll get into hockey one of these days. I don't understand why people here hate/dislike it. Very entertaining stuff. It's pretty hard to follow though when the other sports are more "relevant" around here. |
| well that's understandable considering the only ice there is in your freezer...but still it's the best sport IMHO...fast, free flowing...it has everything, physicality, aesthetic beauty, and BY FAR the best playoffs in sports. nothing comes close to OT in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. NOTHING |
|
| haha, you know? That could be a reason why people here in Hawaii refer to a fridge as an "icebox." As for me, I'm too technical to use such a term. It's a "refrigerator" or a "freezer" for goodness' sake. Good point too. Hard to argue against that "sudden death" atmosphere. And do I even have to mention Game 7 OT? But yeah, I love when the horns sound off on home team scores. Not to mention the physicality (like you said) and the fights, especially those between rival teams. |
| had a hockey tournament this weekend, lost in the finals 2-1, such a close game :( it was at the sens practice facility and i saw erik karlsson practicing so it was pretty damn cool |
| that's too bad about losing bb, but pretty awesome about getting to see karlsson...i heard he might try to make it back for the playoffs, how'd he look? btw are their practices usually open? here you can always watch the Capitals practice at Kettler...and then go shopping!! :P http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kettler_Capitals_Iceplex |
|
| congrats on the game last night bb...i guess =\ |
|
| i hope we face you in the first round, easiest win of life :D oh and yeah some practices are open, hard to find out which ones though it's kind of luck of the draw also yeah swedey gonzales should be back for the playoffs, i hope they aren't rushing him though just need some news on spezza now all the pieces are falling into place! |
bbmello said: i hope we face you in the first round, easiest win of life :D i wouldn't be so sure of that!! honestly i was thinking vice versa a lil bit...one reg season win does not a playoff series make. honestly, i'm usually a pessimist, esp with the Caps, but i wouldn't want to be another team facing them in a series this year. there's...idk, sth about them. dont forget they won 8 in a row (against some good teams too, enough of that SE argument) before that. they weren't going to win 16 in a row or anything. had to lose sometime. anyways, not to be defensive or anything...just saying :P |
|
| i'm just ribbing ya :p it'll be a great series for sure but one reason i feel like we can take you on is the lack of depth your team has, if we can shut down your top 6 we can grind out wins |
bbmello said: if we can shut down your top 6 we can grind out wins at least we have a top 6 ;) jk too :P...but the biggest thing that would scare me about you guys would be if Anderson gets hot. and don't sleep on our grinders, esp if Laich gets back and going...and not to mention Ward |
|
| pew pew, shots fired! ooooooh i really hope we match up in the first round :) we should make a bet or something if that happens! and yeah andy is a huge limiting factor for our success in the playoffs, but lehner is more than capable and he's proven himself to be a fighter even if andy isn't on his best, we have the option of rolling lehner |
that would be awesome though for real, and i'm totally down for a bet. hopefully the seedings shake out that way...or perhaps round 2???? :D |
|
| had a rough time at the bank last night god i fucking hate leafs fans, it's embarassing how we let them take over our barn whenever they come to town |
| i'm starting to wish we'd play Montreal in the first round!! ofc, i don't expect them to stay this bad, but it's been nice to get them twice in this free fall they're in. wtf is up with Price??? O.O @bb is it that the Leafs fans travel so well, or do you have a ton of them already there in Ottawa? here in D.C. we have people from all over the place (esp from Shittsburgh Pittsburgh {jk} ) so we have invasions here all the time for all our teams, esp from the aforementioned Pitt, Philly, and NYC. |
|
| @Bill Woah, woah, woahhh! We dissin' Pittsburgh here? I know you love your team, but c'mon man! lmao I'll leave this thread for you two to torch. Just going to watch the NBA and NHL playoffs passively. Honestly could care less who wins, though it would be a lot sweeter if my favorites from either take it. #AGoodYearForSports #DoItForKobe #OKCRedemption #ReturnOfCrosby #Pens2013 #BostonStrong |
| @style hahaha i said "jk"! :P really the most annoying thing is they jock their city so much and talk sooo much shit (generally that is, not everyone certainly) and it's like "oh why don't you live there anymore? ohhhh that's right because it's run down and there's no work up there"...but really all trash talk is all in good fun. i watch the NBA passively as well...esp round one...is there a more useless first round than the NBA? seriously, if you're like..idk a Hawks fan or something, you know year after year you'll have a decent regular season, probably beat some crappy team in the 1st, and then get killed by a REAL contender. like srsly if you're a fan of any team but the Heat, Thunder, Spurs, Lakers (well, most years :P) and maybe a couple more, you know you have NO CHANCE WHATSOEVER. even the Knicks, who are the 2 seed in the East, they're already done. maybe i'll be proven wrong, but i just don't see it. anyways rant over :P |
|
| Yep. Poor Rockets and Bucks. They really are getting the short end of things. haha I love talking trash too. Think I might have to unload some more hashtags and other junks later on down the line. I'm somewhat tempted to make a Twitter account atm, but I know better than to act on emotional highs. Mainstream social media can't possibly do me any good. |
| yeah ottawa is filled with habs and leafs fans, mainly because the modern sens have only been around for like 20 years now it should start balancing out after a few generations though, sens fans just need to have lots of sens babies and loads of them make the trip too i'm sure, they rarely get to see some good hockey at an affordable price |
| well bill, looks like we both have an interest in seeing the jets lose if they knock out the sens, they knock out the caps too your caps better get the job done tomorrow or im holding you personally responsible i am so fucking frustrated with how this season is going down, god damnit |
| yeah, stupid jets with their stupid non-geographically making sense division...anyways, if my caps don't get the job done tonight, i'll be pretty upset...and i won't really even be able to watch it, i have a paper to do, but my superstition tells me thats a good sign as the last 5 games i've missed the caps have won (knock on wood) |
|
| good game caps, had me holding my breath until ovie put the dagger in the jets rags lose sucks that isles got the point but i guess i cant ask for everything the hockey gods are answering my prayers |
| Ok so i couldnt help myself and ended up watching most of it :P Go Caps!!!!! Huzzah!!!!! Oh yeah and nice they could help out your sens in the process too ;) Anyways back to my writing now :P |
|
| had to post this here... GMGM when the Jets tied it up GMGM when Ovie sealed the deal with the empty net GMGM when he hears the haters obv that first one isn't really from last night, but i thought it was appropriate ;) |
|
| haha You might just have to get those gifs ready for Ash if his team fails to make the postseason. Looks like this thread will be dead too if that happens, so let's hope for the best! |
| so bb, big game tonight eh? :P i'm rather curious how this will play out as the caps have nothing of consequence, other than momentum, to play for while the sens can clinch a spot and potentially improving their seeding. and tbh, no offense, as the standings are now, the caps are set to go against the isles in round 1...and i would rather see your sens. out of the potential caps round 1 oppenents, i think the isles scare me the most. they ALWAYS play the caps tough, and going way back to the last few decades, we haven't had very good experiences in the playoffs against them. that being said, the caps can beat any of them....and any of them can beat the caps, so i'll just wait and see. :P |
|
| anyone watching nba playoffs, nfl draft, or ufc? |
 |
| ty bill and ty caps playoff spot secured but most of all id like to thank mike ribeiro for being an undisciplined douche i really hope we meet up in the first round bill, tonights game had a lot of intensity to it near the end |
bbmelloApr 25, 2013 7:04 PM
| Ohhh, nice! Should be fun watching you two go at it some more. Just gonna keep tabs on PIT, but I could care less who takes the Cup... @shinigami79 Just NBA somewhat. It's going to suck if the Lakers get eliminated because I have Sat, Mon, and Wed off, but they play on all of the other days. I watched maybe two quarters of the one game I could catch (Game 2). Other than that, I'm lazy and usually wait until the 3rd or 4th quarter to tune in. |
