Currently the NHL playoff are going on and I watch it quite religiously. Unfortunately when you are a Toronto Maple Leafs fan you almost always have to chose a team to cheer for, because the Leafs never make it to playoffs. So, for a few years now I have been cheering for the Penguins. Sidney Crosby grew up in my home town so I figure I can at least support the guy who put Cole Harbour Nova Scotia on the map. Unfortunately, just recently the Penguins got beat out. So, now the question remains. Who to cheer for?
Its a big dilemma as I am not a fan of the Habs, but they are the only Canadian team left. I had decided I would cheer for Boston, but somehow they lost a 3-0 series by losing game 7 when they had a 3-0 lead. It was a disaster. So, in lieu of all this, I decided I will cheer for the Canadians. It appears that every team I cheer for is losing, will lose or has lost, so.....GO HABS!!!!! hahha now they too will lose!!
LEAFS FOREVER!!!!
Ok wait - you're cheering for the Habs now? Insane! They are so ridiculous - welcome to the dark side =)
ReplyDeleteIt's very entertaining to watch them somehow choke the life out of better teams. All while bumping into each other on the ice and taking diving penalties all over the place. We have nick names for some of the more interesting players:
Lapierre - "Yap-ierre" because he is always yapping at other players, running his mouth 24/7.
Cammalleri - "Calamari"
Pouliot = "Poulet"
Pyatt - "Pie Hat"
Funny how so many end up as food names, you can tell Jon was involved here =)
Hahah I was reading the names thinking about Jon. hahah
ReplyDeleteMy fav is Calamari!!
hahah
