  1. We can try it again next year and try to get it going a bit earlier. Yeah sounds good.
  2. Should have mentioned, game is on NBCSN tomorrow night. I'd be surprised if they don't show the banner raising ceremony. I think NBC did last year before we throttled the Kings.
  3. That's funny. Whoever I played in the finals stacked his roster with five borderline SPs yesterday in an effort to pull out the win, but no luck. For much of the season I only checked it once every 7-10 days.
  4. A repeat Cup is extremely hard and I've already outlined the reasons I'm worried about a Cup hangover in the offseason thread, but I am not sure how a successful year for the defending champs with a fairly intact roster and a mostly young core could only be a conference finals appearance. A successful year for this team is a Stanley Cup championship. I'm trying to be realistic. Winning a cup takes a combination of a lot of factors, including a healthy dose of luck. The Detroit series is a great example of that. A funny bounce here or there makes all the difference. And yes that stuff can balance out and you can make your own luck, but the best team doesn't always win. Given that, I think it's hard to ever be too upset when your team makes the final four. Especially since they just won it.
  5. We're gonna have to shut this down unless we get a last-minute influx of teams.
  6. Let's get this going. Hawks raise the banner tomorrow night, October 1, against the Caps. For those who could use a refresher, realignment is on. Blue Jackets and Wings, have fun out east. Our new division, which is there for the taking, includes Minnesota, Dallas, Nashville, St. Louis, Colorado and Winnipeg. Out of division, we play every other team home and away. Love this. Gone at Bolland (Toronto), Stalberg (Nashville, but hurt for awhile), Emery (Philly, again) and Frolik (Winnipeg). In are Khabi and some of the young guys getting a shot: Ben Smith, Jimmy Hayes and Nordstrom, who will apparently replace Frolik in the PK role with Kruger. With all the roster turmoil after the first cup, it's amazing how steady the team is going into this season. Probable lines: Bickell-Toews-Kane Sharp-Handzus-Hossa Saad-Shaw-Hayes Bollig-Kruger-Smith Keith-Seabrook Oduya-Hammer Leddy-Rozsival Kostka-Brookbank Crow-Khabi A successful year to me, barring major injuries, is a deep run into the conference finals.
  7. Let this post serve as my victory lap. Not exactly sure how my guys pulled it off. Team MVPs, Hunter Pence and David Ortiz.
  8. Aaaaand being in St. Louis, FOX will be showing the Rams-Jags game. Christ.
  9. We lost one, so need three more for the hockey league if we are going to do this. Draft tonight at 7:00 central.
  10. Why are we calling timeouts? I guess if it pisses off Schwartz it's worth it.
  11. Surprised that catch was allowed to stand.
  12. Hester is so stupid.
  13. Haha, perfect.
  14. Damn that could have gone to the house.
  15. He looked wide open. That's just a terrible throw.
  16. So we gonna just run it a few times to get to the half?
  17. Okay, Cutler is having a bad day. But this run defense is pathetic.
  18. [expletive] you Jay.
  19. Wow thanks Sheffler.
  20. Reggie Bush? Come on.
  21. I'm not one of the Jay apologists around here, but I wonder about Jeffrey on that route.
  22. Link is over in the fantasy threads.
  23. You know you want to: http://hockey.fantasysports.yahoo.com/hockey/76310/invitation?key=ef751f38237b1b91 At least three more teams available. Online draft Monday at 7:00.
  24. For those not checking the NHL season thread we are trying to start up an NSBB fantasy hockey league. We have 4, need at least 4 more. Let me know if you're interested.
  25. Okay we're halfway there we can do this with 8. A few more and I'll set it up on Yahoo if we do an online draft would probably have to do it Monday.
