    First pitch! Hope I get to break out the W flag for the mail box tonight!

    I get there no later than 3 hours before.

    Maybe I'll continue the tradition at the Sox game the week following, then. ;)

    It's one day a year. Sorry my opening day traditions are different than yours.

    What the hell is wrong with the world? She's actually addicted to crack I think. But what's so wrong with lucky tacos?

    Looks like starting the season late couldn't even stop the inevitable snow outs.

    Least excited I've ever been for Opening day. However, I bet my excitement will pick up on the drive home! Thank God it's not a day game!

    Michael Jordan. LeBron has to win a a title before you can even think about that. we had this conversation before and it was decided that lebron may be the most physically gifted player in nba history, he is not, nor ever will be a killer. and there are killers that walk the courts of the nba, even now. A killer? Is this some sort of "intangibles" argument? So somehow if a guy like Kobe forces up a shot regardless if there is an open man in the corner, that makes him a killer? Don't get me wrong, I can see LeBron needing to step up his intensity, but there have been countless times where he does/has. Did you watch the playoff game with Detroit? He doesn't do it in the same way Kobe does, but his skill and the results are still there. he's probably watched 2 cavs games all year, he doesn't know what he's talking about

    1. Get to Wrigley by no later than 9:00am. 2. Get 3 soft tacos (no lettuce for good luck) by 10:00 am from the Taco Bell across the street from Wrigley. From the same lady I get my beautiful tacos from every year for the last 7 years. 3. Honor the Ernie Banks/Harry Caray statues. 4. Be in line for the bleachers no later than 10:20am. 5. Enter bleachers (RIGHT FIELD) at 11:20 and heckle the Rockies as they warm up. 6. Get an Old Style and Nachos immediately and pray for lefties to send a HR ball our way during BP. 7. Repeatedly ask Milton Bradley "HOW MANY OUTS!?!?!?" and have him wave his fingers at us with the amount of outs currently in the inning. (This practice would normally be frowned upon except when you see a veteran like Derrek Lee forget how many outs there are and cost his team an inning.)

    Most Chicagoans are stubborn to the idea of even attending a hockey game. Then they are stupid faces. :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping:

    I was intently focused on the game as well (unlike the other patrons around me). I distinctly remember a play in the 2nd period where Khabibulin was infused by the soul of Patrick Roy and made AT LEAST 4 saves in a row. Another couple great double-save sequences as well from him. Also, Mason was incredible as usual. Hockey "novices" don't give a [expletive] about goaltending... they want to see hits and goals and fights, this fight had none of the above. Sucks when you can't back up what you tell them about hockey.

By watching the Lakers and Cavs and Bulls exclusively this year I can say LeBron > Kobe and it isn't even nearly as close as it used to be.

What constitutes a "killer"? Not being snide, just wondering what your classification is.

    Most boring game of the season. Not to mention it was unfortunately the first game of the season i watched in a bar. Man are there not 900 million hockey [expletive] people in this city? I spent the majority of the game defending hockey to everyone I was with... I tried to get the girls into it talking about how there is sometimes fights and big hits and a lot more goals than the old days... boy did I look like an [expletive] when they watched this game. The guys couldn't stop talking about how gay and boring hockey was based on the product they were seeing on the TV right by us. What a brutal night :( I did, however call Steegers game winner when I saw him come on the ice in OT... sure enough he luckily beat Steve Mason 1 v 1! Good win!

    If he was a cancer in the Rangers club house, they wouldn't have brought him back. What are the Rangers? Like 58-37-12 or something with Avery in the line up?

    LeBron James is the best player in the NBA, possibly ever.
  20. Cynosure
    That's pretty amazing and everything but there was a huge discussion going on about that video and it being fake for April Fool's day. Haven't heard anything from my friends in Scandinavia either way.

    Big Z needs to think about things before he says them.

    thomas must be really scary then, because avery turtled like a little girl when the goalie came after him. Jumped him from behind.
  23. Cynosure
    no i wish injury on him because he's a terrible person. i've seen all of them play; i haven't seen any of them consistently stoop to the level that avery stoops to. Actually Ott has many times. He actually TRIES to injure people when he gets pissed, Avery just becomes a bigger douchebag pest. Ott took out Sharp for 6 weeks with a dirty knee-to-knee hit just this year. Oh and lets not forget what happened a couple days ago: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wRHHk86KhU

    oh right, because it wasn't proven it didn't happen? what's avery going to say, "yeah you got me, i called him a monkey." have fun playing in russia because your nhl career is over. given avery's track record of doing or saying anything to get under somebody's skin, i'll believe the black guy who's never accused another player of usinng a racial slur over a lowlife like avery. by skating through the crease or giving them a jab behind the leg. they don't knock goalies behind the head as they're skating down the ice, jab the goalie beneath the mask or jump around like an idiot in front of the net. the guy is an unprofessional clown who conducts himself in a manner unlike any other player in the league; one of these days i'd like to see him get his face broken by a great enforcer (which isn't likely because he'd just run away or turtle) and spend the rest of his potential playing years eating through a straw. So you wish injury on him because hes annoying? Your a flyers fan, right? I guess that's what I'd expect. If you don't think anyone else acts like him you should watch Corey Perry, Steve Ott, Matt Cooke, Patrick Kaleta, Tootoo, Tucker, or Jarko Ruutu play. I don't think he's too fond of many of them either.

He pretty much drops them with anyone... he's faced some tough customers and usually loses.
