  1. What one Cav fan is thinking today:
  2. For real. Those fans who say they don't want LBJ is one of two kind of people: 1. Those who believe LBJ won't becoming to Chicago, thus they will say they don't want him in case he doesn't come or 2: they are the same fans that would boo a rookie making his debut at Wrigley Field. Otherwise, I want LBJ in a Bulls jersey soooooo bad that I am having a hard time keeping my excitement about the possibility to a minimum. So those who don't want LBJ, needs to turn in their Chicago Bulls fans card, cause they don't deserve to be fans. There will be plenty of "Bulls fans" to take their place if they stop rooting for the Bulls because LeBron came here. Maybe I can pretend like I am one of the grumpy long time die hards of the Blackhawks who basically hate that the team is good because they can't get tickets anymore because bandwagon fans are snatching them up. That's what would happen if we got LBJ. Between both tennants, I would probably only be able to get inside the UC for Disney on Ice.
  3. Not to overlook any opponents ahead of us, but in my opinion they are a 4-3 stretch from winning it all. Crazier things have happened though. If Montreal beats Pittsburgh tonight, I'll feel much stronger about that statement of course.
  4. Yeah, I read the other day that Miami was option A, B and C for Bell, who is from the area, but if we somehow signed LBJ, that could probably change his view of the market.
  5. Try back in mid-June and we'll see where we stand with that issue.
  6. You gotta fit 5 minutes about Bartman in there.
  7. Man these postgame quotes from Lou are sounding more and more like the previous Cubs manager by the day.
  8. I read in the Redeye today that the Cubs have led the league in hitting since like April 21st with a .295 BA. How can that possibly be? In that 19 game stretch, the Cubs have been held at 3 runs or less 10 times. And yet they have a .295 BA in that stretch. How is the team collectively hitting so well, and the starting pitching has been at least average if not slightly above. Yet we can't score runs and lose more than we win.
  9. Interesting, but I am not getting my hopes up until I see a smiling LeBron holding up a Bulls jersey with GarPax and Calipari grinning on either side of him. Until then this is a pipedream that I cannot work up excitement for.
  10. How many more times do we have to beat the Canucks before they shut up about being better than us? We know how to win = you gave up 17 goals in 3 home games you idiot.
  11. I gotta believe that the love for Luongo in Vancouver has gotta be dwindling a bit after getting destroyed 2 years in a row in the playoffs. When he's good I'll admit he's good, but it's way too easy to mentally get him off his game and he's just not consistent.
  12. So this isn't a lock but it's looking like if Boston beats Philly tomorrow, Game 1 will be on Friday. If Philly beats Boston, Game 1 will be on Sunday. If you missed my post a few pages ago, the reason is because A) The NHL wants all previous series to complete before the next round starts, so if Philly wins tomorrow, game 7 would be on Friday, and B) The HP Pavillion is hosting concerts on Thursday and Saturday, so the only viable dates are Friday or Sunday. I am guessing since the Hawks and Sharks will have the longest wait between series, Game 1 shouldn't be any later than Sunday.
  13. With the way home ice has gone this playoffs, I'm almost glad the Hawks lost to the Wangs on the last day of the season.
  14. Kasler and Kane exchanged a bro hug in the handshake line.
  15. lol at Buff and Kane play fighting at the buzzer.
  16. GIVE HENDRY LOTS OF ICE TIME HERE
  17. Did we win game three 5-2? I can't remember. If so, we outscored Vancouver 17-7 in Vancouver this series and they never had a lead at home. That's an average score of 5.67-2.33
  18. Aww...emulating their heroes.
  19. We own Vancouver on the scoreboard *and* in their heads. Completely and thoroughly own their souls. yeah, definitely. owning a team 2 postseason's in a row is special i cant even imagine how much vancouver fans hate our team right now. I agree, but Calgary has gotta be a close second. We beat them in the playoffs last year, I think we swept them the last 2 seasons, and the cherry on top is of course the 5-0 comeback in October.
  20. we really need to get the foley calls of all the goals somehow Sometimes I've seen NHL.com use the local broadcast call instead of the national broadcast. I've seen them use CBC, VS and CSN for highlight packages this series. Check back an hour after the game is over.
  21. LOL double minor. They will have 3:30 to score 4 goals if we can't score and they can't score.
  22. I am not sure which team we absolutely own more, Vancouver or Calgary.
