meh, its here in nashville. i figured being a rabid sharks fan, youd be watching it on tv somehow. ill take pictures i guess.

i'll try but i'm in portland so the only sharks games i can watch are the nationally televised ones

but they have live webcasts of the rest so i'll survive

 

[lizard]

does the NHL even have a nationwide television contract anymore??

 

[Demonspell]

I'm pretty sure it's on some obscure satellite network only accessible by tilting your dish so it aligns with Mars...

I'm soooooooo glad I have satellite radio, because my local sports radio is doing preseason Bluejackets games.

Bah.

however ~

Rick Nash is going to be a monster.

 

[dorian gray]

blue jackets are my favorite team. but it's gonna be hard to give them attention when the predators are probably one of the three best teams in the league.
predictions.....
surprise team: penguins
leading goal scorer: rick nash
regular season mvp: tomas vokoun
most penalty minutes: jody shelley
stanley cup: flyers
meh, cant think of anything else

 

[lizard]

you should hear the local sports radio station perform fellatio on the Bluejackets' Doug McClain every day.

"We welcome Doug McClain to the Fan, slurp slurp slurp."

that being said, this year they are easily into the playoffs.

hahaha! they suck. and that's coming from a hardcore fan. although they picked up some real defensemen so..i dunno....maybe. denis will still face 800 shots a game somehow. even with his fantastic .980 save percentage, that's 16 goals against per game. heheh

 

[lizard]

it's not a stretch to claim a team has a shot at the playoffs, given that 2/3rds of them do.

heh, true. well, 8 from each conference. so, it's more like 50%. (unless something changed). but, i dunno about the BJs. with the new CBA, they picked up some solid defensemen but they still lack the depth that many other teams have. i mean, who are rick nash's linemates? he doesnt have the good fortune to play with guys like wayne gretzky's mates.
i hope they make it. it'd be great.

NAD, you're a Dolphins fan, and you're hating on MY RAIDERS?!

Ugh.

I can't wait until the Silver-n-Black pulverizes your teal-clad pansies from South Florida.

(that'll come back to haunt me, lol)

 

[NAD]

LOL, that game won't even be close, and no, it won't be Texas on top. Sorry.

took the words right out of my mouth.
glad to see the SEC mockery above too. i HATE the SEC. sucks to live in the south and hear about it all the time. people are still driving around with "tennessee national champions" license plates. that was like in 1896 or something.
and, yep, texas will beat USC. they beat my buckeyes so they better damn well better win it all.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

Once again, Texas has NO CHANCE of beating USC. None. USC is better than the Texans in the NFL.

 

[dorian gray]

notre dame *almost* beat them a couple weeks ago. ive never been more disheartened than when that hit and resulting fumble was recalled. i almost cried. i fucking hate USC.
