Fellas, I think I have found them. Sure they may be Swedish and we'll have to root against them from time to time, but-just look here aiight?

Is rather interesting to me. I think the mom's response is pretty solid. As usual the comments at the end of the story are almost more of a story to me. http://www.parentcentral.ca/parent/newsfeatures/article/998960--genderless-baby-s-mother-responds-to-media-frenzy

I've never understood this argument. If Vancouver wins the cup, millions of Canadians will be happy (me not being one of them, but that's not the point). If Boston wins, at least 22 Canadians and their extended friends and families will be happy, along with a few thousand Canadian Bruins fans.

I've given up on conventional North American Sports. From now on I only follow real athletes, like F1 Racers and Cricketeers. This is my new favorite sports team:

Im going TB all the way! I thought they were gonna do it last night, I really did. They came so damn close. I really want TB-Sharks final, but Im worried Van is gonna pull it out. (I spent a few years living on Vancouver Island and I talked waaaaayyyy too much shit while there to turn around and support them now. No fucking way!) Also, I have watched the Sharks more than ever this year and I love their team. My worst nightmare is a Vancouver - Boston Final. I wouldn't be able to cheer for either team. I hate the fucking Green Guys with a passion and I love seeing Cam Neely squirm when Boston is sucking. It's a lose-lose for me. But seriously, these playoffs have been off the hook good. Seriously.

In hindsight, should have known WSH wasn't very strong going in, and that Philly's goalie troubles would bite them in the ass. As for the DET-SJ series, its been great to watch - really close games - but SJ has been getting the breaks. And Im kinda rootin' for Nashville...but I think Van will pull it out. Great playoffs this year!!

Apparently, you have to pay to get a lot of the sporting events. I was majorly disappointed when I found that out a while back. As for the change, it pisses me off because now I'll have to re-do all my presets. I tells ya, it aint the easiest thing to do while driving. But at least I have some warning this time. I remember when they changed jam-on to Pearl jam radio without telling me - that was a confusing week and a half. And, does Pearl Jam really need a whole channel?

There's lots of Bored to Death, its at least done two seasons. It's really good, forgot to mention it. Also, I think How to Make it...is doing a second season, but not sure when it comes out. Maybe this summer. Oh and of course, who could forget True Blood. You know you all watch it.

I gotta see this Breaking Bad show... I like: How to Make it in America Entourage Hung Treme This Week in Baseball

Im with you Meggo! I thought that if Deangelo took over it could still be pretty good (great even), but I guess he's not sticking around. Too bad. It will be interesting to see where it goes.

I missed the Panger incident, holy shit! From quick google search I came across this:

Sorry Ollie, that wasn't aimed at you - I know where your coming from. But ya, I'll "go there". I won't claim blatant racisim, but i will say that Subban gets treated unfairly and there's a possibility that it has to do with him not being a white, english-speaking Canadian. It's there in all sports really. Just sayin.

I find that odd myself. Obviously, others get shit for, you know, giving the finger to the crowd and what not, but seems Subban is picked on more often than not. When TSN predicted him to be one of the most hated guys in the playoffs, well, I was forced to look at it in the way Bomani Jones or Dave Zirin would - and I think we all know where I'm going with this...

couln't find the The Office thread using the search, but... So long to the World's Best Boss! You will be missed...

Hmmm, much tougher to call this round... VAN - 7 Det - 6 WSH - 7 PHI - 6

7 for 8. What do we do now C-towns? Both our teams lost?

Dammit! At least it wasn't Kelly.

Series started with such promise too - all the base running and cool tactics and what-not. Such a shame to end so poorly.

I didn't catch all of it, but the parts I did see left me totally uninspired.

I was suggesting you bet against my picks on pro line or something, but allright... How about we forget the number of games, and just make a friendly bet on the Pitt-TB series? If Pitt wins I'll go Pens jersey holding a sign that says "I blame Fakeschwa," or something like that, but if TB wins...well now , I gotta think about it for a bit. I'll get back to ya after lunch.

I think I've been over 90% wrong in all my predictions over the last little while, so if anyone is looking to make some money...

Yikes. I liked it better when I thought just Frasor and Rauch sucked the big one. At least its still early!
