The Critic

The National Penguins Network starts next Saturday.

QUOTE (SoxFanForever @ Jan 1, 2009 -> 02:32 PM) I hate Detroit. They just keep proving they're a better team than the Hawks.

Na na naaa naaaaa.... Oh wait....wrong ballpark...

That's a goal. 6-3 if the big cheeses in Toronto get it right.

Well, this game is getting out of hand. Another PPG for Detroit. 5-3 Wings now.

Datsyuk with a pretty goal. 4-3 Wings now. Stupid announcer claiming Datsyuk was wind-blown. Dumbass.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jan 1, 2009 -> 01:42 PM) :o :o :o :o I don't like his jive radio guy voice. He just irks me.

Another Wings PP goal. 3-3 now. Different game this period altogether.

QUOTE (SnB @ Jan 1, 2009 -> 01:37 PM) couldn't imagine sox games otherwsie. #thirrrty fiive.....fraaaaaaaaaank thomas. I'd like to try. Bad call against the Wings followed by an immediate make-up call against the Hawks.

QUOTE (SnB @ Jan 1, 2009 -> 01:29 PM) oh yeah....gene honda at wrigley make me feel strange on the inside. I don't really like Gene Honda, so anything he says makes me cringe.

s***. stupid bounce leads to Detroit goal. 3-2 Hawks.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jan 1, 2009 -> 01:14 PM) That goal was perrtty. As was Havlat's off that sweet pass from Versteeg. Eager's celebration was fairly awesome as well.

Eager makes it 3-1! NICE!

Seabrook sent Cleary ass over appetite into the Hawks bench. Nicely done and perfectly legal. The Hawks look much better than they did the other night so far.

QUOTE (LosMediasBlancas @ Jan 1, 2009 -> 03:53 AM) False. The person below me has a raging hangover and owes someone an apology for last night. False and False. Low key is the only way to go. The person below me will not be watching the Winter Classic today.

That guy will still pay $400 for two upper-deck tickets against the Cardinals.

I can't let that new thread smell last: I went out early last night so I'd be home to ring in the new year with my kid, and even at 10:30 PM people were driving like assholes. Weaving all around, changing lanes with no signals, merging with no warning, speeding up instead of backing off when there was congestion. You know, the usual.... EDIT: Colin Cowherd sucks. He's filling in for Mike & Mike, reminding me why I'm so glad his show is not broadcast in Chicago regularly.

QUOTE (LosMediasBlancas @ Jan 1, 2009 -> 03:44 AM) But does Marisa Tomei get naykee in it? ;) Touche. I forgot the "nudity trumps all" rule, LOL.

QUOTE (Cali @ Dec 31, 2008 -> 05:28 PM) Sorry Grandpa Grandpa likes melody.

QUOTE (dasox24 @ Dec 31, 2008 -> 11:50 PM) And goodbye 2008... And good riddance. 2008 was not a year I'll choose to remember.

I'm glad it's on. I don't care about football, especially college football, so a hockey game on New Year's Day is right up my alley.

My iPod did its fair share of freezing when I first got it, but thankfully I haven't had a problem with it in over a year now.

Just got back from seeing The Wrestler. I enjoyed it, but it wasn't a great movie by any stretch. It was a decent movie, worth seeing for a night out with the Mrs, but nothing outstanding. Rourke did a nice job, maybe Oscar-worthy, maybe not.

Wow, that's lame. It's supposed to snow tomorrow anyway, so what's the point?

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ Dec 31, 2008 -> 08:06 AM) Speaking of driving news, here is some of the lamest coverage in racing http://www.sportsbybrooks.com/danica-patri...for-speed-21584 Why do we care? A racecar driver, speeding? NO WAY!! And she isnt even speeding more than any of us do on a regular drive. GMAB I agree that it's not big news, but I can see the appeal for a newspaper/website to print a story about a race driver getting busted for speeding. People shouldn't care, but that can be said for any and all celebrity news. No one should care, but many people do.
