Unf***ingbelievable.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 30, 2010 -> 01:20 AM) How loud was the United Center? Did the fans ever lose faith in this one? Was it wild throughout? Do people cuss out Hossa? The UC was insanely loud. NHL.com had an article with some decibel stats. The highest it reached was 121 dB, which was during the anthem. It was ridiulously loud. http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=530503 Fans never seemed to lose faith. There was a great atmosphere throughout the game. Some frustrating moments, but they were loud throughout. And I didn't hear anyone say anything bad about Hossa. Kane and Sopel on the other hand...

QUOTE (danman31 @ May 29, 2010 -> 01:09 PM) In an ideal world maybe Serbia shouldn't lose to New Zealand. So I heard. I didn't get to watch the game so I can't comment. Not sure what the hell happened. From what I've been told, we played far better than NZ but just come up on the wrong end. I also can't find a box anywhere so I have no clue who played and who didn't. EDIT: I guess Ivanovic, Krasic, Jovanovic, and Stankovic all didn't play. That would explain the lack of offense.

Amazing game. The UC was absolutely nuts. People give crap to Hossa for not scoring a lot of points, yet no one talks about how non-existent Kane has been, especially today. At least if Hossa isn't scoring, he's forcing turnovers, keeping the puck alive in the offensive zone, back-checking and he's getting teammates involved. Sopel got far too much ice time for my liking as well. The defense in general was pretty bad. Bad positioning, failure to handle and pass the puck in the defensive zone, and just too many opportunities in the slot for Philly. It was great to steal one playing the way we did.

14.5 hours away. I can't wait to be there.

QUOTE (DBAHO @ May 29, 2010 -> 03:33 AM) I look forward to it Slav. I don't think Germany is the lock the come out of our group also, although they SHOULD make it out, although a lot teams "should have" over the years. They don't have a striker in good form (Gomez and the other Bayern Munich striker whose name escapes me had poor seasons), and obviously losing Ballack takes away a lot of experience in midfield (although I don't rate him much as a player now, he hurt Chelski more then he helped them this season IMO). I guess in an ideal world, Serbia and Australia make it out, but we'll see. I agree with you on Germany. This might be one of the must inexperienced teams they'll have ever featured. And Ghana is going to have a tough time without Essien, though they're still quite talented and athletic. And a plus for them is that their coach is Serbian, however, Antic has Serbia playing like no other Serbian/Yugoslavian team before.

QUOTE (DBAHO @ May 27, 2010 -> 11:36 PM) Yep very good news for us, certainly makes our group a lot more wide open now. All of the teams would be fancying their chances at making it to the 16 I would say. Its going to get ugly between you and I very soon.

I was very surprised with Zombieland. It was quite enjoyable.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ May 25, 2010 -> 07:00 PM) pathetic, so very embarrassing to get your ass kicked by this indians team. It's 3-0..........

Nicely done Andruw.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 25, 2010 -> 06:52 PM) I said this when it happened, and I still believe it today: give me Clayton Richard, prospects, and a ton of money for other holes over Jake Peavy in the AL. Must feel really good about yourself when you say things like that, don't you?

I wish Carlos Quentin would go back to 2008.

HAHA, Austin Kearns.

What do ya know? Teahen with a nice defensive play. Is it just me or does it look like he palms the ball when he throws to 1st?

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 25, 2010 -> 09:35 AM) IIRC Cleveland wasnt even showing up much in 2007 when they did have a good team. Everyone in the entire stats of Michigan is a Red Wings "fan".

QUOTE (knightni @ May 25, 2010 -> 01:34 AM) It's been almost 20 years since that last Cup final. Does it matter if the seats are crappy or not? At over $400 a pop, yes, it matters.

Imagine this dream scenario: We draft Henry or Anderson, Lebron signs with the Bulls, Phil Jackson comes back to Chicago, then we sign and trade for Bosh. Wow.

Alright, I'm thinking about buying tickets to one of the first 2 games. Anyone got any suggestions for where to sit in the 300 level? Anyone sit in 303 or 321? I just don't want to spend a ton and have crappy seats.

GM 1 SAT at 7 PM, GM 2 MON at 7 PM. Both on NBC.

Leighton against Niemi in the Stanley Cup Finals. Whoda thunk it?

Its set. Hawks vs Flyers for the Cup.

WP scores Beckham. How did Masterson shut us down earlier this season???

Danks can't really be throwing 94, can he?

QUOTE (bulokis @ May 24, 2010 -> 05:15 PM) Anybody know or here anything about Ladd's injury? Queneville said in the post game interview that he should be fine and not miss any time.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ May 23, 2010 -> 10:52 PM) The ending makes me feel like I wasted six years on this show. I was just reading all these complaints about it on Twitter. Thank God I only watched part of 1 episode and nothing else.
