wow this whole site looks completely different from the last time I posted. Props to Sean Martelli for keeping this site looking clean and updating while I wallow in my own laziness. Too Jorgen as well.
Anyway, my last post was a hardcore hype article on the orange and black. It was only natural that right after i pressed that publish button they had their winning streak snapped and lost a couple of games. This is a perfect example, by the way, of why i am so superstitious. So I'm going to refer back to this the next time I make a ridiculous statement regarding knocking on wood and the outcome of a game. But, Overall the Flyers are still playing good hockey, we're just not as scorching hot. Last night was a big "fuck Canadians your only good for your beer" win. Its important to not let the Montrealians... Montrealites... Montre... whatever, those who live in Montreal, get an edge over us. They are a talented team and are way better than the squad we beat in the Eastern Conference Finals last year. Carey Price is finally living up to his Canadian borne nickname of Jesus Christ--Holy shit do they take hockey seriously up north--and the possible scrutiny he faced after the Habs traded away playoff hero Jaroslav Halak. But the main reason this is a big win? I hate seeing that little fucking twerp PK Subban look so smug. This guy reminds me of the neighborhood kid that's 5 years younger than everyone else but just wont shut up about how good he is and how much he wants to play with the older kids. We get it. Your young, evergetic and just a pain in the ass. Take a lesson from Richie and talk with your play not your overly rambunctious mouth.
In other news that makes me absolutely giddy, the Miami Heat are 8-6 and got blown out by the Indiana Pacers last night. HA. doesn't that just sound awesome? And you know what Lebron's brilliant insight to the situation? "we're not having fun right now." HA. This isn't your high school basketball team Lebron. You can't just meet up with two good friends who are talented and "fun" your way to an NBA championship. Seriously I know this guy is only 25 years old but he really hasn't matured past fucking high school. The only good thing is now ESPN's Heat Index is even more of a joke than ever. I give it a month before they rename the page "heat panic meter" and start pointing out their mistakes like they hadn't spent the last 5 months hyping this team. Goddamn it ESPN I'm sick of your analysis.
The final tidbit is a shout out to the spectrum. As I type this sentence they are setting up a wrecking ball in South Philadelphia to take down one of the cities most historic buildings (Fuck you Independence Hall). I really only went to Phantoms games at the stadium and saw some other events but it was always cool being there. Favorite memory would have to be seeing the John Stevens and the Phantoms win the Calder Cup in 1996, which is minuscule on the scale of all time Spectrum moments but too a seven year old kid it was unbelievable.
We will miss you Spectrum, i'm sure your way better suited as a motel and parking garage. Although The stadiums are gonna be a lot more fun in a few years.
Fuck Hoodrats being allowed in your house, Love Philly
