limp stick

i guess i've accidentally taken to the flyers and penguins, hoping they'll go to the conference final. then either way that series goes, im left with someone i want to watch in the final. seriously, i dont want to watch the rangers and more so, the canadians (bleh). i don't even know anything about them or about the team or whatever but they just seem so boring....ughh. so i guess its 'lets go flyers!' and 'lets go pens' even though the pens are kinda dumb and im glad im not a true fan. i dont know why i dont hate the flyers...i should. they kicked my caps to the curb! oh well, that little elven is dragging me towards his team...

PICTURE OF THE DAY:his stick is looking a little limp...or really, completely dysfunctional. im enjoying watching him trying to grow a beard. haaaaa

i think im only going to start doing daily pictures and then the song im listening to. short, simple, fun to look at. haha.
ohh, but im getting good at driving! mostly. my mom isnt scared to drive with me anymore...almost finished on the way to getting my license...i guess its time to sign up for "behind the wheel" now!!!

PICTURE OF THE DAY!!he rocks a pretty intense playoff beard...haha i saw this picture on someone else's blog

wow its been such a long time since i've been on this. im thinking about just not using it anymore because i know no one is looking at it and its not like i really need to keep a diary type thing where i pretty much talk about hockey (because i know if anyone was reading this, they wouldnt want to know anything about my personal life unless it was interesting...lol)

ohhh i forgot to say a real long time ago that i was standing next to matt fehr on the metro last sunday, i believe. game 2 of the quarterfinals for the caps in d.c.
i guess they wanted him up here and he popped on the train. at first, i didnt recognize him but i was like woah, this really huge guy is wearing a suit and i peered at his face for some time, knew that i recognized him from somewhere but couldnt place it. and then his name just appeared: FEHR....14.
and then i looked at the 2 women and little child he was with. i guessed one of the women was his wife because the things she was talking about kinda with him. and then i recognized the other woman as Quintin Laing's wife. partly because the little child she had with her was wearing a mini laing jersey (which i thought was semi-unusual) and then, Quintin had a little stint on "caps crib" where he showed his temporary appartment. it was tiny and empty and he had, like, 2 outfits in his closet. hahaha.... but i remember from the video they showed his wife and child so yes! i remember things really well. it was kinda fun. a brush with fame. i later told one of my friends and he was quite dissapointed i didnt ask for a signature. but what an awkward place. plus, i could remember his first name and i thought that neither of us would have had something to sign with much less something for him to sign. my friend suggested that i should have had him sign my body....mmm. im not that into him that i would ask him to sign my forehead or arm or something on the metro. but he was reallllyyyyyy tall. and his wife was short. shorter than me. and im only like 5'4. and hes huge. haha. and her eyeshadow and his tie matched. it was quite cute.
oh here he is!

onto last nights game?
i was extremely disappointed. you could see it coming in OT. caps had like 1 shot the whole time, the flyers had that powerplay, and we never really regained power after that. the goal was horrible. i could see it in the back of the net before lupul jumped up. my stomach sank and i was like like oh my god.....argggg. in the net...and it was such a shitting little sliding backhand...

i actually teared up. i was like i cant let myself cry. i didnt even cry for the sabres when they fucked up the conference final last year. maybe because i was watching it on t.v. and there wasnt quite the same emotion surrounding it. i guess all the winning they did in the regular season filled up my meter and this year i just didnt get enough. the caps tried so hard. they were soooo close. maybe thats why i teared up. at least the tears didnt roll down my cheek...
the refs sucked. people were throwing shit on the ice before the game was even over. they called such horrible calls. they often do that but it seemed like such a huge majority of them were against the caps and it sucked so bad.

all i can do it hope and pray that next season will be better in so many ways. i dont even know what to do with myself anymore. there is really no team i want to watch anymoreand i dont want to stop watching! i guess all i have to do now is my AP homework. maybe ill actually start doing it. and maybe ill start doing my algebra because theres no hockey left for me. maybe every once in a while ill check up on some of the teams, whats going on. really, just the flyers and penguins. just because briere is my old love and the pens are somewhat interesting. it wouldve been so great if the caps couldve played the pens. ah man. didnt that thought in the back of their minds keep the caps going in those rough minutes of OT? it shouldve. maybe they were thinking about unpacking their clubs, imagining themselves on the beautiful green grass...
i bet gary bettman was kinda praying for that. as people were saying, it wouldve been great for hockey. Ov vs. Crosby....


sorry, thats not them. i just thought this was an interesting picture. ah, i love danny, even though his gay team won.

sorry this is so long...

swept like a mofo

i believe this boy and his chin are about to sweep the ottawa senators. what an unbelievable year they've had from going way ahead in the conference winning something like 17 out of their first 18 games. or maybe it was 16 out of 17 or 15 out of 16. something like that. but going from that to losing in the first round. being SWEPT in the first round and getting shut out in the first game. what a horrible, horrible way to go. and everyone thought that they were going the distance, and believe me, i thought the same too until they started sucking like crazy and possibly couldve been knocked out of the playoffs after last years wonderful season and this season's wonderful start. oh well, sad things happen.

oh yes, its final as i just saw on nhl.com. that boy above and his chin scoring the last goal (probably an empty netter)

im afraid this is going to happen to my caps. of course, they've already won a game so they can't be swept but last night's game was horrible. 3rd period, i thought i was going to die. it was so frustrating. and their situation was so great, if they got knocked out now, it'd be soo horrendous. the "cinderella story" team having a great comeback game 1 and then sucking ass the rest of the series and dissapointing all their wonderful fans. hopefully they can pull off a win tomorrow night or they're doomed!

the only good thing about yesterdays game was that they didnt get shut out and my old love danny B had a nice game. arggggggggg

i need some cheer.ah, exercise biking.

i love playing hard puck

all i can say is THAT GAME SUCKED. there will we no other comments about that. maybe a picture of two because, of course, i love putting pictures up. ah yes, what a great one (not really. i still feel for him, deep in my heart...)

haha

oh yes, so i heard lauren conrad, firstly made famous from mtv's Laguna Beach and then The Hills is going to be blogging about the Ducks this postseason. I don't think hockey can get much better than that...cough,cough

and now, its time for some more interesting pictures, like yesterdays of alex ovechkin. today, the specimen will be........
crosby!
i found this one and many other very interesting ones on a forum just nowmmm wow

enjoy, once again. i have no idea what to say

comeback

well, my wonderful Caps played last night. it was a nice comeback. sucked i couldn't go but i was feeling sick anyways and wouldn't have thoroughly enjoyed it. but it was a game. heres some pictures

and then theres my old love daniel briere. i was sad he left, but of course, i've totally gotten over it and if i hadn't, i wouldve really needed a reality check. hockey is great, but its not the most important thing ever. and sometimes im excited when he scores even though i shouldnt. i already have to be excited for the sabres and the caps and THEN briere. i shouldnt be wasting my excitement on my old buddy.

ovechkin on his first playoff experience…

“Oh, yeah it was different. I was so nervous. I can’t even breathe right now, actually. Was good experience for us though, a big win. We still have lots of game and we have to forget this game.”

sounds beautiful. i can't wait for sunday because im actually going to that one. i have to go take a shower because we practiced out on a wet ass field and my legs are covered in shit. and my lip is slightly swollen because someone threw a ball at my face and my lip started bleeding. intense, eh? im really not canadian....

oh, one last thing. people post some pretty interesting pictures on forums:
alex ovechkin:
i have no idea what he's doing here but hes quite wet. nice bathingsuit. haha

kid in crocs

i just realized after re-reading yesterdays blog that i'm addressing you as if you are reading this. and no one will probably ever read this. so what am i doing? i have no idea. perhaps trying to let out my opinions and ideas and creativeness out on this blog. but as i said before, if you're reading this, then im extremely excited. maybe a little, actually.

we won our lacrosse game. we have a little help from some varsity players because tons of my team is missing for this field trip and we were short. i play defense and ended up being bored because the ball was kept on attack a good portion of the time. the score ended up being 14-6. we let in 3 fluke goals in almost a minute at the end and that totally sucked but we were plenty far up to succeed. but in lacrosse, its so easy to score tons of goals in a short period of time if you really put your heart into it. like i said, our opponents put one last push in the final minutes and got themselves 3 goals in 1 minute. once, at the beginning of a game, my team scored within 4 seconds. its pretty awesome.
oh and if you're reading this, i like putting pictures in my blog (pictures are always interesting) so they're might be a lot. im probably about to put one in. ha

that, of course, is guys lacrosse but i found the picture one time and liked it.

oh yeah, quarterfinals. um, you probably know all that happened. all i really saw was that the pens crushed the sens and i heard little sid got into a fight. thats enjoyable. too bad it missed it.

haha this picture has nothing to do with the game yesterday, its just a great picture.

crocs are supposed to be good for your feet

big wednesday

hello
its big wednesday. not really. it is wednesday, and its semi-big. stanley cup quarter finals start today! no one of any consequence to me is playing but still, its here! actually, i said big wednesday because thats me and my friends 'thing' because there is a smoothie at robeks called 'the big wednesday' and it is quite delicious.

speaking of quarterfinals, my caps are playing on friday! i am so happy that they made it. i went to the last regular season game. it was quite exciting. the place was extremely red.

its quite amazing. haha. they were happy, we were happy

oh yea, and they're doing this awesome promotion that you should be a part of. elliot in the morning is pretty amazing and so it mike green!yes, he is a part of this, so you should do it. for more information, you can go on the caps website. or here's the link:

http://capitals.nhl.com/team/app/?service=page&page=NewsPage&articleid=359818

well, i have a lacrosse game, so i best be getting ready! hopefully we'll win. we're 2-2 at the moment so .500
thats not so great. haha.

oh and just so you know, yes i live near d.c. so i am a Caps fan because i love hockey but the Sabres are my first team, meaning i'm firstly devoted to them. i'm not from there in any way but my dad went to high school there and his parents still live there and he got us kids into the Sabres. yea, they weren't so hot this season. i realize that. but its fine. i still got my caps in the playoffs and i get to go to the 2nd game on Sunday!
ovie and his missing tooth will always cheer me up

day 1

So this is my day one of the blog. I've started one of these blogs but I have no idea what happened to it. The memory seems to be hidden behind hockey stats and AP history. I guess I've decided to start one again because I've been reading this amazing one. It was like the perfect mix of humor and hockey: the 2 best things in the world. Almost (hey, I'm listening to The Almost right now).

For this first post, I'm not really going to say much else. I have no idea what I'm going to write about but if you read this, then wonderful! I actually have someone reading my wonderful work.

I'm probably going to watch the Hills tonight. What a great show, really.

I'll probably put the song I'm listening to when I finish the post at the end of the post. So here it is!!
