    NHL Playoffs

    Habs play well for a stretch during a game and really look good, then play stupid for a while and get beat. Frustrating team, really no different than they have been all season. The Bruins-Sabres game was great, the goal tending in OT was fantastic.
  3. Grrr. No Supernatural tonight because the Verizon network is not completely working. I can only get to some site, not Hulu or CW.
  4. I hope it was a nice day.
  5. Have fun!
  6. Flash Forward sucks IMO, I hate Fiennes in it. I guess I keep recording them in case it gets better. Each week fewer people are watching so I doubt it will be back so I probably wont even watch any of them. I'll continue to call it an error I made, I wont point out that I recorded FlashForward correctly but not Supernatural. Sometimes after I start a show I will stay with it too long after it changes or never pans out. Then I find myself watching shows I dont really like. I finally deleted a bunch of Dollhouse episodes a few weeks ago. I like Faith, like Whedon but just didnt like the show.
  7. Lol, I have two as well. It wasnt a DVR problem, it was a me problem. Thursday night I am usually out for a while and tape a bunch of shows. I taped Fringe on one, and Supernatural (also FlashForward which I am 6 behind and probably will never watch) on the other. Friday night we watched Fringe then moved to the other TV to watch Supernatural. When I pulled up the recorded list I saw Fringe was on that one as well. So I messed up and recorded Fringe twice instead of Supernatural.

    The Habs were wonderful tonight, I was really amazed by the line of Plekanec, Kostitsyn, and Cammalerri. Kostitsyn in particular I have had enough of, I hope neither are back next season. Whenever there was a Caps goal, the three of them were politely watching. Spacek earns points for helping on the first goal too. He should learn to knock the net off like the Capitals did, not knock your own goalie.
  9. Looking for confirmation but would this be the 2nd worst start in Orioles history?
  10. No, but I did check and it is up on the web now. Hopefully tomorrow. If you want to post about it I can avoid this thread for a day.

    I was running around today and saw very little. I saw that the Penguins kicked the Senators ass. I watched the last 10 minutes of the Coyotes game, they are fun to watch. I wonder if the Sharks angered the hockey gods at some point, they cannot catch a break. Both goalies were great (actually Nabby only had 15 saves in regulation) but Dan Boyle hits one past his own goalie in OT.
  12. Especially when the national network isnt even showing the game. I am feeling big error keeping an inning alive for more runs today.

    I have to think they start Varlamov on Monday, Theodore is going to watch - probably until Varlamov really sucks. The Habs played well except for the defense but thats they way they have all season, so I cannot be surprised. The Habs suspect D and a few (IMO) weak goals let in made for a great comeback. Martin likes a defensive game, as do most coaches but I do not think the personnel fits that. I think they would be better off playing an up tempo aggressive game a lot more than they do. Random thoughts: I hated how much contact the Capitals were allowed on Halak. The penalty on Gill finishing his check on Semin was a joke (but didnt cost them). Pouliot should be smacked for tripping a Capital right after a huge goal, same for Cammalleri's slash late. Halak was at times really good, but he should have stopped the last two IMO. Backstrom was awesome and Ovechkin really woke up. I hated how the Capitals knocked the net off at a most opportune time with no call, but thats nothing new. The league rarely calls that penalty. Gomez was great, and I admire his spirit in fighting, but he was too good the last two game to be in the box for 5. My complaints may seem like I dont think the better team won, not true. The Habs were up 4-1 late in the 2nd, a team has to win that. I tip my hat to the Capitals.

    I hate sports!
  15. Oops! We sat down to watch Supernatural on DVR last night and I made a recording error Thursday and it was not there. And its not on Hulu or the Cw.com yet. I had to sleep with one eye open so the mrs couldnt kill me in my sleep.

    Crosby was awesome last night. The 'Wings-Coyotes series is a lot of fun. That second period was crazy.

    I am not amazed the Habs won, but I did think they would have to play better than they did. Neither team was great nor bad IMO; that made for a very entertaining game! Like you posted it was a good road playoff win.

    So Millz, how is your sleep level going to be the next few weeks? Come playoff time I dont get as much as I normally do. Luckily I dont have to be at work that early.

    Looks like the same old Sharks. I tried to watch that game but the Coyote-Wings game was much more entertaining.

    Im not claiming the Senators win was all luck, they played well and got a few breaks. Its still a long series. Glad to see the Coyotes tie it up. Will the Sharks actually go deep this season?

    Good game, the Sens got lucky on the Kelly goal.
  22. Well Pie's base running out was with no outs last night then the next batter doubled so that would have had an effect. I partially agree and am partially amused by your argument of ineptness by the team making their base running problems matter less. My thoughts of Trembley being fired mainly stem from the teams perspective that they expect to be better this season, and Trembley knows that is expected. So when, if they do not turn it around do they make the move? Records of 1-10? 3-20? I know how hard it is to clean house midseason, so in many ways I would prefer to wait but I dont think the team will.
  23. The starting pitching has been pretty decent too. If that was worse I might be less angry than I am about their play and record.
  24. Is it all one persons fault? No, but I know they have to be thinking when to fire Trembley. And if they really think this team is a better than last years they have to. Soon. I like his attitude and his press conferences but I havent liked how many base running and fundamental mistakes this team seemed to make in the past year. If they fire him they better f'in clean house too and get rid of the coaching staff.
  25. When the firings come, and I do think they will come, they better fire everyone and not bring in a new manager with coaching spots intact.
