Hey Palusut,

How's it going down in NC ? How's the training ? Are you going to the Michigan camp ?

Anyway, good joke about Tyson's teething problem. :rofl:

Did you see what Rahman's head looked like after his fight with Evander Holyfield ? Holy cow, it looked like an alien wanted to bust out of his head. Damn !! I love watching Evander Holyfield......what a warrior that man is.....he's taken on basically the entire heavyweight division in the last 10 years. He'll fight anyone......unlike quite a few heavyweights out there. He has no fear. He's Da Man!!

WOOOOOOO!!

:D

As for Lewis/Tyson- I predict Lewis wins by KO in the 5th round.

WOOOOOO!!
:cool:


There is always hope.

And mine is to get a tape of a bunch of people
from Ohio yelling 'Go Blue'. I could make a
fortune selling it to the fanatic U of M Fans. ;)

In my Opinion the Underdogs / aka the expansion
team aka Da Canes have the favor.

One would have to ask why? IF they loose then this
was their gaining experience year. And watch out
next year. If they win it is the Cinderella story
and that is always good for sports.
The Hurricanes have nothing to prove and nothing
to loose, but everything to gain. This means
the series will come down to the team that skates
the best and keeps out of the penality box.

And Like I said before, any sport that has 'TWO
Blades and a stick and Fighting' just has to be
cool. :rofl:

Have fun watching the Game Saturday.

As for Lewis and Tyson, I agree that Lewis should
take care of the teeth and the tyson issue as a
whole. I also saw the Rahman fight and man that
boil grew by the second. OUCH!

Oh well off I go to surf some more. :D

Lewis over Tyson by KO in the 8th! I expected the other way around, I must admit, but am pleased by this result.

This might be the first recorded instance of me
making a correct prediction.

This could be intersting. :D

Oh well back to more training and lawn work.

an error about Source Code. I had to close

again. Just curious if this s some of the items
the dedicated servor will help with? This was
my first time, so no history.

Hi Rich,

Good call on the fight!!! The Canes/Red Wings game was awesome too. The Canes almost stole one.

Hi Whoop,

I probably will not be able to make the Michigan camp. Hope to train with you again sometime.

Hey Palusut,

I'm sure that we'll run into each other somewhere sometime and work out together and catch up.

Rich, good call on the fight. Lewis opened up a serious can of whoopass on Tyson. Whew....what a dominant performance.:D

I've asked Kaith about this in case he misses your post but he has another computer on fire right now that he's putting out so I don't know when an answer will come. I haven't gotten a "source code" error before--odd.

For those who don't know, the software used is vBulletin and it's great stuff.

Lewis - To big and to strong. Might have been different if they took Mike off the meds. It's tough to fight a Pit Bull.

As for the "Cains not looking good.

On the Bright side most of the Wings are headed to Sunny-Brook retirement home right after the hoisting the cup. So next year is wide open.

Seriously, this has been great hockey (with the exception of preiod three of game 2). Fun to watch. Hitting, bashing and swinging sticks. What's the appeal ?

The Canes take another L, ouch!!!:wah:

That's ok, hopefully we'll catch up in Detroit!!!

The appeal down here is that we are new to hockey. Beforehand the closest thing to ice and hockey in the winter for us was sliding on linoleum floors with our socks on. :)

Looks like Tyson took the spanking well. He is acting well behaved now with some decency and honor, all is not lost.

As for the medicine he was on, was it the same stuff they gave him before the 20/20 interview with Robin Givens and Barbara Walters, man did he get his bell rung there too.

Please excuse this small poem. When I received it and read it
I enjoyed it and laughed.

'Twas the Night Before Playoffs

'Twas the night before Playoffs, and all through the Joe
Not a player was skating, not even Devereaux;
The jerseys were hung from the rafters with care,

Yes; Abel, Howe, Lindsay, Delvecchio were there.

The fans in Detroit were all snug in their beds,
While Stanley Cup fever danced 'round in their heads;
Kirk Maltby, Kris Draper, Dom Hasek, you see,
Would star in their dreams of what would soon be.

Next day on the ice there would be such a clatter,
That, for true fans of hockey, nothing else even matters.
Away to the arena, we fly like a flash,
(Unless we can't get tickets, 'cause we don't have the cash).

The laser light show on the freshly groomed ice
Would light up the way as we welcome our guys!
Then, what to our wondering eyes should appear,
But the best of the NHL, at least so far this year.

With a captain named Yzerman, and a winger named Hull,
We knew in a moment this would not be dull.
More rapid than eagles, the players they came,
And we whistled and shouted, as they called them by name;

"Now, Lidstrom! Now Chelios! Now, go, Larionov!
On Datsyuk! On Robitaille! And, now, Sergei Fedorov!
To the top of the Conference! To the top of the League!
There's no turning back! There will be no fatigue!

As the Canucks and the Blues and the Avalanche cry,
When they meet with the Wings, and their Stanley dreams die,
As New Jersey crumbles, and Montreal meets with fate,
The Leafs and the Hurricanes will just have to wait.

For now, in a twinkling, there comes to the party
Kuznetsov, Sean Avery, and Darren McCarty.
There's Dandenault, Duchesne, and Fischer, and Shanny!
There's Wallin, Olausson, and a goalie named Manny!

Then, dressed up so nicely, in the best they could find,
The coaches line up, with the trainers behind.
There's Lewis and Smith, and, of course, Scotty Bowman.
You'll notice John Wharton (if you are a woman)..

Our eyes, how they twinkle! Our hearts are so merry!
With Redmond to comment, or maybe Don Cherry.
We know Tomas Holmstrom will be taking no poop,
With luck he'll get backup, maybe from Uwe Krupp.

If we need them, Williams, Brule, or Elliott we'll finger.
Or Wikstrom, or Slegr, or Kohn, or Dwayne Zinger.

With a wink of his eye and a twist of his head,
Scotty soon had assured us we had nothing to dread.
He spoke not a word, these guys know how to work.
We won't need to deal with Claude Lemieux (what a jerk!).
I'm sorry I said that, I know it's not nice.
But I just couldn't help it, I won't do it twice.

They spring to the ice, as the referees whistle,
In pursuit of the cup they will fly like a missile.
And the fans will exclaim, whether they lose or win,
"Go, Red Wings! We Love You! What a great year it's been!"


GO WINGS!!!

Rich

Good luck to Mr. Parsons with the rioting and looting. Grab me a DVD player if you get the chance--we have a PS2 but not a dedicated DVD unit.

At an OP in view of your house...
Oh....Arnisador you said DVD!

I thought you said BVD's. I was in Detroit last night, and it was chaos! Lines wrapped around buildings for every Bar showing the game, not to mention the crowds at the "Joe."

Anyways, I got some homeless guy to give me his BVD's. There the perfect scent and color; just the way you like them. I already dropped them in the mail for ya.

;)

(* Second Attepmt at this ;~). THis morning was rejected do to Servor relocation. *)

Arnisador,

Thanks for the Congrats.

Where you guys say Riot, we say just having a party officer.
Where you say looting, we say Party Favors.

Funny how different parts of the country have different words
for the same things/events.

Seriously I hope all is well with everyone and all got home safe.

As for 'Da Canes', We' will see you next year, and who knows
what the out come will be then :D
