I think I'm on to something!

Followed the first 2 games very closely, ignored game 3 completely...will do the same for game 4 and see what happens!

1. Is that kind of like wearing a team jersey for luck??
They only win when I wear this jersey

2. Well, after the Red Sox dismal start, I stoppped paying attention to baseball for
a few weeks, and look what happened! It must be sort of a good luck charm...not to watch.

3. Whoo-boy was that fun!
Vancouver's falling apart.

And now the announcers are piling on, too.

This is getting ugly.

But it's hockey. So it's still fun.

4. I know Detroit got knocked out of the playoffs because I made an error
when I got off the bus that night, I thanked the bus driver (most bus riders in Seattle do). I forgot that when it's hockey playoffs, I'm supposed to say, "Good night" or "have a nice night" instead. I blew it big time.

5. Ignored it completely again last night...saw the score when I was getting
gas on my way to work...this seems like the way I will get the Bruins to win it all!

6. Mike Milbury was thinking of you last night.
He said hockey was a physical game and that if people didn't like it they should watch tennis.

10. I want to see a Natinals/Twins World Series, and I was thinking of telling you not to watch them too
Then I realized that this is pretty much the advice everyone is taking with them already. :)

*ducks the punch from TZ*

12. Excellent work! I guess that makes you the zero-th man, or something.
Hope you have something non-hockey-watching-like planned for tomorrow... :)

13. I've cut out watching all sports during the games on the off chance a ticker comes
across the screen with a score update!
