OH CRAP!

Well i was all on about this team actually having a chance (yeah i know like hell freezing over). I was even admitting that i might actually help fix the broken wheel on the bandwagon. It occurs to me however that i am just self delusional. I think its a case of applying perverted reverse psychology. Tell myself often enough and write it often enough that the Habs won't make the playoffs and they might actually make it. Well with three games left against the number one team in the east, the number 8 team in the east and the number 6 team. Things are not looking to positive. Maybe i should apply more psychology. Were down two crucial defencemen. Schneider it could be argued brings value primarily and only to the power play. Markov brings it all. Yes i know in the last playoffs he went missing in action like a soldier in Iraq's Republican Guard. Just the same he is an integral part of the team D and without him things are going to be tough. The offence was on fire against questionable defences but against Ottawa they has 21 shots. If the playoffs are in the horizon they could be shorter then a flight between Ottawa and Montreal.

We'll get to see Avery tonight and that always proves to be entertaining especially if he is on about sloppy seconds and chicken and fish. No doubt he'll be a factor tonight.








What the hell was Sid " he'll never be Gretzky" Crosby thinking about dropping the gloves. Yeah yeah yeah i know all about the, "he is the captain" crap; but he went after a guy for a clean check. What is up with that? Markov gets put out of the game on a questionable hit. Imagine the flying Finn Koivu dropping the gloves and going at it. Wait you actually have to have heart to do that...so good on you Sid.






The U.S. announced Ron Wilson as coach of the men's Olympic team. Ha! Double Ha! Well maybe he can instill that winning attitude into the Olympic team much like he has done for the Leafs. Well one less team to worry about in 2010. There won't be any miracles on ice in Vancouver.




The Masters gets underway on Thursday. Yeah i know...Tiger just won at Bayhill, but you know what? Put your money on someone else its not his tournament this year. Look for one of the new breeds on the tour to make a run. Harrington's putter isn't working, lefty is well lefty, Weir is a "no way", the Kiwi from Fiji might hang around a little, the crazy Spanish Ass (you pick one) but i mean Sergio is going to be like Lefty...and win a major in 5 years from now. Here are a few guys to watch; Trevor Immelman last years champion, Aaron Baddeley, Ben Curtis, Luke Donald, Sean O'Hair. Keep your eye on Geoff Ogilvy.




The UNC TAR HEELS power house does it again for the second time in 6 years for Roy Williams and the fifth National Championship. What can you say the school is clearly establishing itself as a march madness contender every year.









Major league Baseball (steroid free) yeah right. Got underway this year. As every other year look for the same old teams to be battling it out. Regardless we'll get over kill of the Rex Soxs and Yankees, the Mets, Cubs, Pirates, the Dodgers and Padres. What was it James Earl Jones said about baseball..oh yes, People will come, Ray.The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It's been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt, and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game, is a part of our past, Ray. It reminds us of all that once was good, and it could be again. Ohhhhhhhh, people will come, Ray. People will most definitely come.

Well people its baseball season again....if you pump it up with steroids it will fly..... over the wall!
