Tonight's Combination DU Insomniac/Hockey Thread (4 May)

[strategery blunder]

Detroit Wrong Wings and Calgary Flames are in sudden death overtime. (I know that's redundant, but not all Insomniac DUers are hockey junkies.) Will update when someone scores, I hope it's Calgary.

3 May Insomniac Thread

Check-in time midnight local, or 1 am for those of you in EST. The Chair checks in at midnight CST.

The new RSS feed is great! Woo hoo! I doubt you'll see this, but thanks, elad.:)

Edit: Clarification for mods: This thread is not intended as a dupe. I just noticed the other hockey thread. After the game ends, things will die down and it will revert to socializing among insomniacs (its normal purpose:)).

FLAMES WIN! WOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1. Exactly 12:00 AM here in MN.

Go Flames!

[strategery blunder]

2. Second your choice of teams

:hi:

[Angelus]

3. Yes...Detroit is evil!

[youngred]

4. Screw the Flames

I love their team, love to see them do well....just not against my Wings

[strategery blunder]

5. The Wings are PURE EVIL!!!!! (nt)

Edit: Did you see Hatcher's massive elbowing late in the first? Should have been a double minor at least. You got lucky.

[youngred]

I disconcur

they are the best team in hockey (and I've been a wings fan since before I could talk and before they could win)

[strategery blunder]

10. In other words, you are regurgitating your parents' beliefs

in this case, those regarding hockey.

Now, DID YOU SEE THE EVILNESS OF HATCHER OR NOT?

[youngred]

12. Hatcher yes

and Hull too. I wish they weren't on my team, but that won't change my belief.

Actually I'm not. My parents are both hockey fans but non-affiliated (Dad likes the Leafs). However, I was born and became a Hockey fan in the town of Detroit's former farm team so therefore I grew up with them.

[strategery blunder]

13. And Chelios, but not as bad as Hatcher or Hull.

There's some bad blood between Chelios and I because of the trade. (Former Hawks fan, but I moved and don't really follow them much anymore.)

[youngred]

14. I like Chelly

liked him more as a Hawk, he will always be a hawk to me. But I'm glad to see him helping my team.

Don't even get me started on Bloody Hasek

[strategery blunder]

17. WOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

See ya in fall:evilgrin:

[youngred]

19. maybe....if there is a league

dammit

[strategery blunder]

22. Don't remind me...

:grr:::mad::argh:

[Angelus]

6. VERY EVIL!

They're the epitome of evil!

[youngred]

7. Bah

Not as evil as the Avalanche

[Angelus]

9. True...

I don't like the Avalanche.

[bubblesby2002]

20. Too true

[bubblesby2002]

8. I have decided to root for Calgary

but I warn you this could kill their chances. But after Hatcher's hit on Lombardi and after looking in Gelinas' eyes I decided that I was going for the Flames

[BlackVelvetElvis]

11. You guys sound like you are enjoying yourselves

Sounds like an incredible game. I hope its one for the ages!

[LastKnight]

15. 12:21 CST, LK checks in

[youngred]

DAMMIT FUCK FUCK SHITTTING MOTHER KNOCKER.

Well played Calgary and good luck in the next round (you will be whom I root for now).

[strategery blunder]

21. Hey yongred, I have some entertaining material for you

My discussion with another Red Wings fan

Ah yes, the St. Louis/Detroit rivalry goes deep. You got to play a few more games but still fell short.:evilgrin:

[strategery blunder]

23. Kick for insomniacs everywhere

:kick:

[strategery blunder]

24. You insomniacs can crawl out of your caves now (nt)

[strategery blunder]

25. Insomniacs, insomniacs, wherefore art thou? (nt)

[strategery blunder]

26. *cough* (nt)

[strategery blunder]

27. Kick for ultra-insomniacs

:kick:

[Champ]

28. Checking in

This NBA Playoffs wait is bugging me, I'd to wait over a week for my Pacers to get back in action. I believe they play this Thursday.

[slinkerwink]

29. here!

soo tired.

[Frederic Bastiat]

30. Next losers: The Maple Laffs!

Congratulations to the Flames!

[noonwitch]

31. I'm a Wings fan, but Congratualations, Flames!

Your team played very well. The Wings just couldn't seem to get going.

Poor Steve Yzerman-that injury looked so painful on Saturday. I hope that this isn't a career-ender.

[drumwolf]

32. actually, the next losers will be the Avs!

Yeah, my Sharks slipped after taking a 3-0 lead, but I'm confident they'll finish the job tonite.

:)
