Detroit Red Wings

- I am heavily sleep deprived
- I am sick of the taste of Red Bull
- I am very grouchy
- I am really starting to hate my Playoff Beard, which gets thicker, faster, every year I get older
- I am happy to declare a new-found respect for the Phoenix Coyotes
- I am agreeing with the nomination of Bryzgalov for Vezina
- I am mistaken for a vagrant due to my beard and gaunt look today (I work in a hospital, where bums and the homeless are often wandering the corridors for shelter)
- I am still, underneath it all, really very happy
- I am struggling to show that right now
- I am facing more of these late night, sugar/caffeine fueled sessions
- I am indebted to the guys on the 3rd and 4th lines, who played out their skins
- I am always in awe of Nik Lidstrom, but more so after tonight
- I am drinking my coffee thick and black, for the first time ever
- I am in trouble with work for punching the coffee machine because it wasn’t coming out fast enough
- I am elated, but it’ll probably feel more like that tomorrow
- I am sleeping as soon as I get in from work
- I am through to the second round
- I am progressing in the playoffs
- I am the Detroit Red Wings
Editor’s Note: rockandrollnobody lives in the UK which means games are generally 8 hours ahead, so a 7PM PST puck drop is approx 3AM.
Oh that is harsh. At first I thought you just lived on the east coast. I thought you would have been happy with a 6:00PM west coast start for Thursday. Do you watch the games live? Do you have to subscribe to a hockey package in the UK? I remember I was in London during the NFL playoffs years back and had to watch the game at 1:00AM, and it was still tape delayed.
Good luck in the playoffs.
Yeah, I’ve had to buy a special US sports package. I record most, but the important ones I watch live.
I feel for you my friend and admire you cause there is no way I can stay up till 3 to watch my Canucks. Thank god for Sky + and ESPN America or the ESPN player. Of course the problem for me is when I record the games I often find out the score from Twitter etc before I watch the game.At least that way I don’t feel half dead like you. Lol
I am…incredibly disappointed
I am…elated we had such a good season
I am…smart enough to know when we were outplayed
Congrats!
