Tank Tattle
ok, so i'm at the sharks .vs. preds game tonight and boy is our section going downhill. first there is a chick a row in front of us and a few seats to the left. she seems to be spending alot of time with her mobile phone in her hand. she was playing eff'ing tetris. now tetris is a great game, but it seems to me it would have been smarter (and cheaper) to have stayed home to play. dearie... put the phone away and watch the game -- the sharks don't suck anymore. it's ok to open your eyes.
the seats behind me must have some special drugs in them. every game it is different people, all equally as ignorant and love to chatter all game long. apparently it was two fellas with one woman tonight. she seemed to know her stuff, but the guys were clueless. aside from a lack of hockey knowledge, they seemed to be anatomy challenged as well. while prattling on about baseball, one guy says to the other -- "yeah, but [whoever it was] tore his aclu and was out for most of last season". tore an aclu huh? oh the visions that conjurs up. i almost managed not to laugh aloud.
a little about the game.... damn it if the ice doesn't seem to be slanted to the other side. all the friggin' action was on the other end. the score was 5-2 and six goals were scored on the other end. the smith / stevenson fight was near by -- way to go smitty! and the mclaren highlight reel hit... wow! talk about closing a gap quick and letting someone have it.
nils ekman got the first star of the game, much deserved, and when he came out for his quick skate, unlike most players that do what amounts to a bad pirouette with their stick held high -- nils skates straight out and takes a couple bows with the biggest smile on his face. heh! he seems quite the character.
