  1. Yeah, and why are there so many Raiders fans at Chiefs home games? And why would I feel a board about Pattaya, Thailand is the place to pose this question?
  2. Therein lies the problem with verbally sparring with you, Obsession: I always have to explain everything to you. Who is "Yoy"? Some bargirl who turned you down because you have the stench of haggis about you? I've gotten my ass kicked? We must have different definitions of "ass-kicking", not surprising since I don't believe Scotland has done any "ass-kicking" since the Battle of Stirling Bridge.
  3. I think if you look at the replay you'll see Leighton gave up the corner a little too soon. I think he expected Kane to take the puck behind the net, so he shifted to his left a little too soon and Kane slipped it in under his legs. I agree it was a tough angle, but Leighton missed the play. Then again the Flyers wouldn't have made it as far as they did without Leighton.
  4. I think it's ok to hate a sport. The question is: Is you hatred based on ignorance or knowledge?
  5. It wasn't exactly a bolt of lightning. Leighton should have stopped it. Like I said above, the element of surprise is what made that goal. In Leighton's defense I believe that was his first home loss of the season. Came at sort of a bad time, but he still had a great post season for a number two goalie.
  6. Just watched the highlights. Kane's goal was a little soft, I think it just surprised Leighton. No one was expecting a shot there. I don't blame Leighton, just an aggressive play by Kane. Great example of how coaching can change a series. When they shook up the lines after game 4 it got the Hawks out of their funk. Flyers deserve a lot of credit. They had an amazing run in the play-offs. They're partying hard on Rush Street tonight.
  7. Somewhere, Stan Mikita is knocking back a cold one. The Blackhawks didn't want their Cup-less streak to reach 50, so they beat the Flyers in game 6 in Philly and hoisted their first Stanley Cup in 49 years. Someone needs to pencil in "2010". Not a classic, but still a pretty good series.
  8. See what happens when I show respect towards soccer fans?
  9. Oh really? Hmmm, I see the first post of this thread is a nice article about a soccer ref who is in great physical shape. Very interesting article. The second post is this one: You're the one who took the thread off topic with your rude comments about rounders and netball, neither of which had anything to do with the OP. Others might not realize it, but I of course realize that you love to refer to baseball and basketball as "rounders" and "netball". So you're the one who mentioned them, not I. Obsession - Wrong Again.
  10. I was drawn in by the thread title, but now that I see it's a "fan thread" I will respectfully supress any smart ass comments . . . honest.
  11. Not looking good for your "inevitability" there Joe. Chicago made some adjustments and shut down Pronger in game 5, and Dustin Byfuglien (hockey has the best names ) put two in the back of the net. The mojo is swinging back and forth in this series. Which way will it swing in game 6?
  12. Since you don't even know whether the "1" refers to a game or a home run, how can you speculate on the excitement of the game? Thanks for boosting my argument that soccer fans know nothing about the US sports they so love to criticize. Of course you don't do statistics, they might reveal what a crappy sport you follow.
  13. Well, if he "got a perfect 11 opponents out", that would mean he pitched 3 and 2/3 innings. I love it when soccer fans try to talk US sports.
  14. Would that be "E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial" ? I saw it the day it opened, 10 AM showing. Had me in tears too.
  15. Chicago almost came back in the third period, but the Flyers held on to even the series at 2 games a piece. There is joy on the streets of Philadelphia today.
  16. Nice OT win for the Flyers. That disallowed goal really danced along the goal line. Love the view from that camera in the rafters.
  17. Not that I'm trying to be picky or anything, but The Mook answered an actor with an actor.
  18. Can't miss the opportunity to name another Cohen Bros favorite The Big Lebowski
  19. One of my favorite movies Miller's Crossing "What's the rumpus?"
