Stanley Cup Finals v St. Louis

Image
Game 7 L 4-1 Wednesday, 6/12/2019. 6:31 PM. Breathe everyone. Breathe. Middle of the 8th for the Red Sox. Score tied at 3. Lord give us the strength. I love you so much Bruins. I am prepared for whatever the Good Lord decides on.  Tonight....Game 7 in Boston: Bruins vs. St. Louis vs. NHL vs. gambling fixers vs. Lord Stanley. I'm rooting for the Bruins and Lord Stanley. Insert a violence quote here because it's going to be a bleeping bloodbath. Kevan Miller is taking copious notes. It's on, assholes. Fuck shit up!  (6/14/2019 edit: I really thought there was going to be a lot more fighting.) 12:06 AM Thursday, 6/13/2019. May I suggest reading "Learning to Tell Time with Puppies and Kittens" by Eustacia Moldovo and Patricia J. Murphy. I was reading that book as the third period timer winded down to someone I will introduce to you soon. "Make Way for Ducklings" by Robert McCloskey always cheers me up and I love the artwork. Yes, they are toddler books. ...

"We’re concentrated on the Boston Bruins winning a Stanley Cup. With this group of brothers we’ve created here, we’re all in for our team, and whoever the opponent is, we’re gonna face them head on." - David Backes Or as I like to refer to him as the superhero of animals. He's basically St. Francis out there. "How Bruins got to 2019 Stanley Cup Final"  Nineteen-game point streak, Marchand's best NHL season helped Boston win Eastern Conference by Jon Lane. On to St. Louis. 5/26/2019. Uh, worried. Stanley Cup Media Day: "This day is part of it all, part of the excitement. The big thing is it means we're starting up tomorrow." - Brad Marchand "You just try to keep your nerves as calm as possible. Experience helps on that...Trying to guide the younger guys beforehand that they know what to expect and not to get too emotional...Just be ready to play." - T uukka Rask "I'm going to give it everything in the world that...

We're talking scrimmage. Word. No one had numbers on their sweaters. DeBrusk started off on the black sweater team and then switched to the white sweater team. David Krejčí has a fever and didn't play. Get Well, Krej. How did he get sick from practice in the morning to scrimmage? Germs, you are on the list. Marshy ran into Cli...

Eastern Conference Finals v. Carolina

Game 4 W, 4-0 Thursday, 5/16/2019. 7 PM EDT. It ain't going to be easy but who wants easy? Go get 'um, Men. I hope DeBrusk has a bobblehead with his trapper hat on. I'm going to sketch him with the hat, cans of soda, and missing teeth. What would be my Marchand drawing? Pizza slice, in the penalty box, with a guitar. When he is waving the "flag" in the penalty box? Him sitting on an opponent's back playing a guitar? Wags, are you heavily medicated at this moment? More than usual? I think he's watching reruns of GOT. Depressed.  Speaking of being depressed. Don't watch the documentary heroin in Cape Cod or whatever the title was called. It made me more depressed. I will look up the correct title later... Heroin: Cape Cod, USA. I think Jaws, the movie, is a metaphor for the heroin bomb destroying New England. We are going to need more air canisters. Back to the game. Come what may I am ready and I hope you are, too.  Godspeed. Please score, Marshy. ...

Marchand and the pitchforks

"It's something we'll address. We always do. We talk to all our players when we have situations that arise that become a little more public than we would like." - GM Don Sweeney on Marchand. On the record, Marchand is a dick. Off the record, Marchand is a dick. That is the freemarchy statement concerning..... what did he do now?  What incident is this? He's a lovable prick, too. A talented hockey player. God blessed him with a certain set of skills. Don't worry darling, they will ship him off to Seattle as fast as you figure out how to spell kraken. It's perfect. He is a kraken. You build up the Seattle and Vancouver rivalry. "If you build it he will come". People will come in more than one way. Do you recall the story about Jimmy Butler in 2018? Butler played with the bench players and ran the table on the starters. That is exactly what Marsh will do in Seattle. God willing if he is healthy enough to do so. Even if he isn't healthy, he wil...
