I am a disfranchised Hartford Whalers fan who loves great goaltending. Marty's my boy... guess I'm a Devs fan by proxy.

Don't get yourself down.  With Boston sports we all have huge ups and downs and there are not too many in between since if you don't make the playoffs in a season in Boston it s a huge disappointment.  The Celts and Bruins will turn it around eventually.  Boston has some of the greatest fans n the world and no matter what we never switch.  We stand by our teams through the thick and thin.  If you want to hear how Boston fans really feel tune into Sports Radio 850 AM WEEI.  The best sports station n the region and the best I have heard throughout the country.  I am a little biased though being from the Boston area myself.

Nope, I dont like basketball at all...I just dont see the challenge in it...there are more people that can easily play that game second to volleyball... 3rd to soccer...The toughest sport is hockey..I will root for Nash and the Suns just cause Nash is Canadian like me

Hockey all the way!! \n\nIn basketball they score almost every time up and down the court, its like a game for people with ADD.  And even the BIGGEST play in basketball is still only worth ANOTHER 2 or 3 points... <yawn>  Lately basketball(pro) has turned into a beauty contest, instead of a team sport.  and 6 Fouls?  gimme a break.  The last 2 minutes of watching men play bumpass takes 20 minutes to watch.\n\nIn hockey they have to work for every single goal, and without a team effort you would fail miserably. (no 81 points by a single player here)  Hockey is much more physically demanding.  Both sports are bothered by inconsistant calls by the refs that hurt the game though.\n\nIf you are talking about playing yourself, whatever you enjoy is best!

Wish we were , our boys came home about 2 months ago all excited about the oilers (actually I think they were calling them the gas team , they are 10 & 7 ) , it would be a great experence for them .  We live in a small town in Northern Ont, so I guess it will be the T.V and popcorn for us. As our 3 yr old says : go guys go !!!!!

Two boys are playing hockey on a frozen pond in Alberta, when one of the boys is attacked by a crazed Rottweiler. Thinking quickly, the other boy takes his hockey stick, shoves it under the dog's collar, twists it and breaks the dog's neck, saving his friend. A reporter walking by sees the incident, and rushes over to interview the boy.  \n"Young Flames Fan Saves Friend From Vicious Animal" he starts writing in his notebook. "But I'm not a Flames Fan" the little hero replies. "Sorry,but as we are in Alberta, I just assumed you were" says the reporter and he starts writing again"Oilers Fan Rescues Friend From Horrific Attack".  "I'm not an Oilers fan either" the boy says. "Oh, I assumed that everone in Alberta was either a Flames or Oilers fan said the reporter "What team do you cheers for?  "I am a Maple Leaf fan" the boy replies. The reporter starts a new page in his notebook and writes:\n\nLittle ******  from Ontario Kills Beloved Family Pet:.\n\n\nGo Pens  Go

There are some great skills programs at the Foxboro Sports Center.  Check out foxborosportscenter.com.\n\nHowever, "inexpensive" and "hockey" are pretty much mutually exclusive terms. lol

No, but if you think about it, Basketball should be in the winter games.  It was invented as a sport for the winter, its season beings in November, peeks in Feb-March and ends before the summer.  And the Hockey All-star game belongs where it is, it provides a needed break, and a chance to retool for a playoff push.  The NFL wishes it could do its allstar game before the end of the season

FALSE - There is no local support available for Bridgeport to even make it into the NBA. There are much larger markets that will secure a spot in the league before your town. In terms of sponsor and endorsements can they generate enough to keep a franchise a float? Do you have an arena that is NBA ready? Do you have an airport for team charters? Hows the rest of your infastructure to accomodate TV demands etc...\n\nIt's always nice to think of a team in your town but in this case I do believe it is not reality.

OK to the REAL story we aren't sure right now. The Gaming Board is appearently going to decide on June 2nd. Anyway Pittsburgh First is trying to convince them to give the license to Isle of Capari. It isn't guaranteed though as I believe 2 others are trying for it. Gov. Rendell though has claimed to have a plan set up so that Pittsburgh will get a new arena regardless. I don't think the Penguins ever gave an offical responce to that. They first said they hadn't seen the propsal to go over it and make sure the money is promised and I don't think they ever went from there. Anyway if you are in Pennsylvania I would suggest going to the Penguins homepage and find a thing with Pittsbugh First for the address to write to the gaming board at.

I could be wrong, but I seem to remember the Saint Clair Shores arena used to have a rink set up in the summer outside with boards and everything. I know its not by your house but it would be worth the drive if its still up.

Actually, I have a story that might interest you. It concerns my Buffalo Sabres (who else?) and dates back to my freshman year at college. In taking a course in Public Relations I was given the opportunity to do an internship with the PR director of the Buffalo-based company that, ironically, owns the rival Boston Bruins (a Sabres nemesis but not in recent years because the Bruins suck! lol). As part of this program I was invited to meet with the PR director of the Sabres and follow him through a "day in the life" doing his job.\n\nIt was a very cool experience for a lifetime Sabres fan as I got to meet a bunch of players, both former and current, as well as several high-ranking team officials. I had access to parts of the building (this was the old Aud, btw, not the new HSBC Arena) I'd never been in before despite having been there so many times in my life. I watched that night's hockey game (we whipped the visiting Vancouver Canucks) from the press box, which was a real treat. During the course of the evening I also met several officials from other NHL clubs, including the former head coach of the Stanley Cup champion Calgary Flames, Terry Crisp. He was a really nice guy and spent time discussing a whole range of hockey matters with me, which I thought was pretty cool. \n\nAfter the game I went in with the media to conduct player interviews in the team dressing room and then it was off to do the press conference with then head coach (and former player and childhood hero) Rick Dudley. He was his usual quiet but thoughtful self and even waited around to answer this humble student's questions, as well as that of the real media. I was pretty chuffed by that! ;)\n\nAll in all, it was a really great learning experience and, as a Sabres fan, just a whole hell of a lot of fun! That whole PR course and internship was extremely interesting and worthwhile but that day and night hanging out with the Buffalo Sabres organization was my favourite part of all the instruction I undertook. Just a great experience and a memory I'll always cherish. Thanks for asking, Moon! :)
