Don't Even Think About Calling This A Defense

Hey! What a complete and total shock!  A guy who’s nothing but a bonehead out on the ice said bonehead things on an uncensored talk radio show!  Geez, what is it with you people and attacking Cam Janssen?  Yes, he said some truly awkward things that the New Jersey Devils probably didn’t want attached to one of their players.  And yeah, it was uncomfortable to watch and listen to some of his jokes but you guys are really missing the genius moment in this interview.  I swear I’m not being sarcastic in any way with this last statement. Pinkie promise.

EPISODE 90: HOCKEY ARE #@$%ING DEAD

Your move, St. Louis Blues.

 

 

This week we don our black veils, not in honor of the new Stanley Cup champion L.A. Kings, but because the crushing melancholy of the off-season has officially crept upon us. Just kidding, this week we discuss what possible impact the original sunbelt franchise winning a Cup might have on hockey in California. Also, we discuss tinfoil hat-wearing fans, certain writers who love nothing more than to rain on hockey's parade, L.A. punk rock, AND America. No guest this week so it's just Peter and I rambling on.

Music Featured This Week:

(The Intro was) Coup D'etat by The Circle Jerks

New Dark Ages by Bad Religion

Devil's Dance Floor by Flogging Molly

Rise Above by Black Flag

I'm Not A Punk by Descendents

Your Team Is Out, How Do You Survive Bandwagoners?

Today I was accused of being overly sensitive, overly passionate, and way too concerned about sports, or really hockey.  As someone part of the Internet Generation, I find this laughable.  In addition to this site, I write/have written on the Calgary Flames, New York Rangers, Winnipeg Jets, Vancouver Canucks, Nashville Predators, and two general NHL sites.  To say that I'm accustomed to the anonymous taunts in an understatement.  I've been threatened, told off, laughed at, and informed that I am "whacked", all by anonymous comments.
