It started in the morning out here, I almost slept thru it, almost…Go Habs Go!!
I know, they should all take place between midnight and 7am.
I love Sunday afternoon games! You can have a number of beers but still have time to detox before bed so you don’t feel crappy on Monday morning AND what else is there to do on a Sunday afternoon?
Why do people who work for a living, make a big deal about millionairs that play a game ? Why do you fucking care if millionair so & so gets a goal or not. Is it going to help feed you ? pay your bills ? will it help a little cancer patient in hospital ? no its a fucking game & if you had any brains at all, you’d be out playing the game yourself, getting some exercise instead of wasting your damn time, stuffing your face & cheering your heads off when one overpaid bozo manages to score a point on some other overpaid wingnut. All you losers who are so enthralled by all these stupid professional sports teams really need to get a damn life & if you really love a game learn to fucking play it & then DO SO !
(armchair fucking sport experts piss me off !Watching someone else do something will never equal the satisfaction of doing it yourself.)
Ask any Montreal Canadians’ fan “What does Habs mean?” and they don’t know.
But I’ve heard the C H on the jersey stands for “Center H’ice”
Firstly, Habs is short for Les Habitants.
Secondly, More, who says I didn’t play squash for 1.5 hours and then go for a 5 km jog before I settled in to watch the game on Sunday. Why does spending a couple of hours on my couch mean that I’m not active during the other hours of the day.
What do you do to relax? Do you watch TV? I could say to you: who the fuck cares about the actors who get paid millions of dollars to act out your stories? Does it help feed you? Does it pay your bills?
Don’t watch TV? Do you read? Does that help pay your bills?
Why is it when it comes to watching sports, there’s always one person who has to say “sports don’t matter!” Is this some sort of revelation? I don’t think there’s anyone deluded enough to think that the outcome of this year’s playoffs is going to have any affect on the world outside of hockey.
News flash: you can play hockey and then go home and watch hockey. It’s not as if watching it naturally excludes you from also being an active participant.
Kids start playing hockey because they want to be like their favourite players that they see on tv.
I agree with jennier. Everyone needs a hero – musician, actor, athlete… They all excel at their chosen skill, and those who appreciate it pay for it by buying the t-shirt, going to the games or buying the products the advertisers are selling. So relax. You don’t like it, don’t watch it.
And I missed the game too, too busy enjoying the sunshine. Arg. I’ll see the next game though – Go Pens!
The NHL has been scheduling afternoon games on Sunday for at least 15 years now, ever since they started this focus on the US TV market. Where have you been OP?
yeah, it’s pretty much a given that if a game is on sunday, it’s in the afternoon.
Same even with our mooseheads… it’s just how it’s done.
I BARELY watch any hockey at all and I know that.
jennier,I played hockey as a kid, bcause it was fun & i never had a hero or ‘special team’, I also don’t have TV.
I have no reception, I have no cable & I have no satilite dish…I have to constantly tell the providers of my High Speed Internet that I don’t want their bundle packages of any kind…not even for free trial 3 month periods, thank you very much.
Also, unlike you poor braindead losers. I don’t have a TV or Movie hero, nor do I want one. Its pretty damn hard to be into TV when I don’t even get the signal for the 3 local stations that I hear broadcast for free & thanks for asking…I don’t want to receive the damn things anyway& I’m certainly not going to pay for TV signal when the providers are already paid by advertisers to send out the signal -only a fucking moron would pay for something that has already been paid for by someone else & gives 100% validation to the 2 things that are sure on this planet,1- there’s a sucker born every minute & 2-the right salesmen can sell ice cubes to eskimo’s (& yes i know the politically correct term is Innu) if the customer is gullible enough & obviously you all are !
I don’t need fake people, or someone who can put a ball/puck etc in a net as a hero. Thanks anyway though. There’s lots of other ways to relax..like bitching here for example. Getting anonymous people pissed at you, that’s entertainment IMO. Reading a book, working in my Garden, taking my grandbaby for the day , just goin gfor a walk in the woods with a camera…good relaxing healthy alternatives to turning your brain off to be entertained by over paid bimbo’s & bozo’s. Who’s real claim to fame are they are doing something you’d like to do but are too busy watching others do,than to actually go do it for yourself.
In closing i would like to point out as someone who works in the entertainment business, there are lots of wonderful people who work in that industry as well as many assholes. Worshipping any of them is embecillic at best & moronic behaviour (like playoff sports devotion) just furthers my belief that most of society deserves to be ripped off by big business’s like sports companies & cable networks, you’ve shut your brain off & you deserve what you get. ~:)
Sometimes I wish More was Less…
More, hockey is exciting to watch. I grew up with 3 channels (4 if you count french) and Saturday nights in the winter were all about watching the game. It’s a habit you just can’t get out of. And yeah the guys may get paid a lot, but they’re talented! You just can’t get the excitement of a goaltender like Halak or Luongo anywhere else.
And yeah, OP, they frequently have games on Sunday afternoons. QMJHL has ’em Sunday afternoons too, as I’m sure AHL still does.
Sunday afternoon in the US is the time most people watch sports. Why do you think the NFL schedules the vast majority of their games during that time?
More sounds like a fun guy… Who fucking care who choses to watch what you fucking wing-nut? watching hockey makes me a “poor braindead loser”?? Just becuse you chose to be nut job and acctually judge people for watching sports, you really think your better? Your on a fucking web board posting insults like your typical internet tough guy. I doubt you would ever say that to anyone in person. You probably 300lbs in you mothers basment typing away. Enjoy!
More talks about fake people. Typical from a left wing, eco-friendly, hippy who has nothing better to do than blame the world’s problems on everyone else. Get a mother fucking life and stop complaining about everybody elses. Very tiring….
See, More? I just ignored the majority of your post, which to me was a rambling, brain dead, self promoting pile of horseshit…. Same as you are more than able to ignore folks who watch hockey. Get a life. And realize that people enjoy different entertainments… (typed as I’m watching the hockey game after my 10km run and a glass of wine…)
Wow the list of losers who come here just gets longer & ,longer
You guy’s need to get a life …OH NO !!!
Gotta go the hockey games starting L M F A O !!! ~:)
so it’s come to this…. with Princess Bitch gone, kay stepped up….
now kay’s gone and we’re onto More bashing…
I suppose it’s inevitable.
the circle of bitch.
Wow, I can now prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that More has some common sense, and BRoc and L0GiC are gargantuan fucking morons. Keep huffing jenkem, boys.
I was in a protest ball hockey game in Enfield on Saturday with Classified and his posse as the opposition and watched the game on Sunday.
I got the best of both worlds.
Then you must be a semi-gargantuan fucking moron according to Iehova, who by the way must have an egotistical god complex with that stupid screen name. It’s absolutely hilarious to see people like this spew their diatribe hatefulness at everyone. Must be a real pathetic way to live.
actors are useless human beings
go habs, fuck actors
No BRoc, I just like to attack people who instantly jump on the “left-wing” or “basement-dweller” bandwagon of insults. Keep it up, you’re on my naughty list now.
And it’s not a complex, my son. I am your god (small g, though.)
