The flight attendants totally knew what we were all doing. As they did their final walk-through of the cabin they peeked over screens to catch the score and then kept on walking with nary a word. Uh…thankfully we didn’t die or something…? I dunno.

Thanks for the kudos!

I love this so much, Heather. I think there is something wrong with me for saying this, but I love it that you defied the inflight rules to watch OT.

Comment on Ovechkin to Skip All-Star Game: So What? by VeggieTart

I’m going to politely disagree with you on one point: Yes, Ovie’s hit was suspension worthy. He left his feet. Shit, he practically Air Jordaned. That’s charging no matter what. And while he may not have meant to, he did get a bit of Michalek’s head.

Here is what bothers me about it:

1) A few minutes later, Michalek hit headshotted Matt Hendricks into the boards, also a suspension-worthy hit. shit, he TARGETED Hendricks because he was mad about being crunched by Ovie. You suspend both or you don’t suspend either.

2) Shanahan brought up Ovie’s past history. I do believe that one’ssuspension history is expunged after 18 months clean. Ovie’s last suspension was in March 2010, 22 months ago. Shanahan should *not* have taken that into consideration, given that Ovie has kept his nose clean for almost two years. So, yes, both he and Michalek deserved one game not the three Ovie got or the zero Michalek got.

And I think all fans agree with his decision to skip the All Star Game. He’s suspended; shouldn’t that include the All-Star Game since it falls during that period? The league cannot suspend him and then ask him to bring his bad-boy self to Ottawa to suck up to people who hate him because he’s Alex fucking Ovechkin, the big bad Russian who plays for the big, bad Capitals. Fuck them. Had he been suspended ONE game, I would say he goes. But he fears he would be a distraction. Everyone would be yammering about his suspension. Let the other stars have their fun.

And good luck to Dennis Wideman!

He needs to just retire and start commentating or coaching. One big blow and he’ll be paralyzed. Not a great way to spend the rest of your life.

I thought he was going to the Jets. And in any case, you’ll be much better off with Daunte Culpepper. Or Akili Smith. Or Kyle Orton.

(sorry: by “you” I mean the Redskins, and not your beloved Bucs. who may well be beyond all help.)

That picture of Aaron Rodgers is ridiculous.

I forgot about everything else, except go Ravens. And Saints. And Aaron Rodgers’s agent, to scrub that from the internet.
