JUST BECAUSE

So I really have nothing to talk about in relation to the current Sabres, so what I am going to do is provide you with some good articles and videos, related to guys I love and love to hate.

But, if you don't have a ton of time to actually sit around and be completely unproductive all day, like I have the luxury of doing this morning, if you have to pick and choose what you watch, I suggest Blackhawks TV for your viewing pleasure. It's pretty much the best thing going these days.

Okay, are you ready? You sure?

Alright.


We'll start with Michael Ryan. The Schenedtady Gazette had a nice article about his surprise of getting an AHL All-Star nod. (Yes, this is for you, MJ, but I'm not so sure you'll appreciate it once you've reached the fourth paragraph... Unless that's you?)

This next one is a commentary from this morning's TBN, by Jerry Sullivan. Now, more often than not, I disagree with Sully, but I'll give him credit where it's due, and it's definitely due today. John Brownschidle, son of NHL-er Jack, is a senior at Buffalo's Canisius High School. What's so special about him? He's a cancer survivor.

I know it's not Christmastime anymore, but the Rochester Americans in this trainwreck is just fantastic. There's a blooper reel on the site, as well, which is always good.

Patrick Sharp: Sharp shooter? Or Sharp dressed man?

No way. Even Jonathan Toews knows that listening to him be mic'ed up is brutal.

No, actual Jon, listening to you and your teammates sing a song about the Blackhawks is brutal.

(Can you tell that I really enjoy Blackhawks TV??)

I adore Patrick Sharp and Adam Burish. Their cheeky shenanigans are fabulous. Ordering the boys breakfast? Soaking hotel rooms? Stealing bags? I just love guys who shamelessly act like they're twelve. What's worse is the team is encouraging it. No, really, I do love some good pranks.

The Carolina Hurricanes were told to make a dinosaur noise. Um... What?

Up close and personal with Steve Bernier? Okay, where do I sign up? Parts 1 and 2.

Oh, one more Blackhawks video. This one was on Sports Soup last night: Kris Versteeg filling in for Ludacris on Fergie's "Glamourous." Kris? Please keep your day job. Please.

And while we're at it? Sean Avery? Ummm, plays with dolls? Somehow, I'm not surprised. Please, Sean, if you know what's good for everyone, you won't come back to hockey, and you'll just go work at a doll store. (This video is edited a bit in some spots, as I'm sure you'll notice, but it's funny, nonetheless.)

I know!! That's why I went and found it. I took sick pleasure in watching that video...

Ha, Alix is my Big Bear enabler, not you too! She linked me to that up close and personal the other day. I basically sat at my desk and squealed for 10 minutes.

That's how I was when I saw the Versteeg bit on Sports Soup last night... I was dying. Literally, the first thing that came out of my mouth was "Kris Versteeg, where have you been all my life?"

Patrick Sharp in bed apparently half naked or all naked depending on his preferences? The Hockey Gods look down on me with their favor.

Patrick Sharp in bed

This is all I needed to see of this sentence. That's all that matters. The rest is just icing on the cake.

I don't think I can count the amount of hours I have wasted watching and re-watching videos on Blackhawks TV and Mouthpiece Sports, both are awesome.

I knew I should've stayed up for Sports Soup last night.

It makes me sick when I think about all the time I've spent watching these lovely boys act like idiots, as well as scour the internet looking for ridiculous pictures of Derek Roy. Oh... Wait... That's not all that hard to do...

I knew I should've stayed up for Sports Soup last night.

It's not always worth it, but last night definitely was.

Cari, its all your fault that I now watch Blackhawks videos and look up information on Burish/Sharp. Thank you for that!
Why can't anyone from the Sabres do this kind of stuff for Sabres TV?

I think I can live with myself. =]

My thoughts exactly. This is why I need to work for the Sabres. No one realizes how spectacular it would be if the guys did stuff like that.
