February has one too many R's.

Greetings,
Due to a fluke in scheduling, I will have to miss watching the Super Bowl. That's the bad news. The good news is, if my team (the Steelers) stinks up the joint, I won't have to suffer through it.
If they win, I'm guessing ESPN will highlight (ad nauseum) every significant play, so I can still jump up and down, and shout at the television.
GO STEELERS!!

Revenge!

With less than a minute left in regulation, and the Rangers down by a goal...
Rucchin wins the faceoff, kicks the puck back to Straka, who passes it over to Rucinsky, who takes a slapshot that gets tipped in the slot by Nylander, finally deflecting off of Sykora's helmet and into the net. Just the way Coach Renney drew it up.
Oh Baby!!
Jagr then puts in a little overtime, with a one-timer to win the game for the Rangers.
Jagr Puts In Some Overtime
YAY!
So, this is what 1st place feels like.

It's My Birthday,

and the Rangers gave me an early present by pasting the Pens (yet again) last night 3-1.
YAY!!
Rangers 'outpoint' Pens

Now, if Benji's Buffalo Sabres can beat the Flyers, and if the Rangers beat the fishsticks on Long Island, the Blueshirts will move back into first place.
That's a lot to ask, but it's my frelling birthday, so there!
Rangers vs. Isles

Let's Go Rangers!!
