What's red, white and blue, and plays golf in May?

The Flames?...wait, no blue. The Oilers?

[dlgood]

The Washington Capitals.

Sure. I hear hockey is somewhat popular in your town.

Yay! ....er, I mean, you have my sympathies, Dave. Canadians have been soooo ungracious lately. First there was the Olympic Gold Medal Game and now this. We're losing our "losing" reputation. ;-)

[dlgood]

This isn't about you, so we aren't really aware of your victory celebration. In DC, we are more concerned with Caps' history of playoff chokes. That and, what's up with Ovie not getting a big win this year?

I read this post last night and didn't know what you were referring to as I haven't been following the games. Then I went upstairs and saw what was on the tv.

Yikes.

[dlgood]

Yikes indeed. I actually put this post up when the game was still in the second period. I was pretty well prepped to accept another entry in my team's history of playoff disappointments as soon as they lost game 5. Does your husband follow the sport, or is he one of those Canadians who left primarily because he doesn't care about hockey?

[ann1962]

Oh no, he loves hockey and has been following along. I like it but I don't have the patience to watch that many games any more.

[dlgood]

Ah. Then he will understand (though possibly laugh at) my pain.

also the New York Rangers. :(

[dlgood]

Yes, but the Rangers weren't supposed to be good. Why must we always wet the bed?

[ralkana]

Awww. Sorry, man! :(
