a love letter to the st.louis blues

dear gateway city blues:

i just wanted to write you a really quick note to say thank you for beating the detroit redwings tonight, it was really helpful since my team didn't bother to get any points today....

i'm not gonna lie ---i was way happier with your score mid-way through the third but apparently you like to keep things interesting and let the badguys tie it all up before regulation's final buzzer. because i ate all of the delicious snacks at scottrade in section 170 that one time, tonight i was really pulling for that dude with the sad eyes and the pronger jersey who sat infront of me... i just know he jumped out of his chair when z'berg missed in the wings' final shootout attempt.

even though chris mason went into the game tonight with a GAA for the week over 11 (i've got him in my fantasy pool and MAN did he look bad last night), i knew he'd pull it together. not to mention that two of the guys on your team have the most fun names to yell really loud (future captain, tj OSHIE and d-man carrlooooooooo COLAIACOVO !!!) so i'm sure the fans were whoopin' it up at the end, there.

anyways, i sincerely appreciate the effort.... don't get any bright ideas, though. i see you in the rearview, there.... if you start winning too much, we're dead.

yours,
wi.

No word of a lie, I was going to write a love letter involving the flames too, for Domebeers.com. You mind reading SOB! Were you inspired by Reggie Millers love letter to his jump shot like I was?

Futhermore, I think Peter Loubardias should be fired

azr:
you're new around these parts so it's totally understandable that you don't "know." i'm not a mindreader and it wasn't reggie miller... i was inspired be my own previous loveletters of the past two or three years, found here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, and my favorite (a love letter to gio, dated november 08) here...

just sayin'. :P

Man, the Blues are my second favorite team in the West. I would be a-okay with them making the post-season over the Flames if it meant Sutter got fired. My frustration has finally hit THAT level.

Also, no blog roll yet AZR? Can't say I'm surprised.

I dont know if anyone has mentioned this but the flames need to go 14-8 in order to squeek in to the second season. And if they finish 7th or 8th they will face sj or chi.....

sobering, shep. thanks for the cold water in the face. ;)

i don't even care anymore. i mean, i DO but i don't see this team as a cup winner. i'm officially a sharks fan cause i'd love to see your boy wallin win one more. 'course, the olympic curse is bound to knock them out early, too.

hey, shep ---what are you going to florida for ?
