(That reminds me when we got an exchange to Waiohai. I asked TUGgers, "how do you pronounce that anyway?" And got the answer: "Pair-Oh-Dice." I guess it fits anywhere in Hawaii.) :D

I have often tried to pronounce it myself. Going off of the basic principle of the language I come up with Wah-e-oh-ha-e. Anyone know if this is right?
 
good evening

Congrats Sue!!! The B's were better... not much better but better none the less..

To my mind only Boston advances, but both teams are winners!!!

The nutty media makes the team with fewer points "losers" but nothing could be further from the truth...

I am a proud fan...

Now, I root for the B's....Go Bruins!!!!
will post from KL....

To infinity and beyond!!!

They told me, "Why Oh High." Don't know if that's right but nobody laughed at me when I said it there. :eek:
 
Enjoy your vacation. :D Waiohai is nice and so is Kauai and the other Islands. I hope that you'll have a nice unit for your special occasion. :cool:
 
All,

That was (yet another!!!) exciting hockey game -- this has been a great thread and lots of fun to participate in -- now we have to morph it over to support the Bruins in the Finals.

The Bolts put on an impressive performance, but at the end, the small margin of one goal was enough to put the Bruins into the Stanley Cup. But very very very exciting up until the very end...

Congrats to SueDonJ and all the good Bruins fans -- onto the Finals, and I'll be hoping for Bruins victories now.....

Best to all,

Greg
 
What a game! Did anyone see the Bruins lose a heartbreaker to the Canucks? Tie game at 0-0 until the final minutes (seconds?!).

Each goalie had many many great saves -- and then the Canucks pushed across with 18 seconds to go to score the winning goal -- and the local joint went wild.

Congrats to the Canucks on a terrific win -- and here's hoping that the Bruins can rally from the tough loss to tie the Series 1-1.

Best to all,

Greg
 
(I'm a little confused with playoff threads here and in the Lounge - how did I miss that one before now?!)

What a great game but a heartbreaker for sure. If you like omens, yesterday was the first time since 1972 that Massachusetts got hit by a tornado. :D
 
And for something completely different ... Boston statues decked out in Bruins gear. :hysterical: We sure do love our playoffs - during yesterday's day game at Fenway there was a "Good Luck, Bruins!" sign on the backstop, Rene Rancourt sang the National Anthem, and the Bruins/Canucks have been slotted into the scoreboard on the Green Monster.
 
Just wanted to make sure the TUGging world was watching -- and knows that Game 7 is coming in the Stanley Cup Finals.

Good luck to SueDonJ's Bruins in the upcoming battle -- it promises to be a good one! Maybe Schilling can send them some good luck socks.....

(And Puck, I may be getting that Hockey premium channel you were telling me about for next year......)

Best to all,

Greg

Good evening...


I will be watching too!

Go B's

NHL centre ice package is the best $149 you will spend all year. especially if you are in a market without NHL hockey. You may be in the Kings/Ducks catchment area!
 
good evening

Congrats to SueDon and the B's...

well done

I think that my lightning gave the B's more of a struggle than the Canucks!!!

I would have to agree. With all the hype leading up to game 7, it was kind of a let down.

Now we look to next year, not for the Canucks, but rather the Leafs.

Such a good season for Vancouver.... until now. What a shame to end up like this. Congrats to Bruins and its tuggers fans.
 
Congrats to SueDonJ and all the Bruins fans -- a great series and a satisfying finish (if you're rooting for the Bruins, that is)!!

And great videos in this thread too......

Best to all,

Greg


Now that it's officially off-season.....Go Bolts!!!! (both the football and hockey ones)

Good evening

I dusted this thread out of mothballs...

4 years ago today GregT started this one... Basically, the story recap. Bolts were down 3 games to 1 against Penguins. Game was on a Saturday afternoon, and I was stuck at work. Everyone was put on double secret diversion as I had the game on DVR. Of course Greg had no idea and reported the Bolts 8-2 win immediately... It was a great surprise..

Tonight a mini-miracle in Motown... Bolts down 2-0 with 5 minutes to go...trying hard but frustrated by a really good Wings team. Then the triplets (9,18,86) strike not once but twice within 77 seconds to tie it up, Off to OT where Vic Hedman leads a 3-1 jailbreak into Red Wing zone. Main triplet #9 buries the winner and series tied at 2-2.

Back to Amalie Arena for game 5. This thing is just starting!!!

Puck, I love it -- time to pull out the jersey!

Go Bolts!
 
Enjoy the rest of the game Puck.

I am here at MOC watching the Golden State Warriors. They just came back from 20 down to tie it with a 3 pointer to take it to OT. Amazing game!

I hope both the Bolts and Warriors pull them out.

Mike
 
good morning

The Warriors are a lot like the Bolts. A little followed franchise doing great things!!! Curry is a "beast" Lights out shooter... A nice story. Kerr made a great move giving up Knicks offer for the Warriors...

Go Warriors... I can root for that bunch. They seem to play the right way!!!
 
Meanwhile the Blues have started playing like a Stanley Cup team again...

Puck,

Good reading and good references -- thanks for pointing me in the right direction!!

Giuliani was calling Messier "Mr. June" after this series!?! Hoping for a repeat -- any guarantees going on right now?

Go Bolts! (the hockey ones, this time).

Best,

Greg


Here's a memory for you...a great one....one of the greatest.....????

I never get tired of watching that clip.

This was a really fun thread, I'm glad it was resurrected (and that the Bolts are competing!)
 
good morning...

It's not looking so good for the Bolts...

Wings seem to be bigger, stronger and faster at this time. Lightning face win or go home scenario at the "Joe" Monday night. I am going to root them on and have confidence that my team can turn this around!!!

Go Bolts
 
good evening...

Bolts come through with their best and most important effort of the season...

Bolts win 5-2 at the "Joe"

Best 2 words in sports....

Game 7....
