Did the announcer

Accidently say number 10, Wojtek Wolski?

Ms. Tex

You thought I was mad when I said the Avs could reel off three staight after they lost to the Mild, no? Are we still doomed?

Positivity, my friend. We’re not out of the woods yet but at least the Avs are looking good and I’m having fun watching them.

It wasn’t a happy place. Maybe the should try this positivity thing? It seems to be working for us.

Stop by Battle of California and thank Earl Sleek for coining the positivity phrase. It was totally stolen from him.

Maybe it should be done more

Like after every Pens loss…then again that might bankrupt them.

I was thinking about heading up their for some Beau Jo’s tomorrow.

by InYoFace on Jan 10, 2009 3:39 PM MST to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Ugg. Beau jo's.

It’s not snowing. Vail pass got two feet, my hill got 2 inches. SADJHF*#$&*@. I’m not bitter. I swear. But honestly, I worked at beau jos for awhile for ski money, and I would never pay for that food. Ever. Its like casa bonita. Great when you’re a kid, not so good once your taste buds develop. The pizza shop across the street is OK though.
However, if you do go, please drink some of my beer that they have on tap. My real job thanks you.

by InYoFace on Jan 10, 2009 3:50 PM MST to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Well, I guess it’s not quite as bad as casa bonita (is anything?), but I’d still rather have piccis. We do have an excellent BBQ place in town, and a pretty good brewpub, if I may be so bold, but for some reason BJ’s gets all the people. Its that tradition and habit thing, just like AB, miller, and coors.

There's a place here

that dwarfs Casa Bonita in terms of terrible food.

Beau Jo's

I worked there in college in Colorado Springs.

The food’s ok. I didn’t like the sauce, as it was very very sweet. I don’t like Sweet sauce pizza (Pappa John’s I’m looking at you).

Some of their other sauces were pretty good, imo.

I hate to say it but

The Avs seem to have changed after Lappy got injured. It was like someone in the locker room said, “Here is a guy who is getting himself killed every night. Maybe we should play up to his expectations.”

He has incriminating pictures of them with some other than their wives/girlfriends. And we though it was Budaj sleeping around.

speaking of that, I keep seeing Altitude mention post-game analysis from Mark Rycroft. Is that THE Mark Rycroft?

I believe so

He was with them some last season, so I wouldn’t be surprised to see him this season.
