Mike's Miscellany™ Vol. IX - Playoff Edition!!

I will do what I can but #3 is out. After being gone for over 7 months there is no way I will continue the moratorium on the mini golf.

1. Check
2. Check
3. Ha! Damn, Check
4. Is minigolf once a year for several years a “streak”
5. Check (though I have my suspicions)
6. My RPT will to suddenly become sick and have to leave work in time to get home for the 8:30 starts…. (real RPT pending)
7. Stats are useless now (if you can call Corsi #‘s a stat) WE’RE IN THE PLAYOFFS!
8. Check (Photochop – maybe if I can come up with some extra time)
9. Hopefully check. Depends on how convincingly I can play sick
10. Will there be trolls?

I’ll add that though I hardly ever post, I love reading all of the work and comments here. Good luck Avs, get some playoff experience and have some fun!

playoff beards, men. do eet.

also, off topic, but did jibble win his bet with the M&G guys? it was 95 points, right?

I would have to have the busiest 2 weeks of my life starting today, wouldn’t I?

1. Have been doing this all season when possible.
2. recorded to memory.
3. Considering the wife just had a c-section…well we’ll just have to see how far the Avs go.
4. Noted
5. Noted
6. Beard is started, fridge stocked with DrP., chicken wings and tater tots.
7. Wait? What is Corsi?
8. Hey how about them Young Guns!
9. Hopefully Cumiskey (and the Avs in general) score lots of goals.
10. But…but…but…oh alright.

1) Walked into work rocking an Avs jersey today, like most days. Always have my nicer “work” shirt underneath. They don’t appreciate Avs jersey at Press Conferences announcing murder and such.

2) I think I got that down

3) We have 2 kids, we are done for awhile. LOL

4) No current streaks going on right now, but should one arise this week, I’ll stick with it

5) I’ve learned you can never predict things with this team anyway

6) Playoff beard is going (maybe I’ll start the freshly shaven fanshot later for the guys doing it). Nothing else ridiculous yet

7) Corsi? You mean that thing that means nothing?

8) I do this all the time. People find my hockey obsession to be quite annoying. That means it’s working right?

9) I’m going to have a heck of a time staying up for the games as it is, can I add them the following morning?

10) NEVER!!

1. Have my Avs bowling shirt on at work as we speak
2. I never study for tests, it just comes naturally
3. Mini-Golf schedule is sporadic enough as it is
4. Check
5. Never do it anyway
6. Beard started last week, fridge stocked/will be replenished with 1554
7. Numbers lie anyway
8. Do this anyway
9. Find someone else to do your dirtywork!
10. I also promise not to get them wet.

Michigan fans are terrible.

Hockey: Howard should win the Calder. (No, his numbers are inflated from playing behind a good team – just as you reminded us over and over about with Osgood.)

Football: University of Michigan has perhaps the greatest tradition of any college, have you seen our unique helmets? (No, Princeton used that design first.)

Shall I continue?

During the day of Game three and to the game. Let’s white out the Pepsi Center. Show the guys on Versus that fans still care about hockey in Colorado! Oh and pass the word. Let’s get everyone on this.

On number 10, I wouldn’t “feed a troll,” per se, but can we beat the shit out of someone who pops in here and tell us how to react when one of our best players is injured by a gentlemanly cheap shot board?

For this round my household will reprise our family “Eat Wings to Beat Wings” tradition and try to consume as much shark (or fish) as possible on game days.

I’ll be shopping for Shark gummies this p.m.

1. Only own one Avs jersey, but it’s going to get a LOT of use. I might even steal my mom’s Budaj jersey for extra fun, it’s not like she ever uses it.
2. wat is memes
3. I don’t think that will be a problem for me :(
4. k
5. Never do that unless Jones is in anyway :(
6. Last time they were in the playoffs I spent every game in my dorm’s lounge watching the game with my ukulele, didn’t seem to work. This season I might do something less ukuleleish.
7. lol corsi
8. Well naturally!
9. I’ll do all 5 myself if needed.
10. NEIN

You won’t have to worry too much about trolls, at least from our end. FTF’s also a pretty bustling blog and a pretty classy group of people. That being said, I’m sure you all know that playoffs often draw out individuals on both blogs that may not be regulars. I make no guarantees about the latter :P

1. Always. Wore the Avs hat today. I have three jerseys out (the rest were accidentally put into storage) and will be wearing those. As well as my All I want for Christmas and IAAL T-shirts.
2.No need
3. Hahahahahaha, that was a joke, right? Well, hey, if Ovie can do it, so can I.
4.Obviously
5. No shit.
6. Will see what happens, can’t force those things. If I knock over a cone and they win, I’ll knock over that same cone every time.
7. DOn’t even want to dignify that.
8. As always. Hell, my brother who doesn’t know hockey knows the Avs and players and the dates of the games. Those are the only things he knows about hockey, oh and that I get very into the games.
9. No promises…
10. i try not to.

1. Damn, my work won’t allow it and they were sold out of the Avs thongs. Guess I’ll have to settle for after work gear.
2. Like Sandie, no need.
3. Does that include putting green action?
4. How does that work? You tell us to lay off but then we have to keep up the streak? I’m confused. Do I or don’t I, oh master?
5. Can we send a memo to the Altiboobs on that one?
6. Don’t those things start spontaneously? I mean, if you force it doesn’t it lose its magic? I shall pay attention tho so that something will develop.
7. But Corsi is God! /ducks
8. Already do.
9. I’ll try to do the GDT thing but refuse the Skeet thing. Sorry, but Chapelle is lame.
10. I won’t feed them but can I PLEASE twist them around super duper fast so their hair goes all wacky cuz of the centrifugal force???

1)Of course!
2)Check!
3)Haha, that may be a problem with how late these first two are.
4)Noted.
5)Karma is a bitch!!
6)Putting together a great playlist right now.
7)Who?
8)Already started with my economics teacher today who saw me in my avs jersey early in the season and said "the avs are not gonna do anything this year." And I love the pictures I wish I had the skills to do my own!
9)Okay

1. CHECK. Also: I am awesome.
2. Done and done. Also, we need a meme glossary!
3. OH.
4. o_O
5. I will try my hardest!
6. I need to think up something good. But if it comes down to the wire, I will sacrifice my personal hygene for the team.
7. If Don Cherry hates it enough to blather on about it incoherently, I have no need to even try to understand what it means.
8. I have already become absolutely obnoxious regarding this team. The newest addition to my everyday vocabulary is “WHOOOPLAYOFFS.”
I will continue to supply any good chops that I can think of/ that are requested from me. My school semester is almost over and I am wicked behind which means that I will be spending the majority of my time messing around in Photoshop and generally not doing any schoolwork whatsoever. And with my discovery of Photoshops ability to animate .gif images… I can hardly fathom the hours that will be wasted!
9. I’m sort of excited to say “OH YOU JUST GOT SHAT ON.”
10. But may we rub the little jewels on their bellies and make wishes?

1. Rocking my dark Sakic Jersey.
Hopefully I’ll have the funds together in order to buy the last CCM Alternate from my local sports store before Wed.

2. Done many moons ago. Updating the thing could be useful though.

3. No need to cancel, haven’t had any rounds of mini-golf for awhile now.

4. Duly noted.

5. I never liked making predictions.

6. Not sure what it will be yet, but I’ll have one by Wed.

7. Corsi? I wonder if it’s as all-powerful out on the golf course? I’ll have to ask M&G about it.

8. Done and Done. Annoying my brother(Leafs fanatic) to no end.

9. I may or may not be in every GDT, depends on if the local Wild Wing is playing it.

10. Well that’s no fun.

Here’s to hoping you beat the crap out of San Jose. Good luck guys!

YOU DO IT BECAUSE THIS MAN SAID SO…

Never f*ck with a winning streak.

Go Avs. Put an early end to the Jabberjaws postseason.
