Crap, They Did It Again

swearsI can't believe I'm writing this entry. It's after 4pm, there's a blizzard outside my window and I'm feeling that nervous tingle in the pit of my stomach. Like a dumb ass catfish, I saw the worm dangling in open water and took a whopper of a chomp at it. They do this to me every time....

I call it the annual tease. For the third year in a row, I had completely given up on my hockey team only to get sucked back into caring by a late season surge. Like the other years, I know I'll end up disappointed again, but I can't help myself. I'm thinking about a sweep against the Bruins and slipping into 8th.

It's deja vu all over again. Here are exhibits A and B.

Go Leafs Go!

That would be the ultimate eff-you, I love it.

It's conceivable, I just looked at the standings and Ottawa has 89 points and our boys have 80, both teams having 6 games to play.

So if the Leafs go 6-0-0 & Ottawa goes 1-5-0, we'd pull ahead with 92 points. Boy, wouldn't that be a helluva thing.

Yeah, I jinxed it. In the words of Joe Bowen, "Stick a fork in 'em! They're done!" :(
