  1. I must say, I am digging Doc's purple jacket.

    "I could have used Panger as my jockey yesterday; my horse is still running." - Edzo, who apparently did not put his money on Mine That Bird...

    Actually, Eddie, if you did have Panger as your jockey, your horse would still be running 3 weeks later..

  8. NO KIDDING! AND IT FIGURES BRAD STURART (THE PLAYER TRADED FOR JOE THORNTON) WOULD SCORE THAT GOAL.

  16. "Here is the last of people that have done it." - Doc Emrick

    Cutting quotes short and taking them totally out of context can be so fun at times! ;-)

  21. Some how fans of the Rolex Equestrian Competition (or whatever it is) are greatly disappointed and depressed right now...

    ReplyDelete
  22. The Rolex Equestrian Championship has been rescheduled for May 16 and will air 1-hour before the Preakness.

    'Tis a pity...

  23. I have to go now.....fml. Oh well, thank goodness being home means I have access to a DVR.

  24. Anaheim won in 3 OTs. Todd Marchant (I believe) got the game-winner for Anaheim.

    ReplyDelete
  25. 2-0 Canes after 2. And am I the only one that considers it a miracle that Forslund and Brickley have not dropped the gloves and fought each other in the booth? I'd love to be a fly on the wall in that booth.

  26. i loved Doc's comment about wanting swedish fish after Olcyzk pizza right before the 3rd OT. also, how ridiculous is it that NBC won't be airing another NHL game for 2 weeks? i live in Baltimore,but do they really need a multi-hour Preakness pre-game or major-like coverage of TPC golf?

    ReplyDelete
  27. It sucks, yes, but Doc Emrick will be doing some games for Versus over the next couple of weeks including tomorrow night's Penguins-Capitals game.

    ReplyDelete
  28. And that game is also a Versus exclusive so you won't be stuck having to listen to Joe Beninati call the game.
