SteelerFan87 Posted September 28, 2006 Report Posted September 28, 2006 Anybody here like hockey? I know Cincinnati doesn't have a hockey team, but any Bluejackets fans or anything here? Quote
ArmyBengal Posted September 28, 2006 Report Posted September 28, 2006 A sport I never got into... Oh well...WHODEY !!! Quote
Edogger Posted September 28, 2006 Report Posted September 28, 2006 Yeah, I am a huge fan and still try to play when I can...why? I'm a so-so Bluejacket's fans (gotta support your home state) but my main team is the Wings (cause you have to support the 35 and over teams as well). Can't wait for it to start again...preseason is such a teaser!! Quote
SteelerFan87 Posted September 28, 2006 Author Report Posted September 28, 2006 ArmyBengal, you're missing out man. Hockey is such a great sport.Edogger, yeah, you can't really go wrong with the Red Wings. As for the Bluejackets, the Pens don't get to play them much, so I haven't really seen much of them. But I do like Zherdev. He strikes me as the kind of guy the Penguins would draft, but of course I'm happy to have Fleury, and goalie was really something we needed more that year. Quote
BengalszoneBilly Posted September 28, 2006 Report Posted September 28, 2006 Anybody here like hockey?Do you mean the NHL, which in actuality is nothing more than pro wrestling on ice? No. We stick to real sports, not fake s**t thank you very much. Quote
bengalboomer7 Posted September 28, 2006 Report Posted September 28, 2006 Hockey is one of those sports where it's faboluos to watch the game live, but they're horrible on TV. But don't take it from me, i like to watch golf on TV Quote
ArmyBengal Posted September 28, 2006 Report Posted September 28, 2006 Yep, I'd much rather watch golf than hockey... I've tried to sit and watch it and had my buddies who do watch it, explain it to me, but it still just bores the hell out of me... Oh well...WHODEY !!! Quote
Stripes Posted September 28, 2006 Report Posted September 28, 2006 I've tried to get into the Blue Jackets a few times, but I just can't. The sport itself kinda bores me to tears. I'd imagine that if Cincinnati had a team and I could see a game live that I might be more interested.I know all the Steelers fans I know are also Penguin fanatics. Quote
Casey Posted September 28, 2006 Report Posted September 28, 2006 Hockey is definitely not a TV friendly sport. I've been to a couple of games (NHL and minor league) and really enjoyed it, but I just can't stand watching it on TV....bores me to tears. Quote
SteelerFan87 Posted September 28, 2006 Author Report Posted September 28, 2006 I like it on TV, but I agree it's WAY better in person.And yeah, most people in Pittsburgh are fans of all our teams, even the Pirates (lol), but Penguins fans may be the best in the city. I was at the game last year when Crosby got his 100th point, and you'd have thought it was a Steelers playoff game, even though there were half as many people and the Pens were in last place. Quote
SteelerFan87 Posted February 11, 2008 Author Report Posted February 11, 2008 Pens beat the Flyers yesterday to move into 1st place in the division! Even without Crosby!Come on, you know you guys want to jump on the Pens bandwagon! Quote
TJJackson Posted February 11, 2008 Report Posted February 11, 2008 The only thing I want from Pittsburgh is 2 Bengals wins a year and another breakfast at Pamela's(and no, this is not a veiled euphemism - http://www.pamelasrestaurants.com/shadyside_menu.html - sorry Billy et al) Quote
kenyon1977 Posted February 11, 2008 Report Posted February 11, 2008 I played hockey one time and broke my nose falling on the ice. I go to Dayton Bombers games but only to get drunk and yell at the coach. I don't really know all the rules.I do know that when they are losing 6 to nothing in teh second period that they SUCK!!
