The War for Idol, the War for the White House....AND.. the BRA OF TOMORROW!
A few weeks ago, the American Idol Music Pundits declared that it would be the TWO DAVIDS in the finals...
And since the experts don't want to shown as being wrong, poor Syesha had to go...(bless her heart)
Now, the experts can say "See? We told you so!" The SAME thing can be said for the OTHER (almost as important) Voting competition... the 2008 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION... for months now, the political phoney baloney TV Pundits on CNN, FOX, what-have-yous have decided that to would be BARACK OBAMA and JOHN McCAIN in the finals..
That means, for the "experts" to be right, Hillary Clinton (in the role of Syesha) would have to be eliminated (bless her heart)...
BUT.. unlike Syesha, Hillary is not just quietly doing as she is told and is becoming Obama's.... um.. I dunno.. uh..what would you call it?....
Yeah... that works... Now, Barack Obama has scored the highly-sought-after JOHN EDWARDS endorsement!
If we continue in the "Race-For-the-White-House-Is-Just-Like-American-Idol" scenario, John Edwards is like former Idol contestant JASON CASTRO..
WHY?? Like Jason, Edwards is very pretty, doesn't seem too bright.. people voted for him, but really don't know why... (no offense.. bless his/their heart/hearts)
Rumors are swirling now that Hillary might run as a THIRD PARTY Candidate ("Turd" Party if you're Canadian) if she doesn't get her way (I mean, if she doesn't get the nomination, sorry)....please don't kill me with your evil eye!
I think that is JUST TERRIFIC! ANYTHING that can make this whole thing take EVEN longer is great!
Seriously, do we REALLY have to do this tiresome voting for the president thing EVERY FOUR YEARS?? I seems that we vote, they all take a couple weeks off, then they start the whole thing again! Can't we just give OPRAH the job for life?? SHE knows what's best for us!
OR... instead of this tiresome voting and campaigning, can't we vote from our couches like American Idol? (Or text your vote to "Prez-08"?).. since we have to sit through an election anyway, we should make it FUN!! How about ABC's DANCING FOR THE WHITEHOUSE?? YES! Plus... I hear that Hillary is a terrific DANCER... especially around Christmas when she dances her special egg-nogg fueled version of "The NUTCRACKER"...
Guys! Can you look at that WITHOUT flinching? I'll answer that.. NO.. You Can't....
OKAY.. Politics and American Idol aside, we, finally, have SOMETHING REALLY IMPORTANT...
....we have IMPORTANT BRA NEWS!!!!
As reported this morning on the EXTREMELY POPULAR WOODY & JIM Program on 1075the river, scientists (God Bless Em) have developed a SOLAR POWER BRA!!! The bra is outfiited with solar panels that collect the sun's energy to produce enough power to run your iPod or cell phone!!!
The ONLY downside (for ladies) is you would have to wear the bra on the OUTSIDE of your clothes for the solar panels to do their work! MEN, on the other hand, would see NO DOWNSIDE to ladies wearing their bras outside their tops, or just forgetting the top altogether... THIS, my friends, could be the GREATEST discovery of our generation!!! Self-contained BRA POWER!!!
Ladies! You may ask "Dr. Woody", IS the SUPER BRA of the FUTURE comfortable????
The answer is OBVIOUS to ALL MEN... WE DON'T CARE IF IT'S COMFORTABLE!
JUST THINK OF THE POSSIBILITIES of a future run entirely on BRA POWER!! A bra that produces power would help you carry your fragile and precious tropical fish WITH YOU without worrying that they would die without a proper fish tank water temperature!
Heating up a quick hot rice lunch on the go will save fast track corporate ladies valuable minutes EVERYDAY!
Keeping your adult beverage of choice cold while at Riverfront Park on the 4th of July.... NO LONGER A PROBLEM thanks to the POWER BRA!
OR... dare we dream.... a protein rich BRA POWERED BACON BREAKFAST???
YES!! It IS a BRAVE NEW WORLD! Imagine the social applications! At a party, an awesome ice-breaker line would be "Excuse me, miss... My iPhone is down to just one bar of battery life... MAY I PLUG INTO YOU????"
FULL FIGURED LADIES outfitted with the Solar Bra of the Future could curb our dependence on foreign oil!!! Why, Pamela Anderson alone could light up the entire Southeastern United States with just ONE CUP of ENERGY!
These are, truly, exciting times! I, for one, will vote for the candidate who will promise increased government funding for ALL SCIENTIFIC BRA BREAKTHROUGHS! Hell.... NOT JUST BRAS! ALL ladies undergarments! AMERICA!!!
Are you WITH ME????
WE need Bill Clinton back! HE would NOT be afraid to tackle this issue head on....and HANDS ON!!!!!!
BOB is with me!
Remember... Knowledge is Power! The Future is Ours! and I love YOU the most and hope I can count on your support come November!
Imagine, if you will, someone fell asleep in the late 1980s.. perhaps from a Thanksgiving Turkey Tryptophan Overdose...
This person has been in a coma ever since...
SUDDENLY! They wake up.... TODAY!
Is is YOUR JOB to convince this now wide-awake individual that it has been almost 20 years since they fell asleep.... simple.... just look at what's new in entertainment.... prove it is NOT 1989...
Hey, Look! There's a new New Kids on the Block Album and Tour coming!
OK... um... how 'bout the movies??? Indiana Jones...
...OK... that doesn't prove it's 2008.... ooh.. how bout this.. there's a Batman vs the Joker coming out....
...um.. OK... well, I hope they got Kim Basinger to play Vicki Vale! ... Hey... they're doing an X-Files Movie!
... alright.... no good? Turn on the TV! That'll prove it's not 1989!! Hey! American Gladiators is on!!
Hey..... Richard Simmons is on ESPN!
.... WAIT! Hulk Hogan is on MTV! ... OK... we'll THAT doesn't prove it's NOT the late 80s! JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT! .. if you don't believe ME, ask President Bush!!!
... ????????? ... um...... uh....
OK... well.... I give up.... maybe it IS 1989.... except for the gas prices....
I'm glad that Jason Castro has FINALLY been allowed to leave American Idol! Many people say he WANTED to be voted out so badly, he messed things up on purpose, leaving America's American Idol Voters (pictured below) NO CHOICE but to have him humanely put down!
Now, Jason can return to.... um..... uh... whatever he does..
On the other hand... I'm sad about Jason's departure... because we ALL need someone to root against! We all need a NEMESIS!! Someone who is your foil... your constant opposite competition! Speed Racer NEEDS RACER X!
Luke Skywalker Needs Darth Vader!
Tom Cruise NEEDS XENU (the bad-guy in Tom's crazy Hollywood made up Sci-Fi Writer created "religion")!
Tom is seen above forcing Xenu away from taking control of the body of his good friend Oprah!*
*Sorry, that's a lie... Tom, of course, HAS NO "Good Friends"
Before I am MORE sidetracked, as I said, we need a Nemesis.. even on American Idol!... personally, I'll be cheering for David Archuleta to be ATTACKED ..... YES! Attacked...by PUBERTY in the middle of his last performance..
I know... I know... he's adorable... we could JUST eat him up... but a poorly timed bout of Puberty would be AWESOME!
Other MUSICAL things I'm thankful for today...
I'm thankful we have some BIG TIME MUSIC STAR RADIO INTERVIEWS lined up for next week!!
Tuesday... we chat with Randy Jackson...
Katherine "Krazy Legs" McPhee..
And Elliot Yamin!
Oops.... sorry.. honest mistake... here ya go...Elliot Yamin!
Kat & Elliot have (what they HOPE will be) a hit DUET on Randy's Music Club CD... that's on Tuesday.....on Monday... we talk with my long-lost brother DANNY WOOD, internationally honored as the 4th or 5th MOST POPULAR member of THE NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK!
OMG!!!!!!!!!
As SUPER NKOTB FANS know... they have a COMEBACK CD coming out! We'll ALSO play their new song, "Summertime" (Around 6:30ish Monday morning... log on to the WOODY & JIM section of www.1075theriver.com for details....logging on our website AND listening EVERYDAY comes HIGHLY recommended, by the way)
On a related note, I'm also thankful that 1075 the River's Weekend Radio Air Personality and New Promotions Director DJ LUNCHBOX (pictured below)...
....BRAVELY took this moment in NKOTB history to, um..to OUT HIMSELF.....
...AS A HUGE NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK FAN!!! But, HEY! Lunchbox is MY FRIEND and I will will NOT look at him differently.... EVEN in light of the recent announcement of his lifestyle choice!
This just in... researchers agree that a FULLY GROWN HUSKY MAN... (such as LUNCHBOX).... admitting (publicly) that he loves the NKOTB DOES NOT "necessarily" act as a "GATEWAY DRUG" to OTHER alternative lifestyles choices, so REST EASY (I'm speaking to LUNCHBOX's MOM seen here in a moment of thankful relief)...
...but, then again, I DID hear Lunchbox say he was considering a VW JETTA as his next car purchase (not that there's anything wrong with that!)
... Speaking of comebacks, I'm also thankful that MADONNA (seen below) is able to remain a hot, sexy force in the music industry WELL into her 70s!!!
Actually, Madonna LOOKS GREAT... and continues to remain smokin' hot by using hip, current, younger people in her songs and videos, like Justin Timberlake!
I'm also thankful that I have delightful memories from the 80s.. remember JAMIE LEE CURTIS? I had such a BIG CRUSH on her in the 80s!!
Well, even though she's getting close to qualifying for the Wednesday Kroger Senior Discount, she is STILL ACTIVE... at least her BOWELS are...
The object of my youthful desire ever since the first "Halloween" movie is now on TV singing the praises of that YOGURT that helps you go POOP!
"Stay away from my poop-inducing yogurt or feel my wrath!"
So.... since my blog theme is "thankfulness", I'm thankful that Jamie Lee Curtis is REGULAR! From her horror movies, we KNOW she can SCREAM... so a CONSTIPATED Jamie Lee Curtis would be BAD... very BAD..
"BE OUT in a MINUTE! Damn you Michael Myers! Bring me MORE YOGURT!!!"
So, to sum up, I'm thankful that Jason Castro has been overthrown, the NKOTB are back, that DJ Lunchbox is comfortable with his lifestyle choices, that Madonna drinks enough virgin blood annually to stay alive, that I'll be there to catch them when Randy Jackson drops celebrity names, AND that Jamie Lee Curtis can still enjoy a satisfying bowel movement (and YES.. I DID see that Saturday Night Live Parody... very funny)... but mostly... as you probably know, I'm MOST THANKFUL for .....
Me and the Mrs (seen below) wish you a Happy Cinco De Mayo!
Toast the day with a Corona stuffed with citrus.. or just stay home and Beat your Pinata... either way, the celebration in on! As we celebrate the ONE DAY per year that me wearing this T-Shirt is SLIGHTLY LESS OFFENSIVE than the OTHER 364 Days of the year!
Enjoy the day! And bring on the Stereotypes!!
And, as I always say, while they are hurtful and wrong, on the plus side....
ADIOS! I GUSTAR USTED LO MAS!
*
* I KNOW this blog was totally pointless AND a waste of time.. but I still find it more interesting than that "Buy You As A Pet" game that many of you have tried to draw me into. Sorry. Nope. Life is too short. I prefer to let my $15 Novelty T-Shirts Do the Talking.
Intern Adam’s Serious Drinking Problem turns into 15 Minutes of Basic Cable Fame!!
Stand Back! I don't want you to BURN YOURSELF on the SHEER SMOKIN' HOTNESS of the little radio show we call:
on
A humble daily radio program that has, once again, received national praise! And NOT just for our keen fashion sense! And WHAT do we have to thank for this recent worldwide buzz? We thank our Intern Adam and the fact that he is "buzzed" every night in one Nashville Night Spot or another!
Above is a typical photo of Adam HARD AT WORK... drinking, schmoozing, never allowing his eyes to stray too far from a mirror or other reflective surface, all the while glancing to and fro... eager to snap into a definitive pose for the ever-present cameras of "Lazy Day", "Napkin Nights" or other assorted Nashville nightlife paparazzi.. ALSO, keenly watching for celebrities with which he might share a moment, a nibble of gossip, an Apple-tini or even Jager Bomb....Wednesday night, Adam was on just such a Celeb Fishing Expedition at a bar that much remain top secret (Although the Bar does have a "2" and a "3" in its' title) when he HIT THE MOTHER LOAD... in the form of Country (and Western) singer AND adult-beverage enthusiast MINDY McCREADY!
Mindy (Bless Her Heart) has had a rough couple of years.. AND was JUST THIS WEEK mentioned in the New York Daily News as having had a ten year relationship with Baseball Icon and (alledged) steroid poster child, Roger Clemens!
Long story short.. after a couple of refreshing beverages, Ms. McCready was nice enough to consent to a radio interview on the topic of the alledged affair, which was rumored to have begun when mindy was 15.... (oops!)
As it turns out... we were the first ones she talked to about the story... so, suddenly, it was a Nashville Story, A News Story, AND (most important to people who own and operate "Penises") an ESPN story! It was ALL OVER! In case you missed it....
So... we got our name out there AND voices on ESPN, Adam is the darling of the gossipy celebrity website crowd (since TMZ.com picked it up)... Mindy is planning a comeback CD, a book, AND reality show, and Roger Clemens is NOT ONLY getting calls from Chris Hanson at Dateline NBC, but ALSO a lovely fruit basket and thank you card from Barry Bonds for taking the media attention away from Mr. Bonds' Butt and "B-12" Shots...
So... when you see Intern Adam at a BAR (don't worry, you will) give him a high five, buy him something from the top shelf, and bathe in his newfound notoriety!
BUT... do it soon while he is still approachable and, mostly, armed bodyguard free!
Have a nice weekend, and don't forget... of ALL the people who read this crap I write, I will always love YOU the most!
OK... so, last night I'm driving home from the "Iron Fork" Charity Event at LP Field... (oooo... Name Dropper!) and I call the house to see if I needed to pick up anything at the store (as a responsible Husband & Father does... YES! I am that perfect!), and I'm talking to my son, Alex. I realize that American Idol has just ended, so I ask: "Hey! Who got voted out tonight?" He said "The Girl." "OK.. WHICH Girl??" "ummm.. the WHITE girl!"
SUDDENLY, I'm fist-pumping and honking the horn on I-24! YES! YES! YES!
LET THE SEXY DANCE PARTY BEGIN!! JASON CASTRO is FINALLY GONE!!!!
YES!................ But......... wait! OH NO! My GLEE suddenly turned to crotch-kicking agony!
The "White Girl" Alex mentioned was NOT Jason Castro!
As it turned out... poor Brooke White was voted out..
We might as well get used to it... Jason Castro... America's Zoloft-Popping Stoner BaristaWILL BE the next AMERICAN IDOL... he is, obviously, unstoppable.. like "The Terminator".
Relentless... Emotionless.. TALENT-less... Sure... Brooke was ready to go... but.. C'Mon!! Jason Castro in the TOP 4????
By the way, Sci-Fi fans, In the "Terminator" scenario, the part of SKY NET will be played by those of you who cast votes for this Dreadlock Wearing Cyborg! .... Sleep well....... ......IF YOU CAN........
By 58% Miley Free, I mean... let me get it out of the way first, then on to other topics of huge importance.
With all the finger pointing and shocked faces surrounding those Vanity Fair photos... say what you will... you can't UN-see them.. so, let's move on..... HOWEVER.. I HOPE this is not the first step toward ending up like many other FORMER DISNEY DIVAS...Like Britney and Lindsay.... cause, you know... it's not a far walk from THIS:
TO THIS:
Or, even this:
Hopefully, Miley has a good support staff and friends and family around her to keep her from heading down that slippery slope... Now, the latest person to blame in this, they say, is Miley's Grandmother (seen here:)
Oops.... sorry... seen HERE:
If that is the case, and Grandma was in charge... I totally believe it..How many times have you been Baby-Sat by Grandma and COULDN'T GET AWAY WITH ANYTHING? NEVER! That's when! Grandma is EASY... "Grandma Cyrus! Can I pose for these naughty pictures in Vanity Fair???" "Oh, I don't know, sweetheart"... THEN... the PUPPY EYES.....
"Grandma! PPPPLLLLEEEEAAAAASSSSSEEEEE!!!" End of story... get the camera! The thing is... Miley doesn't NEED to do this! She's already a Billionaire....
Leave the shocking stuff to the people with NO TALENT that will DO ANYTHING for attention.... you know... like the Simpson Sisters!
Ashlee & Jessica's Father, Joe Simpson (see here)
... has send the Cyrus' and angry E-Mail... saying "HEY! WHORING OUT DAUGHTERS for Personal Gain is MY GIG...so.. BACK OFF!!!" Plus, he "CC'd" the email to the Spears family, the Battlin' Lohans, the Hiltons, the Hills, and the cast of Gossip Girl...so.. watch out Cyrus Clan! You don't want that pack for publicity vampires after you!
OK.... MOVING ON....
WHO will be leaving AMERICAN IDOL this week? I think Paula Abdul's Pill "Doctor" will be the next to go.
WHOEVER was in charge of Paula's RX Mix should NOT be fired! They should be celebrated for being responsible for the greatest moment in TV in the history of forever!
Oh.... Paula... bless your heart! Working side-by-side with FOX TV technicians, Paula's team of personal pharmacists are working around the clock to get her Pill Cocktail JUST RIGHT...
Experts are being called in as we speak... including the Special Effects Wizards who make Oprah look wrinkle-free and thin:
and make Katie Couric look like she is LESS than 65 years old...
As I picked on the air this morning... if JASON CASTRO makes it to the finals.... the terrorists WIN! Plain and simple! Once Castro IS kicked out.... he will then remove his mask and reveal his TRUE IDENTITY: he is......SANJAYA... but, without the hot sister!
Hey! I promise not so long between blogs again!
Cause I love YOU the most and I'm not satisfied til you are!
My "day-after the last Predator Game of the Season blog" MAY have left you with the impression that I find most Middle Tennessee Newspaper Reporters to be Lazy, Bitter, Know-Nothing Doofuses whose articles are not worthy of catching the shat on the bottoms of cages inhabited by loose-boweled parakeets....
Well, if THAT IS the impression I left you with, then.. GOOD! That's exactly what I meant. The majority of our Newspaper Sports Writers (seen here) ... are morons who rarely make the effort to walk down Broadway to attend a Predators Game, and when they do, they just hang out in the media lounge bitching about the lack of unlimited shrimp instead of feeling the energy of the crowd and the action on the ice. But, it's hard to teach an old dog new tricks (or sports, in this case). So, those old dogs work for the newspaper, smugly unaware that their way of making a living is quickly going the way of the VHS tape and albums on 8-Tracks.
Luckily, on radio & TV, things are better, and those folks don't treat hockey as an unknown thing to be feared and, therefore, hated...Pete & Terry are, of course, the most awesome-est of the awesome... We've had them on the show several times... I could listen to them all day long... Duncan Stewart can intelligently talk hockey (and, surprisingly, he also writes for the Daily News Journal, but, thankfully doesn't have the "we fear change" newspaper attitude).. of course, 104.5 The Zone has GEORGE PLASTER (seen here)
The "SPAZZ" (oops, the "Plazz") knows NOTHING about Hockey (or, most assuredly, how to please a woman sexually)... BUT..at least George is SMART ENOUGH to KNOW he knows nothing.. so he surrounds himself with people who do! (Willy Daunic, who is very good AND a fabulous dancer)... This leaves George free to concentrate on what HE thinks is important (Name-Dropping, The Braves, and Dreadfully Slow Boring Stories about his dinner plans and buying storm windows) .. OH! where was I? Mmmkay.. one more thing about the press.. I realize that budgets and manpower issues make it tough to staff sports radio stations, but WHY do radio sports stations insist on putting on NEWSPAPER sports people as "experts"?? We can READ how bias and worthless they are, but on the radio we also get to hear their pointless opinions in whiney little weasel voices!
Luckily, most those shows are on in the morning, so I don't hear them (as I am far too busy steering the massive ratings grabbing fun boat known as "Woody & Jim in the morning on 1075 the River"... listening EVERYDAY is highly recommended! But, only for smart, sexy people with delightful personalities and fresh breath... but that's why YOU listen, right?)
WOW! THAT, my friends, is what people call EYE CANDY! Don't get too close... ya might get burned*.....oooh yeah... *(I couldn't use the graphic if it wasn't true)
On to OTHER Hockey stuff..
The Preds are done, but the playoffs continue.. in the next round the REDWINGS play the SAN JOSE SHARKS! If you're interested, I will be rooting for...............
INJURIES... severe, agonizing, perhaps career-ending injuries... Stanley Cup Finals? My guess...
I'm picking the FLYERS over the Redwings in 7 Games! If you keep up with these things, you know that FORMER Predators (who we couldn't afford to keep anymore) Kimmo Timonen (DAMN I miss HIM), Scott Hartnell and Scotty Upshaw all play for the Philadelphia Flyers now, so it would be sweet to see them beat up on the AARP Redwings for themselves and US.. it would be great to see a Predator hoist the cup.. even if they're not Predators anymore... it'll be close enough .. for now... AND.. if that cup should "accidently" fall on Chris Chelios' head... well, that's just gravy.... mmmmmmmm Gravy!
Enough for now..... let me go back to what I do best...thinking about YOU... and only YOU... Cause I love YOU the most!
A tough end to the Nashville Predators Season being bumped from the playoffs by the Evil (and Elderly) Redwing Empire!
But, hey! Preds Fans..
Sure, it was a disappointing exit for the Preds. Shake it off! That's how things go sometimes!
But, all things considered, it was a pretty awesome season! Could been much worse! MUCH worse! A few months ago we DIDN'T EVEN KNOW IF WE'D KEEP THE TEAM! However... despite the best efforts of Dumbass Canadian Billionaires AND Dumbass Sports Reporters in Nashville*, we got to keep our team!
Maybe I'm just a crybaby (not like Chris Chelios).. but I STILL get choked up with happy tears when I see the pictures of Govenor Phil & First Chick Andrea showing their love for our team!
How awesome was that? Fan support and David Freeman and his team of Superfriends came through for us big time! THAT is the memory of this season we need to hold on to!
Plus.. we couldn't afford to keep a lot of our big money players and the experts gave us no chance.. but... guess what?.. we MADE the playoffs! Don't let those Detriot fans fool you.. they are DAMN GLAD they made it past us... a few different bounces and it coulda been different...BESIDES.. being a Redwings fan is MUCH TOO EASY! They are expected to win it all EVERY YEAR... so the only way they can go is DOWN.. whereas, we PREDATORS FANS can enjoy everything.. we're the underdogs! The rest of the hockey world (and most of the Nashville Media*) expect us to suck every year! So, when we DON'T suck... we celebrate!
So, BE LOUD, BE PROUD... be Happy! We keep our team! If, for no other reason, just to piss off the Rich Canadians and the Reporters at the Tennessean!*
*Allow me to take a quick second and explain something about (most, but not all.... but, MOST) Newspaper Sports People... they are, by nature, ANGRY and LAZY.... Angry because they feel they are too good to have to go report on things... they would MUCH rather sit around and reprint press releases that are emailed to them. Also angry because they work for newspapers and they know that newspapers are a quickly dying medium... and THAT causes them to be bitter and sour toward EVERYTHING (except free food and an open bar). Honestly, does ANYBODY go to a newspaper for news? Ummmm.. no..Sure, we grab the paper to check the Sunday sale's ads, cut out a whimsical "Dilbert" for our cubicle, or use the paper to wrap fish, train puppies, and line birdcages... but "NEWS"? ....Nope!
By the time it's in the newspaper, it ain't news anymore.. (bless their hearts)... Newspaper reporters are lazy and think they know everything, so learning something new makes them even more angry! So... in 1998 Nashville got a hockey team (or as many Nashville media people called it: "ICE Hockey".. as opposed to our slightly less successful "Field Hockey" team).... and the news of that made Newspaper reporters ball up their tiny ink-stained fists and scream at the darkness!! Sure, 1998 also saw the Houston Oilers move to town, but THAT did not anger the paper people... they understood football, cause that's what the VOLS play (granted NOT as well as they used to..)... But this ICE HOCKEY! With it's crazy, mixed up, hard to understand rules and players with names that had hardly any vowels in them!! Oh, how the Paper People HATE THAT!!
Since the Paper People are too LAZY to learn a new sport, what else was there to do?? They had to STOP this HOCKEY THING, but HOW??? Oh, they've been working on it... GOOD Nashville Predators news..... put it on page 8..... BAD Predators news??? FRONT PAGE! A chance the Predators might leave town? GIANT FRONT PAGE BANNER HEADLINE!!! Hockey? We don't understand it... so... therefore we HATE and FEAR IT! Oh, how the Paper People loved it when they thought the team would leave! They were beside themselves! Jumping up and down like a little girl waiting to use the bathroom!
.... But, suddenly, the Paper Peoples' joy turned to Chris Chelios-like tears.... the Predators are staying....
Sorry, Newspaper people... we're keeping our team.. so.. learn how to cover the sport or get out..
So.. if you feel down about the Predator season being done, cheer up... at least you're not some angry newspaper writer who will have to learn how to say and spell names like "Hlavac", "Radulov", and "Bochenski" against their will for the next BUNCH of years... As for me... I love my Preds! See you at the Sommet in September!
