What's a Canuck anyway?

Seems pretty much a sure thing now. Stars @ Vancouver to open the 1st round.

Chances?
So-so, Who really knows?

Here's what we do know. In the playoffs, goaltending carried you places.

Luongo > Turco

If you're down 0-2....Smitty time?

It might be.

Sports things I hate....

Come on, everyone has a list. Here's mine. Well at least some of it....

Nascar

UFC - If you can call that a sport

Womens College Basketball - At least they mostly keep to themselves

Coverage of the NHL - Brad how could you!! I'm talking about the exclusively negative coverage when someone gets hurt or a large brawl breaks out.

The NCAA Tournament - Hey who met in the title game? A couple of #1 seeds? Who cares...

Over excited College football fans - Yeah we got it, you miss college, you wish YOU were Vince Young, you hate your life, etc, etc...'gig em? Wtf does that mean? Go watch a pro game.


Nascar

ESPNs analysis of baseball - The standings and seedings of baseball, have been discussed more in the first 3 days of the season already, than the NBA and NHL COMBINED the ENTIRE SEASON.

Anyone who changes jersey numbers in the middle of their career just because they feel like it

The Dallas Cowboys, The Detroit Red Wings, Steve Nash, The San Antonio Spurs, Milan Hejduk, Eric Lindros, Michel Irvin, The Colorado Avalanche, the Ducks and the Sharks, Kobe Bryant, "Race Weekends," Nascar highlights, Keith Olbermanns inability to talk about anything but Baseball and bashing the presidents, ESPNs basketball presentation, Bruce Bowen, the New York Yankees, Humble Billy, and did I mention Nascar?

I really hate Nascar

Mavs tuning up

So the Mavs went skinny dipping in Sacto without their Dirks on. Despite the balls flying everywhere (what? there were a lot of turnovers), they managed to get out of there with the W and their dignity.

Buck and DG looked more like themselves, and the Centers came to play. But still, every time Damp or Diop put the ball on the floor they give me cancer.

But I was thinking, what does Dirk Nowitzki do at a hotel room during the game by himself?

Does he even watch the game?

Does he have to listen to the Kings TV guys? I hear they were giving him lots of love.

Was he sleeping? or puking?

Did a trainer stay with him?

Personally I prefer to think that he was studying the game inch by little inch, ready to give his young coach some advice afterwards
