My team finished dead last in the East...
Here we go again... We Wings fans have to have something to get "up" for around here, while we drive down to the Joe past boarded-up car dealerships, restaurants, most of our retail... Okay, we're worms, we're the offslough of the country,

If the Red Wings win it again, does that make them one of the best hockey franchises ever? Best sports franchises? (I mean OUTSIDE of Detroit
)

My team (Edmonton Oilers) didn't finish dead last but I wish they had so that we would at least have gotten a decent draft pick! In my opinion it is worse to finish 9-12th in your conference then 13th-15th.
Anyway, after living here in Surrey (Vancouver) for two years I have never wanted a team to lose so badly! I use to love the Canucks when I lived in Edmonton but now I despise them beyond all belief (thanks Canuck's fans ).
So, for me, these playoffs are all a matter of knowing the ABC's (Anyone But Canucks).
On a different note, I am going to LOVE the upcoming Capitals/Penguins series. Crosby vs. Ovechkin - EPIC.

I may be able to score some tickets for the Caps/Pens Series. It is going to be a barn-burner...

I think deep down every Canadian who doesn't normally cheer for the team that wins the Cup dreads it. The reason is is that because a Canadian team hasn't won the Cup for such a long time whichever city does end up winning the cup won't let anyone forget it for a long long time
"Yeah, well our team brought Canada out of the wilderness, neener neener na na"It's all about knowing your ABC's (Anyone But Canucks)

I'm not quite understanding, Pastor, what you mean by "OUTSIDE of Detroit." The Joe Louis Arena is on Civic Center Dr., sort of what we call "at the foot of Woodward," a couple of blocks from the Coleman A. Young Municipal Center (now that's something to laugh at...
The Joe's zip code is 48226. It don't get much more "Detroit" than that zip. "90210," it's not.
Another Wings win would make them one of the best sports franchises ever. However, I'm not counting on them to do it this year. Although -- I might throw an octopus onto this thread. Never know. I did it last year, when the Wings did win. (If anyone remembers...

I was being sarcastic. Obviously they are the best franchise IN Motor City. I know the Canadiens won a lot of championships but that was back when there were like 6 teams or something.

Well, the Habs were a tremendous hockey team in their day & the Wings couldn't touch 'em back then. I & any honest Wings fan would be the first to admit that. Our real Canadian rivalry is with the Leafs, anyway.
Silly me, Pastor! As a native Detroiter, I should recognize sarcasm right off the bat, especially from your corner!
But it was early this a.m., & I'd spent yesterday in the cardiac ER. Was tired. I know: excuses, excuses!
(The aforementioned octopus is making its way from the waters where it was "collared" and contained... Its ETA is TBD... )

Ah yes, but let us not forget another verse:
Actually, I love Vancouver. It is way cooler than Montreal. (At least it was back in the '80s)

If you are serious, you are condemming yourself – after all TWU is a Metro Vancouver University.

Strong words call for strong measures.
I see by Google that Kwanglim Korean Methodist Church is in Surrey BC and that you are the English Youth Pastor. Shall I let your church officials or your youth group know about your heterodox stand?
