Not anymore

All-nighters suck. Ugh, I’m going to be feeling those three Monsters and three hours of sleep I got just now tonight. Hopefully I won’t completely crash until the Sharks game is over. GO SHARKS!

Take a nap before the game. It always helps me.

Unfortunately, I’ll be on a plane and driving back from LAX until right before the game starts. I guess I could try to nap on the plane, but 1 hour isn’t much time.

Not even close

First all-nighter I’ve pulled since junior year of high school. I usually go to bed around midnight or 1am, depending the the day.

Made me smile.

Sort of a “Da Bears” riff you got going eh?

“Da Sharks will winn 16 -2. I tink da Nooks will give them a game.”

“Da Sharks!”.

Thanks for the laugh. I think it should be a good game, whomever wins, myself.

And we have taken to calling him Orr-hoff or Blast-off in Vancouver.

Well, not sure about missy, but I think its safe to say that we love him…lotsa points and goals, and he is a +11-13 or something like that…

Because of the holiday, I missed all Sharks hockey since Tuesday. Some may say that’s a good thing, but I need some hockey.

Yeah

It’s amazing that there’s only been one game since Tuesday. I would have expected there would be two games, but who can tell with the wacky scheduling.

But still, you missed the game with Marleau’s hatty. That sucks.

Yeah, and I’m glad that I didn’t have third row tickets to that non game. And that I didn’t have to sit in front of a group of drunk Hawks fans in my first visit to the Tank since the State of the Sharks. Yup, glad that never happened.

Spread Offense success

D looked really good – pressured Garrard throughout the game. Coulda ended up with 2 more picks as well (Lawson and Spikes come to mind).
Neutralized Jones-Drew and Sims-Walker.
However, Gore with only 33 yards on 16 rushes is of serious concern IMO.

But now, it’s Sharks time.

I think Erhoff misses the net 14 times.

While hitting the post four times.
