No, it's not. But I can't find the cat too much at fault. Guys are overly sensitive about that area.

Such a wicked kick though.

I haven't been following hockey that closely these past two weeks (because life), but I understand that the Ducks might not be the pushovers we expect. They've won 2 games in a row and 5 of their previous 10. We could be in for an unpleasant surprise this afternoon.

That said, I'm keeping my paws crossed. Go Jets Go!

We'll need more than paws crossed if the Ducks hit their potential. We need to have a fast, spirited start and not one of those lazy-ass games where half the team phones it in. If the right version of the Jets shows up we can handle Ducks easy. If we get a sluggish start recovering from New Years then we get that "unpleasant surprise" right in the balls.

Best cat video of 2025!

I'm kinda partial to this one too.

Why am I not surprised?

Then again, if you're really into cute cats without violence involved, check out this Pocket Tiger:

Time now to struggle out of bed and hit the shower. Bring out all your Elmer Fudd suspicions today because these Ducks could be very, very sneaky.

Sorry, two weeks on the rain coast and my time sense shifts. I'll get it back tomorrow.

Regardless, I'm already spoken for today and will have to miss the game whenever it starts, but I have a sense of foreboding that we may end up being roughly ducked over.

Meh. This is still my favorite cat:

Surrounded by popcorn.

What happens tomorrow? I think I'm running slower than everyone else today.

Your right about us having to work tonight or we're gonna get a major ducking.

WE WANT SOULBEAR!!!!

 

[Flyby]

WE WANT SOULBEAR!!!!

No way!! Hooslis are awesome and we win more often than not when they sing. And much much better than Stacey!
Personally, not a big fan of Soulbear.

 

[The Blue Baron]

I will be heading there tonight as well as Saturday so yah the Baron supports dis’ shit!

Tree Smashing Touba would be especially invigorating!

Video reminded me of this from Weird Al’s UHF

Side note: hard pass on Soul “fat guy” Bear.

If you like middle of the road food BP and Tavern United are a hop skip and a jump away.

Browns socialhouse is pretty good too.

Great burgers but the place has gotten expensive.

The lady behind him to the right was having a great time

Ya i agree but i have a tougher time paying over 40 bucks for a pizza at Boston Pizza.

 

[spiny norman]

I just found out that I'll be attending the game tonight.

The day of a $20+ burger has arrived

 

[Howard Chuck]

I have had great burgers and beer at the tipsy cow across portage.

 

[Mortimer Snerd]

Ahh the good old Pavelec days. Man are we lucky to have Helly now, go from one of the worst goalies to one of if not the best goalie in the league.

Fixed it for ya.

No need to be wishy washy about it. You are not a professional broadcaster with an obligation to be neutral, like those SN guys.

What happens tomorrow is that I return to EST.

Ride to the airport with baby sister, check-in by 11, lunch together, fly out at 1:15. Non-stop Westjet gets to Pearson about 9. Friends are shopping in the city tomorrow and have offered to pick me up after dinner and drive me home, where it's forecast to snow steadily for the next week. Sigh.

After the emotional crash on Saturday morning and starting the laundry, I'll be looking forward to FINALLY watching a full, live Jets game when we clash with Detroit.
