I had no idea there was a "ring ceremony night" for the NFL in June.... seems weird.

Do people pay to watch that?

I mean... I soaked up all I could of the Royals' WS win, went to the parade, etc.... but, revisiting it with a ring thing 5 months later without at least getting an opening day game or something seems... odd. :-)

calling a team cheaters, that's rich Boston.

Well, basically.

Was given the green light by Mrs. OTW to go to Game 6. If I wait until they win Thursday night, the ticket might cost $2k. Or, if I wait and they lose - I save $1200.

Or, I buy now and if they win G5 I'm in the door at the cheapest price to see a potential Cup Skate...

Pulled the trigger today before puck drop for $1250.

Cheapest ticket after fees is currently $2100 on Vivid Seats.

HOLY FUCK THE BLUES ARE 60 MINUTES FROM WINNING THE STANLEY CUP

I'm making the drive to be back in STL for Sunday.

I'll be at Wheelhouse.

Please don't pull a 1967-2018 St. Louis Blues, Blues.

No idea. Patriots have done it every year they've won. The problem is I think that it takes months to get all those rings designed and made. Kraft has hosted a party right around minicamp/OTAs after the draft to give them out. I have no idea what other organizations do, or what they do in other sports. I admit to never hearing about it in other sports, or other Boston teams. :-)

Acciari is a crying pussy and so is his coach.

I hate complaining about refs, and the Bruins have had their issues, especially 5 on 5, but that was a rough no-call.

Patriot fan complaining about the refs. :-)

Blues are just a better team 5 on 5. Why are the Bruins, their fans and the media so salty about it?

I expect about 10 PP’s for massholes in game 6. I hope the PK is up for it.

That's what I fear, and I'm just as concerned about their PK as anybody.

Blues win the cup on a shorty. Only thing better would be a Chiefs Super Bowl win. :-)

Barbashev is getting a hearing from the league on his check. You can’t make this shit up. Bruins have notoriously been a dirty franchise but can’t stand another team punching them in the mouth.

Marchand should get one on his attempted low bridge of Tarasenko late in the 3rd but we know that won't happen....God I hate that guy.

Marchand is the dirtiest player in the NHL...that stick to the balls of Binny was pure crap!!

Barbashev might miss both games of the series as the makeup for the trip.

Acciari should have been called for a dive, it was a trip by Bozak, but you can see Acciari use his right leg to push off to embellish the call...

No proof of this, but that's why I think the ref didn't call it, he saw the dive and assumed it was Acciari flopping...
