Detroit Doesn't Lose!

I am happy to say, The Pistons, Tigers, Red Wings, and even the Lions, all did not lose yesterday!
Of course, none of them played yesterday which made my night revolve around Dirty Jobs and Versus' coverage of the Habs/Flyers series from Philly. Some call it a sickness, I just call it normal. Carey Price looked very much less than stellar but did cause a quick mini-brawl in the second period. Philly tough guy, Robert Downie kind of but not really tripped Price (very Roy-esque dive but I'll allow it) behind the net which caused a slight donnybrook in the corner. Price was pulled after the score got to 3-0. Philly did all they could to give this game away. Derian Hatcher (yeah he's still in the league) was sent home early after a nasty hit that resulted in a five minute major for boarding and a game misconduct, way to still be a goon Hatch. Habs would score twice on the ensuing five minute long powerplay but that's as close as it would get. Philly has a 2-1 lead in the series and if you haven't noticed, this is my favorite series to watch out of the East.

You want to know why the Pistons are lame? It starts at the top. You all know damn well Larry Brown would never carry a purse...(thanks Hot Clicks and Sports Hernia)



He looks like Sandra Bullock in Miss Congeniality.

More to come later...

Anyone who watches the Habs play on VS instead of on CBC cannot call himself a real hockey fan.
