revenge in the great white north

if there is one thing i truly hate in sports is when the USA loses to Russia. in basically anything. and i have been frustrated beyond belief at the World Juniors the last 7 years. thankfully, yesterday was the day the USA decided to give Russia a taste of their own medicine. the USA won 3-2 over Russia yesterday to set up a HUGE game against Canada on New Year's Eve. the winner of that game wins the group and the loser gets no worse than 2nd place. that was one of the better victory beers in a long time.

the New York Rangers exploded last night with 4 power play goals (3 of which came from Matt Puempel) and defeated Arizona 6-3. you would have never known the game was tied at 3 with 5 minutes left. that was the first time a Rangers player had 3 power play goals in a game since 1994. maybe that's an omen. the Rangers next play on New Year's Eve in Colorado.

The Pizza Show last night on Viceland was pretty good. i do love me some good Chicago pizza.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be absolutely nothing.

my sister and i are going to the Dayton Flyers basketball game this evening. it starts early since it is on national television (CBS Sports Network). it's the start of the A10 schedule against a very tough La Salle team. hopefully Dayton can get a win.

tomorrow will be a little crazy, and not just because it is New Year's Eve. Manchester United plays in the morning. the USA vs. Canada game in the WJC is in the afternoon. and then Ohio State plays Clemson that evening. i'm not exactly sure when the fuck i'll be on here, but i'm hoping for after the Manchester United game. i will have plenty to get off my chest as it will be the last blog of this god fucking awful year of 2016.

i hope this finds everyone well, fully stocked on booze and ready to fucking blow off some steam.

be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.

peace and chicken grease...
