...really man? How is anyone not absolutely baffled at the unnecessary attention Luo's comment is getting? He said nothing wrong, nothing disrespectful. Practically part of the SAME sentence he complements Thomas by saying "he might make some saves that I won't". That article really comes off as childish, just needlessly stirring the pot.

EDIT: hahah, and naturally the article is from the toronto star.

Um, here's the video:


"Um, it's not hard if you're playing in the paint so...." -smirk- "...it's an easy save for me, but if you're wondering out and aggressive like he does, I mean, that's gonna happen, so ah...."

And then he decides that maybe he should be less jerky, so he says the "he might make some saves that I won't" part.

So what if that commentary (not an article) is from the Star? It pretty much describes how difficult it has been for people outside of Vancouver to fully embrace the Canucks.

Wow bravo, you really seem to be inside Luo's head! Don't know how you're seeing a smirk, that's digging deep. If I was to call it anything, maybe a light shrug?
 
The age of making more out of everything. Should we dig deeper into Tim Thomas "forgetting" Lapierre's name also?

Honestly, if Luongo wanted to take a shot at Thomas, he'd be more straight up than that.

People need to chillax a little and watch the series. Neither team has reasons to be upset with the other.

B-b-but did you hear what luo said?

^^^^Gotta get through game 6 first. ;)


Just when you thought you couldn't dislike Luongo any more, this happens:

He's making it really difficult for me to cheer against the Bruins.

I knew you'd come around bud!!! You know the cheer :)

Yes, since we are generalizing I'm sure I can come with a few but I wouldn't want to disrespect my friend Surely - because obviously he would be the exception to the comment I would make about lack of... Get a clue.

The problem with Luongo's comment had nothing to do with his stupid quote about how he would have had that one (of course impossible to know). The problem is the whining about how he didn't get an atta boy. Grow up.

Obviously his play has been good/timely enough to get them where they are now. If he wins the Vezina I'll eat my hat.

^^^^Good point. That was just strange.

Geez, to see you eat a hat, give the Vezna to Luongo!:p

Thanks. I'm in there Tuesdays, Fridays, and alternate Sundays. Fortunately for us all, this was my Sunday.:rolleyes:

Shrug, smirk....same idea. It was an unnecessary way to answer that question. You don't get to decide whether I think it was a stupid thing to say or not.

Talk about being defensive......

I'm pretty sure both teams have quite a bit to be upset with each other about.:confused:

Wait, I just thought of something:

Luongo is from Montreal, which is in Quebec. Quebec is always like: "Why won't the rest of Canada recognize how special I am?:("

Plus, my wife grew up in Montreal, and she's always asking me to tell her how amazing she is.

Coincidence? I think not.;):p

/jokes

I don't know what that means.:confused:



Funny.

:DOh, and she's a redhead.:D

no teasing. ;)

Mooney: are you going to game 6?

You got it. One of the local ticket places offered me $3700 for my tix before game 5. Probably a bit lower now. But - I can't do it. Never been to an SC final game. Mrs. MooneyFlyer and I are donning the colors and heading in tomorrow. When the faceoffs are in the left most near circle I'll be in the shot - row 7

That's awesome. I'll try to look for you (although not knowing what you look like means you could make that difficult:p). Just don't be the guy who gets up and waves both of his arms at the camera every single time the puck is in your end. Don't be that guy.:D

I'll be the guy beating the **** out of that guy. :eek:

My wife is blonde and much more noticeable and better looking than I (aren't all of our wives?) - I'll be the dumbass next to her. :eek:
 
Surely said:
Good. I hate that guy.



*look for hot blonde* - check.:p

Have a great time, man.

In the Seguin shirt :(. Half my age, much better shape, richer, and on the Bruins - I'm doomed.

Should be fun, thx!! If I knew how to post from my phone I'd send something from the game.

Seguin, eh? Never heard of him.


All you'd need is a photo upload app like imgur or Photobucket (plus an account, of course). I usually use Photobucket....it's pretty easy and they provide an image url.
