Oh yeah, baby. . . It’s time for Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Finals. Devils & Ducks. Tied at 2 - 2 games each, and it’s on Jersey ice. This is definitely _must see TV_. Predictions? Which side of the fence are you on? Tripler I’ll keep you posted on the score. And my blood pressure. ---

Hee! You’re so cute when you get excited over sports. Lessee, I know next to nothing about sports when it comes to picking a winner. But using the old ‘which mascot would win in a fight’ I’ll go with the Devils. Unless their uniform colors are ugly, then it’s the Ducks for sure. Now that I’ve embarrassed all womankind, I think I’ll go polish my toenails or something. ---

Wooo! Go Elias! 2 - 1 Devils at 12:15 in the 1st! Woooooo! Tripler My sig explains who I’m rooting for. ---

Is this one of those things that pertain to “television” or “sports”, one or the other? ---

WA doesn’t have a local team, so I’d _like_ to see the Ducks win, just 'cause I get a kick out of their name (plus, the goalie has a cool hat). I’d bet the Devils are going to take the cup though; they’ve just been kinda kicking butt throughout the finals & it’d be surprising if the Ducks took it. A’course, the Devils winning will make my SO happy since they beat out “his” Bruins. 😉 ---

Haha, I’m such a girl - didn’t realise that game was last night and not today. 😛 ---

Thanks to sig-free browsing, I have no idea who you were rooting for. Though I’m guessing Devils from your woo hoo-ing. Did you end up happy? ---

From the thread title I thought you had some kinda static electricity thing going on with your TV. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by scout1222 \* > \*\*Did you end up happy? \*\* Quite. 6 to 3 was the final score. The Devils are ahead 3 games to 1, and taking it to Duck ice. . . Ought to be one hell of a game. Tripler My favorite words: “The Cup is in the building.”
