When it mattered most, what did the Caps do tonight against the Sabres?
One word: C-H-O-K-E!!
5-1 your final.
That's all I'm saying tonight. I'm disgusted. Bring on baseball...
Being a lifelong Caps fan--and by that, I mean SINCE THE FRANCHISE BEGAN!!--I guess I needed a place to devote space to writing about them. Oh, and for the record, Joe Beninati coined the title of this blog in describing Ovechkin's sliding-on-his-belly goal a few years ago against Phoenix. Apt description, AIN'T IT?

Our season, shot to hell

Bandwagons: WHO the fuck needs 'em?
Normally, I wouldn't address anything like this...but after having spent the bulk of this night on Twitter, I have to.
Okay, so the Caps fucked up tonight against the Blackhawks (your final, 5-2 Chicago). It's a disturbing pattern, I admit. But what's even more disturbing is watching Caps fans (on Twitter) backbite one another.
And coming after ME...just because I dared to point out that the "old-school" white jerseys represent tradition...does not work for you!!
I have backed this franchise SINCE IT'S EXISTENCE, people!! That gives me the right to say what I want about the pathetic effort being showcased night after night by this Caps "team".
(Take a good hard look at the picture below. They could probably do better than what I'm seeing out of the Caps right now.)
There. I've vented enough for one night...
Strange night in Hershey
Almost 2 a.m. Sunday morning as I'm writing this. Got back 20 minutes ago from Hershey, where I saw the Bears eke out a 3-2 win (2-1 shootout).
Refereeing? Fucking atrocious--and that's being lenient. Tripping calls (Bears players being tripped, that is) right in front of me, and the ref not even looking at the play!!
Sloppy play on the Bears' part, but...it's still a win nonetheless.
(The picture, btw, is of the mascot Coco. I snapped it during the 2nd intermission.)

We're toast. Let's face REALITY, gang.
Let me see if I have this right. The Caps take a 2-0 lead on Carolina, give up 3 unanswered goals, come back in the 3rd period to tie it up...
And Mike Green can't get his stick up to deflect a 2-on-1 break??
I hate to break this to my fellow Caps fans, but...any shot we have at making the Stanley Cup playoffs went bye-bye tonight.
