Man, I wish Pyrizzle was still around as my 49ers are playing his Seahawks right now.

And my Canucks got crushed in Florida by both the Panthers and the Lightning after a great 7 game winning streak. Boy did that come to a sudden and cataclysmic stop.

So, any hockey fans out there?

[Tomcat]

Not as much as I used to be, no longer living in a town with a team, but I still root for my Sharks and Bruins when I can. That makes it a very mixed bag this season for me. :-/

Well my 49ers are one win away from going to the Super bowl! Pretty damn exciting.

I lived in SF Bay Area for 12 years, but never became a niner fan somehow, even though I did pick up and stick with some other area teams. It was the deBartolo era, and he just annoyed me. But now, they're fine - just another team.

Give Eddie his team back!!!

[Tomcat]

He probably wouldn't know how to do it if he's not allowed to simply outspend everyone else anymore

I'd describe that as turbulent.

While I'm a Canucks "fan" I'm more of a hockey fan in general. I like to watch a good game; lots of skating, passing, shots, saves, and goals. There's nothing worse than a hockey game the degrades into a clutch and grab fest. I do like the fact that the game has moved to a more pure skill style. It has made the game much more fun to watch compared to where it was in the mid '90's

[Tomcat]

Yeah, the NHL finally figured out that the international game was better to watch because they actually called penalties for constantly grabbing the other guy.

I don't miss the Left Wing Lock, either.

Let's go Niners
