wow. 50%. I stink
San Jose really fell on their face
colorado lost so my whole western conference chart is shot and i had to change up to Chicago. Still sticking with Anaheim, Boston, & Pittsburgh.
instead of colorado i'm going with anaheim to represent the western conference in the stanley cup

Round 2:

Minnesota                                            Boston
       in 6-|-Chicago                  Montreal-|-in 7       
Chicago--             |                  |          Montreal
                            |-Ana v Bost-|
Anaheim---           |                 |            Pittsburgh
         in 7-|- Los Angeles         NY Rangers|-in 7
Los Angeles                                            NY Rangers

1 out of four. that's why i don't gamble
Round 3:

Chicago-----|                                           |Montreal
            in 7-|---Los Angeles vs. NY Rangers--|-in 6

so now it's a classic L.A. vs. New York showdown that the U.S. gets in other sports like basketball, baseball, and north american football (when L.A. had a team)

closest they've had in NHL history dating back to 1893 was New Jersey vs. Anaheim in 2003 & LA Kings vs. New Jersey in 2012.
this is the first NY vs. LA championship game

New York has a good offense. L.A. seems better balanced all around on both sides of the puck

L.A. Kings over New York Rangers in 5

I'm rooting for the Rangers. Would be nice to see Lundqvist, Nash & MSL get the Cup (MSL already has one though). But getting past LA is gonna be a heck of a mountain to climb.

The Rangers are my favorite team so I'm rooting for them

But getting past LA is gonna be a heck of a mountain to climb.

Currently watching the opening match in football world championship.
Brazil vs Croatia.


Man, what an ambiance!
And clearly, these guys know how to play.
Can't imagine the pressure the guys on the Brazilian team are facing from the crowds 

[Puritan]

Germany vs Portugal 
(possible viewers= 2,700,000,000)

[Puritan]

Spain vs Chile


Looking good at half time, Fernando M

so why are there no Scandinavian teams?
snow too deep to kick a ball around, or is it just too hard to find a big enough flat piece of land?

We don't like games where battle axes and swords are not allowed 

[Forge]

sure.
probably the same reason canada doesn't have a team
your pets keep popping the ball

[Puritan]

Now:


USA - Germany 

[Forge]

USA is mediocre at best.

besides, I'd rather see Argentina or Belgium win

[High Treason]

Most honestly, I don't really care about soccer, but I am supporting the USA just because it annoys everyone who's into "Football" around here... More so now they are butthurt about losing horribly - I'm in England if you didn't know.
