Bruins Win. Pretty Cool.
-- You're a part of history now, boys. Thank you. Been a long time around here. Thank you so much to everyone in the organization for allowing us to watch, and revel in your glorious run. You earned it: All your names are going on the most hallowed trophy in sports, forever and ever.
-- I know Roenick isn't really a Bostonian, but he did play high school at Thayer Acadamy. Why the fuck wasn't he in tears after the game? The man cries whenever anyone else wins the Cup, but not us? Screw him. Some genuine emotion would have been nice from JR. That's what happens when your old man moves the family around a zillion times when you're a kid: you don't know who to root for.
-- They booed the shit out of Bettman, didn't they? Hockey fans know why, but uninformed Americans may not know that Bettman has always pushed the American cities at the expense of Canadian towns for television purposes. Hilarious. And Emrick didn't even acknowledge the boos. That's not quality announcing: everyone knew something was going on, but not everyone knew why. It should have been explained.
-- September ain't that long aways, boys. Sorry to say but the other teams have the jump on summer conditioning by a month or two. It's a fact of life. The seasons roll on no matter what. Enjoy the nice weather but don't get too fucking fat. We fans don't want to wait another 39 years to witness this stuff. Because in four decades I'll be in my 80s and probably deaf and senile. Not everyone ages as gracefully as Milt Schmidt, who could have probably given Julien a shift or two last night.
-- Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, boys.
