Vote For Teppo - Support Is Building

Just a reminder, voting opens tomorrow for the all-star game!  Vote your favorite players in, and leave a slot there for Teppo Numminen!  A vote for Teppo is a Vote for former Winnipeg Jets!  I’ll have the link up tomorrow.  Here’s what Sabres.com has to say:

“After he recovered from it I saw him skate and I knew it wasn’t over,” defenseman Toni Lydman said. “Especially after I saw him play in the final game of the regular season last year it was obvious to me that he would come back. You could tell he just wanted to play so bad. You could see it in his face – he still had that sparkle in his eyes.”

By the way, sick Wings/Pens game tonight.  Jordan Staal and what’s-his-name that wins all the faceoffs killed the Red Wings.  Thanks to Wysh/Puck Daddy for a fun liveblog.

WTF? Favre was traded??

Monday Night Football crew, say it ain’t so?  I had no idea that shit already went down?  Hmph!

So yeah, that’s what the new downloadable cover of Madden 09 looks like for those who care about the athlete being the right jersey on the cover of your games.  But, EA Sports, where’s my new DVD label?  WHAT ABOUT THAT???   Seriously, Happy Madden Day everybody.  Enjoy the rash of call-offs tomorrow.

Our Long National Nightmare Is OVER

Brett Favre has been traded to the New York Jets for a conditional draft pick.  Chad Pennington was said to have thrown his helmet in frustration at the news, but it wobbled through the air and fell short of actually hitting his locker by 3 yards.  This is interesting for the Bills, as the Jets were probably going to be pretty easy to beat this year…still might be as the Jets’ other skill players aren’t exactly threatening.  I’ll have to log in to Madden later and see if I can screen-cap Favre in the Jets colors.

edit:  awww man, both Deuce of Davenport and Awful Announcing used this title.  Great minds, etc.
