Thanks Kool! My next post here will either end with a :) or a :( lets see what transpires!

Series over! Pittsburgh 6 Washington 2! We win the series 4 games to 3 and await to see who we play in the conference finals. :)

Whey-hey! Congratulations Larry...sounds like a fairly easy win, so I take it you have some finger nails left, ha ha!

Thanks Kool my fingernails took the night off! In a few days they will be tested again!

Well here goes! Game one is tonight Monday night!:confused2:

Two games in the book! My team is up 2 games to 0 in a best of 7! :)

Sounds like it's going your way Larry...but remember - it ain't over till the fat lady sings, ha ha!

So true Kool! So very true!

Saturday night. Pittsburgh 6 Carolina 2! My team is up 3 games to 0. :)

Sounds like the fat lady may be clearing her throat!

Game #4 is at the away arena. If the fat lady farts game #5 will be at home and maybe then she will sing.

The fat Lady sang Tuesday night! Pittsburgh 4 Carolina 1. Pitt wins 4 games to 0. Its off to the Stanley Cup Finals! :):)

Here we go again! lol! In my previous post i updated the situation! :)

Nice one Larry...I've just seen my team win the FA Cup & went to the game. A great day...& the evening celebrations weren't bad either! Good luck my man!

Kool thats awesome Congrats to you & your team! Thats great! Celebrate!!!! Now i have my task ahead as we are now playing the best team in the league as of the past few years. Fingers are crossed! :)

Cheers Larry...a great night was had by all!

Sounds like the final will be a tough one, but it'll make it even sweeter if you beat the favourites...er, who are the favourites anyway?!

The other team is the favorite to win. But ours is good! We shall see.

My team is down 2 games to 1 with a chance to even it up Thursday at home. My fingers and toes are crossed! Detroit 2 wins so far, Pittsburgh 1 in a best of 7 games. Its a race for 4 wins!

All sounds a bit tense Larry...it's squeaky bum time (as we say in Blighty!)

Yes it is! Sports are talent, a bit of luck, a lucky bounce, and momentum so anything can and usually does happen! Fingers are crossed!

Series now tied at 2 games each! Fingernails are gone and i am now working my way to the first knuckles!

Kool you seem to be at least marginally interested so i have an update. My team Pittsburgh lost Saturday night so we are now behind 3 games to 2. With game 6 in the series here at home Tuesday to force a final game 7 at Detroit only if we win to tie it at 3 games each. Forget the finger nails and hands i am now nibbling at my elbows! lol!
