The USA-Czech Republic game is at 9PT/Noon ET and I'll actually be working from home today. So stop on by and discuss that game, don't be a troll, and have fun. GO USA!
It was worse when I worked overnight shifts and I didn't have a DVR. I remember when I still lived in Reno, the Giants were playing a series in San Juan against the Expos and there was a huge rainstorm there that delayed the game a few hours. I woke up around noon thinking the game was well underway or had been completed. Turned out it hadn't even started.
When I worked for Coors and had to get up at 4 in the morning, I never could finish watching Giants games that started at 7:00. Thankfully I don't have that job anymore.
I'll actually probably be in and out of this thread early.
ReplyDeleteI'll be on my lunch break during the 2nd period of the game. It'll be like a mid-week Giants game when they play day games on the East Coast.
ReplyDeleteThose day games on the East Coast always freak me out. "What do you mean? I can listen to a Giants game at 9:30 in the morning?"

DeleteI wonder how you guys handled it when the Giants played in DC on the 4th of July a couple of years ago with that 11 am DC start.
DeleteThose are the best start times. Wake up and there's baseball!
DeleteWhat a shot! 1-0 USA
ReplyDeleteWow, van Riemsdyk! 1-0!
ReplyDeleteSean McDonough's brother just scored a goal for the opposite team. Tied at 1.
ReplyDeleteNice job McDonagh.
ReplyDeleteIf an Olympic tournament can have a "trap game" this is probably the ideal game and opponent.
ReplyDeleteI like the Czech's red pants.
ReplyDeleteDoc's voice sounding a little rough.
ReplyDeleteHe used too much of his voice during that shootout.
DeleteDustin Brown!
ReplyDeleteAmazing it is 2-1 USA after the fact they've been outplayed for gobs of this period.
ReplyDeleteDustin Brown is still a son of perdition.
ReplyDeleteBackus!
ReplyDeleteGame over.
ReplyDeleteWhat the hell does the boards at Joe Louis Arena have to do with anything, Pierre?
ReplyDeleteSo how soon before we can all consider the matchup against Canada?
ReplyDeleteKris is already considering it.
DeleteIn the meantime, Canada and Latvia are tied at 1.
ReplyDeleteGo Latvia!
DeleteIt's definitely over now.
ReplyDelete4-1 USA!
ReplyDeleteThis Canada/Latvia game has the feel of a 1/16 March Madness game.
ReplyDeleteGod I want Latvia to win so badly.
ReplyDeleteI just got a cheque for $500.
ReplyDeleteSometimes people don't believe me when I tell them about how much you can earn by taking paid surveys online...
So I took a video of myself actually getting paid over $500 for filling paid surveys to set the record straight.
