Happy 40th Birthday (a little late) Martin Brodeur

Happy Foxy 40th Martin Brodeur! I might be a day late but don’t think I missed your game winning awesome play! Welcome to the Foxy 40 club with Teemu Selane, Mike Modano (before he retired) and some others. As you might have guessed, I’m not a really big fan of teams in general per se, I don’t […]

Birthday Boy: Jonathan Toews

Happy 24th birthday, Tazer! Captain Fill-in-the-Blank, fearless leader of the Chicago Blackhawks, is celebrating a birthday.  Do you think he eats cake?  I think he does today.  A whole cake, in front of the TV, yelling at the Flyers/Devils game sounds about right.  I might do the same – you know, in solidarity.  Then we […]

Happy Birthday Kris Letang – Disney Prince

Since Pants loves to blame her Caps obsession on me, I can only return the favor by blaming my Kris Letang obsession on her. I would have NEVER known about ANY Pittsburgh Penguin EVER if she hadn’t e-mail bombed me relentlessly photos of Kris Letang. And now I am helpless, helpless I tell you. So a WUYS HAPPY 25th […]

Birthday Boy: Steven Stamkos

I think it’s safe to say you all know how I feel about Steven Stamkos.  I don’t run away from just anyone in the street!  Well today is Stammer’s 22nd birthday… as if I needed an excuse to gush. He’s handsome. He’s charming. And he has excellent friends. But I digress.  Steven also has the […]

Happy Birthday, Tyler Seguin!

Dear Tyler, I hope you will accept my sincerest apologies for the lateness of these birthday wishes but I swear I didn’t forget about you.   That’s just not possible. You’re my lobstah. Especially when you dress up nice… And when you sing so pretty…   And when you crack up laughing… And when you get […]

Birthday Boy: John Carlson

Happy Birthday, iCarly!  John is 22 today. (Shamelessly recycling this post for John’s 23 birthday.) iCarly was born outside of Boston (represent!) and grew up in New Jersey.  We can’t explain the math but this makes us love him even more.  In the 2010 World Junior Championship vs. Canada, John had two goals including the […]

Happy Birthday Drew "touched by god" Doughty

You heard me right! Our wonder boy also got the midas touch this year with holding out for major contract ca$h to the ca-ching of $56 million over 8 years for my beloved #8. That post already went over how many donuts that would buy him. Today he turns a whopping 22 – OMG – December […]

Birthday Boy: Nick Backstrom

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, NICKY B! Thank you to @thisisourjamdc for reminding the zombies here at WUYS that today is the 24th birthday of our favorite Swede, Piglet Nicklas Backstrom. We worked till 2:30 AM, were up for work at 5:30 AM.  We both travel at the crack of dawn tomorrow.  This is the only reason Gator […]

Birthday Boy: Luke Schenn

This is a day late.  Sorry!  But we’ve had a few requests for some Leafs love around here and I didn’t want to miss the perfect reason. Happy 22nd birthday, Luke Schenn! For his birthday, Luke had a fight in the game vs. New Jersey last night.  It’s pretty much a draw, but the Leafs […]

Birthday Boy: Mike Green

Happy 26th Birthday, Mike Green!  People born between October 11 & 12 are especially awesome, wouldn’t you agree?  We should get today off work in DC, since we had to work Columbus Day. Alleged discovery of North American continent? Who cares. Obvious location of Mike Green World Domination HQ?  Approved. We could post the Cribs […]

С Днем Рождения Александра Овечкина! Happy Birthday Alexander Ovechkin!

So let’s face it, finding shirtless photos of Alexander Ovechkin is like finding a penny on a street. You feel pretty lucky, a little richer but it’s not completely unusual! But you know you’re gonna pick it up and I KNOW you’re gonna look ladies! Try as you might, you can’t resist the magical, magnetic […]

Birthday Boy: Jordan Staal

It’s JStaal’s birthday!  Jordan turns 17 today (okay 23).  He got a birthday post last season, but we never get tired of this guy.  And he knows it. Last season, Jordan has some injury issues.  He might be as clumsy as me and Chuck, but we’re not 6’4″ and don’t have quite so far to […]

Birthday Boy: James Neal

Happy 24th birthday to the Nealmobile!  James Neal is 24 today.  And this season he’s going to score 250 goals alongside Crosby. An exhaustive three minute Google search revealed that James like The Wedding Crashers, vanilla ice cream and music by Dierks Bentley.  I believe that’s playing in my car right now. Hey, this video is […]

Birthday Boy: Sidney Crosby

The One and Only turns 24 today.  Somewhere in Nova Scotia, he’s as anxious to get back to us as we are to him.  He’s been writing, but Mike Green keeps intercepting the mail (we never should have let him watch The Notebook). You can love Sid (me) or hate him (Dawn), but thanks to […]

Birthday Boy: Zach Parise

Zach Parise is 27 today, which incidentally is my favorite number ever on a Devils sweater (Niedermayer!).  I was about to abbreviate Zach’s name to ZP, but I think I’ll just call him Zippy from now on. Zippy wants a contract for his birthday.  He and the Devils are scheduled for arbitration on Wednesday.  Zach […]

I Was Told There'd Be Cake

Birthday Boy: Brooks Laich

Happy 28th Birthday, Brooks!  So nice of you to tell us exactly what gift you want.  But you should be getting a new contract. Of all the Caps, you’re the one I feel the least bad about liking.  Well, you and Nicky B (because not liking Nicky is the same as not liking ice cream […]

Birthday Boy: Milan Lucic

Happy 23rd birthday, Looch! An exhaustive 3-minute Google search revealed these reasons you should root for Milan and the Bruins [link]: If asked, he would be on Dancing with the Stars. Armageddon makes him cry.  US TOO! At karaoke, he sings “Beer for My Horses” by Toby Keith. Oh, and there’s the beard.  And the Cup Final. […]

Birthday Boy: Jonathan Toews

Our beloved Captain Serious turns 23 today.  Best guess is that he’s facedown next to six or eight empty DiGiorno Pizza & Breadsticks boxes and a pile of Yoo-Hoo bottles.  But we’re here to tell Tazer there’s no need to be sad. As Foxy Friday alum and Undisputed Heavyweight Champion of the Derp, Jonathan Toews […]

Birthday Boy: Kris Letang

Happy Birthday, Kitty! Everyone’s favorite Disney prince turns 24 today.  Let’s hope he celebrates with a Game 6 win against the Lightning tomorrow night. (Go Pens!) Kris had a career year in 2010-2011.  He was the top vote-getting D for the All-Star Game, and all the votes were write-in!  My interns really rocked that one.  […]
