Project Mayhem

In baseball, players get to choose the song that plays when they come up to bat.  Sometimes they have a different song for each time through the rotation.  Since you can’t play a song very time someone jumps over the boards, we thought we could give them another anthem: fight songs. My brain goes immediately […]

Drop it like it's Gronk

Dude, remember that time Jordan Staal knocked you to the ice with a single punch?  You went down like shot of tequila.  From here it looked like this: Staalsy got a 5-minute major, then a match penalty.  He’s automatically suspended for the Penguins next game unless the NHL intervenes.  We say Prust could steal Natalie […]

Ovechtrick and Other Hot News.

The Caps had a great weekend! Nicky B. dropped his scoring drought-o-rama and Ovi has his 1oth career hat trick! Cheers all around! They held on to beat Toronto after the heart breaking loss last time when they were up 4-1. Holtby was in net and did an awesome job. Sorry kids but these two photos were just too awesome not […]

Go Play Outside

The ‘stache is gone. Hallelujah. [Video] Somebody looks like a sleepy puppy.  Also, I really like this sweatshirt.  Not a great sign that it’s all he needs to wear outside in December, but hey.  They skated and the game is on (for now). Bonus: Jordan lost the shootout and had to run to the upper […]

We Feel Pretty

On Sunday, the Penguins were down 3-0 to the Senators in the 3rd period.  But the power of the mustache prevailed – Crosby got a goal with 3+ minutes left to keep the streak (and the stache) alive. I have to say Sid must drink a lot of milk because his skin is amazing. [Today’s […]

24/7 Episode 2: "Adorkable"

My girl Kimmy has coined the perfect phrase to describe Mike Green, Sid and half the rest of the Pens and Caps on HBO’s 24/7 Episode 2: ADORKABLE. It’s absolute perfection. If I had the setup, I would have stayed up ALL night screencapping   Until then, here are the highlights that I can remember screaming […]

Winter Classic Wake-Up Call

The Penguins unveiled their Winter Classic jerseys today.  If you live out West, the game is on at 10 AM.  That’s technically still New Year’s Eve in my book, but frankly what a way to ring it in!  Crosby, Staal, Letang, Talbot, Flower (hopefully) and throw in some Mike Green… I can wake up for […]

Hats Off – Hockey Hair

Mike!  I told you the fight was plenty, and the sweaty Ovi workout shirt you stole for Dawn.  Please stop lavishing me with gifts for our joint birthday celebration.  Good thing it’s over, I’m not sure what else you might do. Caps TV did a totally boring Mike Green birthday segment in which Mike showed […]

Hump Day Hopeful

Before giving me the password to anything, you should have considered that inside my brain, it usually looks like this:     I get *really* excited *really* easily.  So last night while Chilean miners were being pulled from the center of the Earth, I was screaming at the Avs/Wings shootout.  Not because I don’t care, […]

Birthday Party, You're Invited

We interrupt your regularly scheduled episode of Mike Greek Paid for This for a special occasion – Happy Birthday to Everyone!  Okay, not everyone – Happy Birthday Pants (today) and Mike Green (tomorrow). For my birthday, Mike decided to roll up his sleeves and fight Ilya Kovalchuk on Saturday night.  It wasn’t a great fight […]

In today’s top stories…

Here at WUYS, we delight in carrying the banner for you.  While wearing short pants and jaunty caps, perhaps with a choreographed dance routine (remixed to Lady Gaga?)  From the Morning News Desk:  T-minus 3 weeks until the season starts! 1) Penguin’s forward Jordan Staal will miss the start of the regular season after another […]

Go Staalsy, it's your birthday.

Happy 22nd birthday, Jordan Staal! So you didn’t grow up next to the Staal’s sod farm in Thunder Bay, Ontario? Neither did we – and they don’t make ‘boys next door’ like this in the US. Jordan’s done a lot in his 22 years: drafted 2nd overall, in his rookie year he was the youngest […]
