We made the trip and got to see Aces win the Cup in Game 5. It was a sporting highlight for me because I haven't been to too many championships, not since the 1970s era Oakland A's anyway.

Yeah, it was definitely a bummer. Even though it wasn't the NHL, we were really good for an ECHL team and you could actually see hockey being played. With our team now, it makes me wonder if they even practice together of if they just show up at the games.
I went to a few playoff games with the IceGators, but they flopped a lot in the first few rounds. I even remember one time they were up 3-0 in the series and lost 4 straight. So I never got to see a sports team win a championship in person. I'm sure that must have been an awesome experience.
Do you follow the NHL or just your ECHL team?

Favorite shotgun?

That is a manly question! Only shotgun I ever remember firing was a single-barrel Browning my Dad owned. Scared the crap out of me! We mostly went deer hunting, and I owned a .270 Remington at one time. Never got a deer and ended up selling it cheap. Now the only gun I have is a .44 Magnum that I bought for bear protection on a long kayak trip. First time I fired it, I missed the target 6 times in a row at 25 yards out. Didn't give my kayaking companions much confidence in my bear killing abilities. Fortunately, haven't had to fire that at a live target either.

I'm a fairweather NHL fan. I'll occasionally watch the playoffs, or I'll watch a game in which an Alaskan is playing. Scottie Gomez plays for the Canadiens, and we have a couple other players in the NHL. Haven't been to an NHL game since the 1970s when I lived in California. The Oakland Seals had a terrible team, but we'd go to see the big-name visitors.

The Aces used to play in the WCHL, and the team was run poorly. They did OK but never dominated and there wasn't much fan base. But new owners took over and really got the fans out. We'll get 3,000-4,000 every game and sell out 6,000-plus during the playoffs.

I was skeptical of the ECHL, but the quality of hockey has won me over. It doesn't hurt that we've won 2 Cups and lost another Game 7 since 2003-2004.

LOVE THAT GUN! killed my first two turkeys with it

i kinda like the man thread. (you watch out boys i'm a taxidermist's daughter, avid hunter and fisherwoman and i can tie a mean fly, row a mean canoe, pitch a tent (don't laugh you dirty minded fools), and lots of other outdoorswoman things you men like to do!

i am also a super fan of college football, love BBQ, what else do you need??

[Bitsy]

Steve, I actually thought of you the other day! And the "man" thread is a great place to share why...I watched my nephew swear into the Marines last week. SO PROUD of him! When I was a little girl I used to play Marines and pretend I was one! My father (who died when I was 2 months old) was a Marine and so was my step-father. He was my step-father from when I was 4 years old to 12. I really loved him and looked up to him. Sadly, he left us when I was 12 and I never heard from him again until about a year ago.

Go Marines!

That's awesome, and I'm impressed. However, I'm confident that I could belch you -- and any other woman -- under the table!
