New Blog: Backing the Pack for NC State Fans!


I ran into a clown at SBUX this morning

Star-divide

So I'm at Starbucks this morning and I run into a guy in a Whiny Diver sweater. (I'd upload a pic, but SBN doesn't allow it.)

 

Wanna-be Whiny Diver is behind me in line -- prime Whiny Diver attack position -- so I turned around and said, "Look, you're not wearing a visor so I know you're not going to jump me. But don't even think about sucker punching me in the 'nads, OK?"

He got mad and said something to the effect that I just wished my team was as good as the Pens. I laughed and reminded him that the Pens are not currently a playoff team, and that the Caps are one of the best teams in the league. I was tempted to suggest that he go wash his mullet-in-the-making, but he put his iPod buds in and tried to ignore me.

When you wear a powder-blue Whiny Diver jersey with a “Winter Classic” patch and an emergent mullet, you’re asking for it.

i despise that jersey.

I despise the player. He is dishonorable and he disgraces and fails to respect the game, his opponents and the officials.

I maintain if the Pens wore powder blue all the time, I’d hate them significantly less than the Flyers.

Have you seen the others?

Personally, I like the baby blue. Traditionalist, I guess. Also, cause fuck the steelers.
