Around SBN: Jeremy Lin And How The Pac-12 Missed Him

Carolina making the playoffs


So I made a couple bets with you guys regarding the 'Canes making the playoffs.

 

Fehr and Balanced and I have a carbomb wagered. And who was it that I bet the fun of having to change the other's avatar for a while month?

 

I'm about to close the books after tonight. Anyone else wanna' get in on this? Maybe someone having to wear a "I <3 Crosby" tshirt to the next game?

Am I to understand you believe the Canes will make it to the Playoffs this year? If that’s the case, name your price, I’m in.

We could just do a carbomb by default. I’ve never gone to any rink meetings while watching games but if I’m already going to have to come out of the dark to pay for one…

by Brainumbc on Mar 15, 2010 10:03 AM EDT up reply actions  

Sold. And for the record I haven’t been to one yet either. Though between you and D’oh it’s already shaping up to be a good evening.

by Yoshietree on Mar 15, 2010 10:13 AM EDT up reply actions  

Deal. I got two for carbombs.

by Brainumbc on Mar 15, 2010 10:42 AM EDT up reply actions  

I’ll bet you a carbomb that the Canes don’t make the playoffs if it’s not too late!

Oh yea. I thought the CAR/BOS game was last night. I was wrong

by Brainumbc on Mar 16, 2010 8:51 AM EDT up reply actions  

They are in 14th in the division. 8 points out with the 8 seed holding a game in hand. And they need to jump 6 teams to do it. Not. Happening.

Killer_Carlson and Steckel Me Elmo are like brothers to me. And when I say brothers I don't mean like actual brothers. I mean it like how black people use it, which is more meaningful, I think.

Then you better work on your gag reflex.

I’ve never been beaten in a carbomb race

Yeah, I guess a guy that eats poo would be able to suppress a gag reflex.

Seems like a no-brainer to me.

what’s that site again for determining a team’s playoff chances?

by Brainumbc on Mar 15, 2010 11:02 AM EDT up reply actions  

0.9% (which is obviously a flawed number, but since you asked)

Don't forget

The wager of you not posting for a month as well….

I said I’d do that if I could find 5 people to wear tshirts to a playoff game that read something like “brainumbc is the mac daddy”.. or whatever it was

by Brainumbc on Mar 15, 2010 11:34 AM EDT up reply actions  

with visual confirmation of shirt being worn at game :)

F&B, Yoshietree,.. anyone else wanna step up and make dreams come true??

chop chop people … 4 more by 7pm

by Brainumbc on Mar 15, 2010 1:28 PM EDT up reply actions  

Speaking of which .. that game tonight could be the nail in the coffin if the Canes lose. The Bruins are #8 right now.

by Brainumbc on Mar 15, 2010 1:29 PM EDT up reply actions  

I’m not paying for the shirt but I’ll wear one.

Bah. 2 bucks for a hanes and a sharpie

by Brainumbc on Mar 15, 2010 1:48 PM EDT up reply actions  

All bets must be in before the start of the game vs the Bruins (a team they’re chasing)

by Brainumbc on Mar 15, 2010 11:38 AM EDT reply actions  

Just to make things interesting, I really hope Brainumbc wins these bets.

I want to see you in a “Brainumbc is a mac daddy” t-shirt.

I don’t. You really want to see CAR in the first round?

by Rob Parker on Mar 15, 2010 1:33 PM EDT up reply actions  

Doesn’t really matter to me who we face in the first round. If we can’t beat the Canes then we don’t deserve the cup

by Brainumbc on Mar 15, 2010 1:48 PM EDT up reply actions  

If the Caps can’t beat the four teams they need to to win the Cup, they they don’t deserve the Cup.

Let's go Caps!

by MikeL-Pivonka on Mar 15, 2010 1:55 PM EDT up reply actions  

Yea man. Besides. If there were any team in the SE I’d be worried about.. it would be TB more than Carolina

by Brainumbc on Mar 15, 2010 1:58 PM EDT up reply actions  

Not with Smith and Shiittiiwackii in net.

Boston beat Carolina. Ouch… my chances.. they hurt

You might be mathematically eliminated by the pickup game on the 27th, at this pace.

Team that worries me most this postseason...

Tampa Bay, Followed closely by Ottawa. I know it sounds crazy, when I could have said Pittsburgh, New Jersey, Buffalo, I chose the team that’s not even in the 8th seed yet, but if they win the majority of their remaining games and Boston and Philly start losing (which is very likely), we might be playing the Bolts in the first round, and they are giving us problems this year.

Evgeny Kuznetsov hams it up as he joins the Russia men's national team for the "Sweden Games" leg of the Euro Hockey Tour in Helsinki, Finland.

There's a bit of controversy as their game against the Finns is scheduled to be played in Helsinki's outdoor Olympic Stadium.   Where the daytime temps are currently approximately minus-15 degrees Celsius, with periodic heavy snow.

This interview with head coach Zinetula Bilyaletdinov is fascinating, as he frets about the weather and especially when the reporters press him on the leaked reports that Kuznetsov will be centering the top line for Team Russia, just weeks after his 20th birthday.
