This Is How You Remind Me
UGH. I hate Nickelback, but I couldn't help but immediately think of those words when I got the next two pictures in my email. We're all so desperate for hockey right now that it seems like there are signs popping up everywhere that are making us think about the Penguins, particularly the Kid.
Friend of The Show Rho M. sent in this picture for us. She said, "I just got back from NYC where I snapped this picture of another 'Crosby St.' ...but you'll notice this one is 'one way' - pointing to the right it's so 'the right way' and the little walking-man-dude is heading that direction too. Woot!"
Friend of The Show Julie M. sees this sign every day on her running route:
Switching gears a bit, Friend of The Show Jan M. sent in another drawing of our title man:
In addition to her latest drawing, Jan sent in a tip for us. Recall that we featured a clip from an upcoming DVD about the Saint called Sidney Crosby - On the Ice and Beyond. Well, you now you can preorder the DVD on Amazon.com. (As an added bonus, you save a couple dollars for preordering!)
Finally today, here is TSCS's Quote of The Day:

The quote is... so true. haha.
Yep, it's true what you said about seeing things that remind of us the Pens and Sid...that happens to me all the time, and unfortunately, none of my friends really understand, they all just look at me like I'm crazy. Oh well...
at least it's August now... :)
I am desperate for hockey and anything you post is great. I can't beleive you hate Nickelback. They are one of my favorite bands. (right behind Bon Jovi).
Great post. Love the quote. I'll keep my eyes open for a Crosby St. in my area!:-)
Great job again, Jan!
I have a carton of molasses in my cupboard that is called "Crosby's". Every time I open the pantry I'm reminded of how it's not hockey season!!! Actually, that's not true, it puts a little smile on my face everytime I see it.
Terri - good call with being a Bon Jovi fan. I went to the fifth (and final) concert they did in Toronto on the Lost Highway Tour. Turns out the next show they did was in Pittsburgh and our favorite man himself (I am talking about Sidney) went to that show!! I thought that was pretty cool!
I love the quote is great. Second, I wish I could see something about Sid but I haven't. It could be because I am in TX and Austin doesn't have an NHL team and is like ESPN, knows nothing about hockey. The picture, Jan, was again GREAT!! I can't wait for the season to get going, I think this is my hardest (and easiest cause of you Jodie)offseason EVER!!!
Jan that picture was phenomenal once again. His eyes were great in your drawing.. great job!!
It's almost time for hockey again. But it's not close enough yet. So sad :( I want cold.
Canadian, and still has a heckuva potty mouth.
...although you'd be hard-pressed to find a hockey player that DIDN'T swear and drop F bombs. It just wouldn't be the same to have a guy mic'ed up, miss the net by a half a centimeter, and loudly exclaim "oh SNAPdoodle!"
the quote is amazing
And lisa, I actually think I would laugh for days and be very entertained if ever I heard Sidney yell "oh SNAPdoodle!". Lol, thats just a great phrase you came up with, and I think all NHL players should adopt it :-P.
The funny thing is...they don't even need to be mic'd up for you to hear them...with all the mics on the boards, you can sometimes hear it anyway...it's the funniest when they're showing a real close up of someone's face and you can totally read their lips...FSN Pittsburgh does that a lot...
I don't know if anyone watched the US Open, but it was very clear that our favorite hockey hating golfer, Tiger Woods, was dropping the f bomb when he made that putt to send it into a playoff...and ESPN kept showing the clip over and over again...hilarious.
Amazing drawing, once again.
Man, I'm really missing hockey right now. I'm counting down the days to it.
Speaking of Tiger Woods (Ali, you just reminded me)... Does anyone else think it's ironic that in his interview with The Hockey News, Sidney says that other than family members and hockey people he admires Tiger Woods most. Kind of funny considering what Tiger said about hockey during the Stanley Cup finals... Just something I noticed and had to share!
Here's a link to the Hockey news article on TSCS for reference:

And to what Tiger said:

@ julie
Which just goes to show that Sid has more class in the tip of his little finger than Tiger does from head to toe.
@ stephanie:
Agreed! ;)
@ lisa:
LOL! SNAPdoodle!
I wish I could find a Crosby something around here. The only things I ever come across are 87's. :P My DVD burning program decided to start throwing errors a couple of days ago. Three times in a row is failed and ruined my DVDs...at 87% all three times! :o It's a good thing that I'm not superstitious, I guess. :P It's all fixed now, though. :)
