1. Really, dear...
Shhhh.

You don't want people to hear you sing.

3. Keep in mind
in the 1992-1993 season the Penguins won the Presidents Trophy, winning 17 games in a row along the way...yet lost in the second round of the playoffs to the Islanders. So, it's not as if the Pens haven't been over the same ground the Sharks just traveled.

Also keep in mind, the last time the Penguins won a Stanley Cup was at the end of the 1991-'92 season...the same year the Sharks came into being. So, technically, Pittsburgh has been without an NHL title the same length of time as San Jose.

7. Lots of teams have been without the Cup longer than San Jose
I say they finally got their well-deserved karma for beating the Wings in 1994 (at the time, the Wings had been almost 40 years without a cup). I'm glad to see them gone, though the Ducks will be a challenge for the Wings in round 2.

10. You're talking a lot of smack for a person whose football
team could very possibly go 0-16 again this year.

You can't possibly think your prize from Georgia is going to improve your cursed organization.

33. We'll see! The Seahawks only won 3 games themselves last year
But they got rid of Holmgren, so they'll do better this year.

37. I'll actually be rooting for the Lions, since they're playing
a team in my division.

I'm sure I'm setting myself up for disappointment, which is nothing new.

14. Are you kidding me? Do you not see MrPerson has started
no less than three threads torturing all of the Sharks fan in the forum?

He deserves every bit of abuse I plan on handing him when the Penguins lose.

16. You're in no position at all to laugh at Pittsburgh
They built that team the hard way and have earned the post season success.

While every sports writer is calling for Thornton's and Marleau's head on a plate, Pittsburgh is moving on.

You do realize that your team is a wreck from goal on out. The only defensemen of note on that team is Dan Boyle. You can't get a decent return for anyone on that roster. There is nothing there to replace those guys with from within your system.

You very quickly just moved into the space that Toronto occupies.

17. I'm not laughing at Pittsburgh. I'm saying I want them to get
eliminated so I get sweet revenge for MrPerson torturing me about the Sharks.

And the Sharks will be better next year. They learned a lesson this season.

18. Mr. Person Deserves Some Torture.
But he'd respond more favorably to a dick tease than waterboarding.

21. A lot of guys on that roster are a little to old to be learning any lessons at this stage
of the game.

That's what I think you miss. What you see is what you get with that team. There is not much further they are gonna go in terms of potential.

We had that problem a few years ago with guys like Blake, Yashin, Parrish, Hamerlick, Aucoin etc. Even though you've won the presidents trophy this season your team has hit the wall. Even worse, the system has completely been ravaged.

The only thing that team gets better is if they tear it apart and start anew. They need to begin with the goal out. That D corp is a mess.

There's always Toronto and Atlanta. Toronto is dumb enough to trade you Thronton for Luke Schenn. Their fan base is dumb enough to eat that up as well.

22. All I'm saying is I want them to lose. I don't care how they
compare to San Jose.

I want them to lose so MrPerson knows what it's like have his heart broken this year.

Even though he has more important things on his plate like a failing law practice.
