Gir

Gir isn't stupid, he's ADVAAAANNNNCED! Yes, something is broken and it's not my fault, scary, isn't it? And no, I don't know what the G stands for. MUSSST OBEEEY THE TACO MAAAAAAN! I need taco's, I need them bad or I will asplode... that happens to me sometimes. I bleed Green and Gold, with a little navy blue mixed in there.

Arrrrrgh, two more weekends of this?  Really? I know it's like farting in the wind, but I am so tired of this 'madness'.  It's overhyped, poorly officiated, and one or another group of fans is going to be shouting in outrage over something or other.  Goodness gracious people, it's a SPORTING EVENT.  Treat it as such, all this ravenous feeding frenzy is just stupid, save it for stuff that really matters and take the time to enjoy the competition instead. Now that that's out of the way, the Ice Hockey tourney is all set up to roll, and…
