leeluvfashion Bye Bye French Canadian Guy Sep 26, 2009 8:41 AM I recently rediscovered this gem of a hockey song and felt it deserved a post. Originally broadcast when Mario first retired on 102.5 WDVE. With the current preseason/upcoming regular season, I cannot help but think how while the Pens were gone for awhile, now they could not be anymore alive and thriving. I cannot wait to see what comes of the 09-10 season.   Lyrics :   Long, long time ago I can still remember For a dollar you could sit real high I knew if we got our chance We could make Lord Stanley dance If maybe we could draft a big French guy 16 years we sat and shivered One draft pick it was delivered Good news on the doorstep, the Stanley Cup just one step I can't remember if I cried when I read about the big French guy Something touched me deep inside The day Lemieux retired   {*CHORUS*}   Bye Bye French-Canadian guy Drive your beamer to the Igloo past the parking lot guy And vendor boys will sell you their I.C. Light But this will be the day the Pens die This will be the day the Pens die   Do you hate a scoreless tie? And do you have faith in Stan and Guy when they're on the radio And do you believe in the breakout pass Do his hat tricks knock you on your ass And can you teach me how to skate real fast Well we know his back is pretty sore And he's not a young guy anymore When he kicks off the skates he leaves us second rate We were knockin on the basement floor When we drafted him in '84 How in the world can we endure The day Lemieux retired   {*CHORUS*}   Met Grant Fuhr of the St. Louis Blues I asked him for some happy news He said Mario has gone away I know if I had my chance and I sounded like I came from France Maybe they just might let me play But coach saw me and he said: No, Never My boss said: Your pay I'll sever I sit and watch the playoffs Knowing Flyers are all jag-offs 3 men I admire most: Stan and Guy and Myron Cope Skipped right by with my remote The day Lemieux retired   {*CHORUS*}  
Jinx Probert in Rehab Sep 15, 2009 8:58 AM   I thought it might be of interest to some on this group, that Bob Probert was back in rehab in Brentwood Recovery Home in Windsor, Ontario. He ordered a personal pizza to his room, something that is against the rules at Brentwood. The Executive Director delivered the pizza to Probert's room himself. He also delivered the message for Bob to pack his things and get out! So much for that stint in rehab.
Jinx Stanley Cup Party! Jun 18, 2009 6:14 AM No wonder Sid the Kid still lives with Mario. :) These photos have apparently been leaked to a radio station in London, Ontario. Fun Stuff! The wine cellar Mario's Favourite Trophies Centerpiece! Party! You know what you need for a pool.....? The ultimate silver floaty thing! The kids are lovin' it!
Le Etiana The Ultimate game in hockey - game 7! Jun 12, 2009 6:34 PM Who will lift the cup? I can't wait to find out!
Le Etiana Game 6 is finally here! Jun 9, 2009 4:53 PM I'm hoping that the sea of white and the sound of 17+ thousand fans will give the Pens the lift they need to win this game! I have to be honest, if Detroit is going to go for it, I would rather him them win it in game 7 - it's so much more fun to hoist the cup with your hometown crowd in attendance!!! So tonight what I hope for most, is a great night of hockey with both teams playing their heart out, come what may. 8 minutes before showtime and I already have a tummy full of butterflies!
