I am not going to pick the Rangers just because I'm on a Rangers message board, and I'm a Rangers fan. I didn't think they'd beat the Canes, I was wrong and happy about it, I wasn't alone. I don't think they'll beat TB, but I do think it will be a good series, one we can win and one we certainly belong in. I also think the arrow is pointing way up for the near future the next few seasons, which is exciting. Hopefully I'm wrong again and they beat TB, it can happen. And Let's Go Rangers is right!!!
Who cares what a negative Nellie like you picks if it's not the Rangers? It can happen? - it has happened 4 times in a row this year and counting against the Bolts but for Rangers fans this should be a time for elation so it kinda sucks to see them hand the Bolts a beatdown (again this year!) and have to see a turd floating in the victory punch bowl left by a "fan". Dude I respect that you don't think the Rangers are going to win but there's no need to beat a drum about it, even if it somehow happens nobody on this baker's dozen board of posters will care or shower you with accolades. It's not too late to jump on the bandwagon, maybe Al will let you blow the horn! Let's Go Rangers!
So a negative Nellie is someone who doesn't automatically pick the Rangers? Okay, that sounds great. We should all be robots and say if I am a fan of a team that means I must pick them to win every game and series. Otherwise I am not on the bandwagon. No room for being real and not just a blind homer. Seems reasonable. I think I am very grounded in general. Thought they'd beat the Pens, didn't think they'd beat the Canes. Not crazy. Don't think they'll beat TB, but do think it will be a long close series. Wow, crazy stuff and negative, clearly not on the bandwagon. Good deal.
Sadly Al said Tampa in 6 because that's how I felt before game 1...I honestly think the experience ans the firepower Tampa has will overtake our boys. Doesn't mean I'm not going to be screaming and yelling and cheering from the comforts of my couch.
