Rock on guys. Great to see some home town boys on WLTV Gary. Hope things are well. Don’t keep em out too late tonight – Adrian’s got a cool Twitter app he’s programming for me for next week – watch for that, should be fun.

Cheers.

QOTD: Hockey’s aiite.
QOTD: It’s gotta be a tall paper cup filled with Suntory Malts at the Kashima Antler’s game. Throw in some intestine stew and we are so ruckin good to go.

Great episode, as always… nice to have some non-industry types in the mix…

QOTD1: Been a TRUE, long-suffering LA Kings fan since their inception in ’67… just ONE Cup, please…?

QOTD2: Ice cold brew… with a few nips of Schnapps from the boda-bag inside the game…

QOTD 1: I LOVE the game and I will be checking out your site.

QOTD 2: Anchor steam beer at a Sharks game.

Great show GV!
QOTD1: I really like going to hockey games, but not watching them on t.v., maybe more primetime games on espn.

QOTD2: flavored lemonades

Thanks for bringing the Thunder as always, and who is the new intern you have there?

Loved this episode! Hockey is my favorite sport so it was great to see some hockey talk for a change. My drink of choice at games is typically a good Canadian beer like Molson.

Great show and keep the hockey angle going.

QOTD 1: I am a hockey fan but being a good old southern boy from Alabama, well lets say I did not grow up on the sport. All it took for me was going to one game. I was hooked! So get to that first game, not on TV, in person.

QOTD 2: Our local arena’s drink selection is CRAP, I think it is what ever the distributor is dumping this week. When choice is available Molson Canadian after all it is hockey and if in Canada I try to find a Brador. Got hooked on that a few years back!

I’ve only seen hard cider, interesting they make it into a dessert wine too.

QOTD1: I work security at the Columbus Blue Jackets’ arena, so I like them, but don’t make a point to watch much hockey otherwise… it’s probably just because I’m such a big football fan.

QOTD2: The drinking fountain, because everything else in an arena is too damn expensive!

QOTD #1: I think ‘that’ section of the newspaper should say ‘Sports’ during football season and ‘Other’ the rest of the year so I don’t think much could be done to get me to watch hockey.

QOTD #2: At a Montana Grizzly football game on a cold day: Baileys & Starbucks in a thermos.

Good show!

QTD1: I grew up playing and watching hockey in Minnesota but lost interest after moving to Arizona. Would love to see more games on ESPN, ESPN2, and other large Network channels. Also, I believe those who don’t watch hockey on a regular basis would appreciate a better way to see the puck on TV (i.e. digital enhancement or better camera angles). The game is definitely much better watched in person.

QTD2: An nice cold import beer, most likely a Heineken.

Hm. Y’know, I have a bit of a sweet tooth, but I think even I’d prefer a hard cider to the ice wine. Interesting that it’s from Quebec and has a monstrance on the front. Maybe that’s what Fr. Roland’s been using for Mass lately. Definitely a sweetish white…

QOTD #1: Meanwhile, not a hockey fan. What would get me into it — fully clothed women over forty and men who are head-over-heels in love with their wives in the beer ads? Meanwhile, here’s some required listening: http://m.podshow.com/media/406/episodes/14722/celtic-14722-07-19-2006.mp3. The cut you want’s right at 18 minutes. No, really. It’s funny.

QOTD #2: Favorite beverage at Monarch’s or King’s games is the soda I snuck in in my purse. Favorite beverage at the Scottish Games is water, followed by a Guinness.

Go Bruins! ( I’m for them ).

Nice to see hockey fans on the thunder show. You had a very cool rapport, a quite nice back and forth between the three.

Ice Apple wine, I’ve never had it, must taste like Norwegian cider if you get cinnamon; you’ve just given me something to look for.

QOTD 1: Keep doing what you’re doing, Hockey is great!

QOTD 2: I’ve only been to a Professional hockey game once in my life (Toronto), the rest I follow through Sports channels, drinks cover the range from beers to wines and spirits, oh, and lots of food and snacks.

Good Show.

Very fun episode. Not heavy on the wine info but enjoyable to watch none the less.

QOTD1: Sorry, but nothing. I don’t dislike hokey any more than anything else, just not a sport fan period.

QOTD2: Water or Diet Cola/Pop/Soda

QOTD1: Hockey isn’t that exciting to watch on TV, but I was into college hockey during my years at BU (national champs 09!).
QOTD2: Usually go with a lemonade, not spending $16 for a decent beer at yankee stadium.

This is off topic, and yes I did watch your episode, and of course it was great like always. But I’m curious, I’ve been tasting Pinot Noir from all over the world. Lately I’ve been trying Pinots from Argentina, and for some reason, I don’t know, most of the ones I’ve been tasting seem a lot heavier on the palate than most pinots(for example the Mariflor 2005 Pinot Noir from Mendoza that I’m tasting right now). Also it displays other characteristics as if it’s blended with something else other than Pinot Noir. My question is, have you heard of some Argentinean Vineyard blending a little Syrah in with their Pinot Noir?

Keep doing what you do Gary, I’ll continue to watch and support,

Jaton

QOTD1: Not an issue, I’m in Detroit, Go Wings get them next year. (And Bettman sucks!)
QOTD2: Usually a Molson; you’ve got to drink a Canadian beer. I love the Labatt Blue too.

Too bad about the PHX move to Hamiton. Hope it still happens we need more teams north of the border.

Kell b. Prettt=y cool helmet head! LOL

Yo Canadian beer dudes. Do you still get Yukon Gold there. I remember it was so tasty back in the late seventies or 80’s. Back then Molson and Moosehead had at least some flavor. They seem rather weak these days in California. That could be my palate changed but can you suggest some more flavorfull beers from north of the big ass border? eddwestat comcastnet

QOTD 1: Well first of all it would be a great move if one could watch hockey- games from Amerika here in Germany. That would be a start.
QOTD 2: As I have never visited a hockeygame I can’t say. But wine would be kind of nice. Not a traditional sportsdrink but why not make it so?

Neat diversion to hockey talk.

QOTD 1: I wish for the days of more finesse (european-style) hockey. Flame me if you like, but we’ll never see another graceful player, a la Gretzky, with the enforcer mentality. Gretzky inspired a generation with skill. On a separate note, in the interests of seeing the puck easier, I wonder if the rink boards could be made of transparent material so fans could still see the action along the boards nearest them.

QOTD 2: Water; drinks are too expensive.

Q1. I really like hockey better on a minute to minute action basis than any of the other big pro sports in the US, problem is, it is the one sport I never played. So I lose the “I know what that feels like” thing I get when I see a blocked shot or a good open field tackle. Other problem was in the last stanley cup game, it really looked like detroit was outplaying pittsburg early and got nothing, then a couple bang bang plays and the game is over. The low scoring aspect of the games is a problem. i nother sports 98-88, 35-17 and even 7-2 and I know who dominated, but 2-1 with a couple shots off the crossbar, hrmm.

Q2. A Saison.

Hubba hubba GV! Two days of hottie McHotterson guests – I am a happy lady! Clearly I need to be heading north more often to hang out with these Canadians. 🙂 Fun show; you three had a good rapport. I like what you did there, constantly getting affirmed for your hockey references. Well done.

QOTD 1: I’ve never been much of a hockey watcher. The Notre Dame team was always good while I was in school, so I watched them but other than that I don’t really watch. Not for a lack of effort on the hockey world to reel in another fan mind you, I just don’t get into it.

QOTD 2: I’m going to generalize the question to favorite beverage at a game and I’m gonna go with my non-thinking beer of choice – a good ol’ Miller Lite.

Keep it real.

QotD1: You’re gonna hate me, but I don’t like the fighting. I like Olympic hockey better than NHL hockey because the game is quicker paced and there’s less thug mentality.

QotD2: Beer!

Hey Saint John boys, nice show! It was fun to watch.

QOTD #1: This may be sacrilegious coming from a Canadian hockey fan, but I find 4 on 4 hockey MUCH more exciting to watch. More open ice, more scoring (that’s what the Americans want right?). I can see how the scrums along the boards, and “the trap” can bore new viewers.

I also agree with other comments that the season is too long and won’t be able to compete with the NBA playoffs. I remember when I lived in Seattle, we didn’t have cable in our house so when the playoffs were on, I’d have to go to a sports bar to catch it. Well, guess what? EVERYONE was watching basketball.

QOTD #2: Fav drink is Root Beer. If I’m in the mood, then it has to be Scotch on the rocks.

Cheers,
-Justin

Fun episode.

QOTD1: I’ve actually had this conversation with my good friend that is a huge hockey fan. This may sound silly, but here it goes: Either get rid of the goalie or make the goal net bigger. My friend told me that getting rid of the goalie would be ridiculous because they are sometimes the best part of the game, so I guess just make the net bigger to increase the scoring.

QOTD2: Beer. Usually Miller Lite.
