Today I engraved the back of a watch for a mo'sickle cop's retirement. I engraved an image of a wheel with wings on it, and his badge #. For about 1/5 of a second I thought "Buck would like this" then I had to get right back to struggling with my frantic workload.
That may be part of it, OG. The Wings did just finish a seven game series this past Sunday, flew into Detroit from Anaheim on Monday, then played again last night. They weren't exactly fresh.
Not quite o/t... Back in the day, when stereo LPs were first arriving on scene, my brother had a recording where I first heard about Redwing. I hadn't been introduced to hockey yet.
Won't pretend to be disappointed in that outcome. Jimmy Howard's having a pretty good run this year. He should bring the rest of the team with him to one of these games.

ReplyDeleteI'd always associated the winged wheel with motor cops until I became a Wings fan; that symbolism goes way back. But you're right: I like the ideer!
DeleteI am SO hoping for a B's - Wings final.
ReplyDeleteYou and me BOTH.
DeleteIt was surprising that so many of those goals came in the third period. Just wore them down?

Heh. I wonder if Mrs. Bobbitt was familiar with the tune?

ReplyDeleteI kinda agree with you.
DeleteMy ears are ringing, is someone talking about me? :)
ReplyDeleteNot here. Mebbe somewhere else?
