I'm having a more enjoyable time switching back and forth between the grass growing nationals, and the paint drying quarterfinals.

By the way, Colby Armstrong grew up here in my home town, and still lives here in the off-season. 

Last year, he hosted a charity golf tournament at my home course.  One day I decided to hit the range at my course, and I see the course is packed.  I didn't know it at the time, but it was Armstrong hosting a charity fund-raising tournament.  There were several NHLers there as well.

and people still claim  pga pros could just instantly go shoot a 59 on your local muni


this game is a blast because the players have to adjust to mediocre conditions, deviate from their routine play, improvise, etc.

I read that the Flyers are trying to arrange a game with the Pens at Beaver Stadium next year. 107,000 fans, right in the middle of the two cities.

It would be a civil war...in the stands. I hope it happens, today's game was a lot of fun.

There have also been rumors of Islanders-Rangers at Yankee Stadium. But it hasn't really gone anywhere.
