NHL Playoffs

Get started tonight! So many outstanding games.

Pissed off though since as usual the west and east get catered to while the central time areas have later games. Oh well, that's never going to change. I'm just happy I get to watch both Pittsburgh and Minnesota tonight back to back.

First two games happening, Pitt/Columbus about to get started. Two more after that!

The only good news with Pittsburgh and Columbus is if Columbus wins obviously I'll be okay since it's a city in my hometown state. Still, Pittsburgh (and Minnesota) are my teams so I want Pitt.

Wild will lose this because of a no call on a trip. Wow. Oh well, I predicted the Blues upsetting them.

Real Madrid's Ronaldo says fans never doubted him before record night - ESPN FC

I can't stand his arrogance, lol. There's confidence and then there's arrogance. He's no doubt a tremendous player. But that arrogance isn't doing it for me.

secretk

I agree with you. He is not a bad player for sure, but his arrogance stops me from being his fan and proclaiming him as more than a good player. It's just too much. There is confidence and there is arrogance. He is full of the latter and it is really annoying.

Has he always been like this?

secretk

As far as I know yes. At least from the time I have heard about him - which was about the time he started playing in Man United.

I'm sure some of his arrogance might have contributed to the player he is today... then again, confidence alone could have done the trick as well. But who knows, maybe for him, the arrogance helped him become arguably the best player in the world. I just can't stand the personal arrogance. It's ridiculous. He really does feel like he walks on water. I guess his fans don't mind though.

NHL Playoffs: Toronto/Washington

Toronto is surprisingly up 2-1 right now early in 2nd! Hope it sticks.

Love watching this American who can be the American version of Crosby play for Toronto.

Back to arrogance and athletes...

There's Sidney Crosby and LeBron James... Crosby is the best hockey player in the world and James is the best basketball player in the world. They are two of the most down to earth guys. They are never in the media for the wrong reasons, they care about people, they give back to their hometowns, they are soft spoken. They are nothing like Ronaldo.

Oh...I definitely think that!

How was the crowd reception for him?
