Soda pop Friday. Can you answer these questions about hockey and fashion?

1) I think you found something, tinted visor- tinted glasses. That or trying to hide the bloodshot eyes.

2) No deal, 42 dollars would be 41.99 too much

3) No dog, I have to prove myself with plants first.

4) People like things that are different, I see a lot of fans wearing the retro jerseys here ( there are 4 or 5 of them) Although most are wearing the one that looks like the current one except darker red and CA instead of the CH

5) She might like hockey and not make me watch American idols dance with the stars in hell's kitchen

6)

a)It's winter up here

B) if I am in Tampa a Drunken homes in heels may step on my feet.

1) Ovechkin put on sunglasses and a stupid hat during the All Star game. Was this because he can’t shoot a puck when he is not wearing overly tinted glass in front of his eyes? Yuck….yuck.

A) Uhh, actually he was going incognito trying to evade the Crosby Mafia for being too.....what's the word.....too.....ROUGH with him.

2) I am sure you guys remember Cooperalls came in a long plants version and a long shorts (or since we are talking 80’s….jams) version? I saw a pair of Toronto Maple Leafs Darryl Sittler Game Worn (preseason) Cooperalls on E-bay selling for $4,200. Ummmm, “Total rip-off” OR “What a Deal”?

A) Ripoff. Call me a cranky old curmudgeon, but you will NEVER see me spend a penny for game-worn anything. Ahem, unless Jessica Simpson joins a mud-wrestling league.....

3) If they started making jerseys for dogs, would you buy one for your pooch? If you do not have a dog…..why not….do you not like dogs? Don’t want the responsibility?

A) I like dogs (let's go Eagles) but I cannot - for the life of me - figure out why people dress their pets in anything other than what they are naturally adorned with. I actually think it is kind of sick that people do that.

4) If they sold something called a “4th jersey” for autograph signings, public appearances, and whatnot……and they sold for half the price of regular jerseys……would more people buy them……OR do people like to stick to the standard home or away jersey, no matter the cost?

A) Everybody loves a bargain.

5) Most NHL teams have dangle earrings that girls can purchase. Really think about it: If you see a chick wearing NHL earrings is that tacky? Why or why not?

A) The Puckbunny Meter buries the needle at ten. Even bends the dang thing.

6) Name 2 reasons why you should NEVER wear flip-flops to a hockey game?

A) Too cold outside (above the 35th parallel) and Joe has a toe fetish.

1) Maybe he wears the tint to protect his eyes from the red light of all the goal lights he lights .

2) For a fan of Sittler that would be a deal. But for the rest of us , not so much. Unless you are going to start a bad fashion idea museum

3) My doggies would not wear jerseys . They tend to pull each others collars off. I really wouldn't want to spend that money and then find shreds of jersey everywhere .

4)I still think most fans would want a "real" jersey as opposed to just one for signatures. I am sure the material would be very much different and cheap. Some may try to wear it and then it would rip and fall apart . Not cool .

5) I used to have a pair of the Panther ones. I would wear them to every game. But I lost one. They have some great sterling silver ones, that I would love to buy. Not tacky at all.

6)Hard to run around the arena in flip flops. Too many people step on my toes as it is. With sneakers I have at least a little protection.

Gotta stay away from that Jolt Cola,lol. Makes you do crazy things, like wearing a fedora.

1)Probably hungover from drinking all that Stoli's the night before.

2) Still cheaper than a Leafs season ticket, isn't it?

3) I love dogs and grew up with them, but I have a mild allergy to dogs and cats, which I didn't discover until after I left home.

4) I think people would have had enough of the jersey marketing machine by then. Who would want a Thrashers 4th jersey, when they can't give away their 3rd jerseys?

5)At a hockey game: not tacky

At the office: Tacky

In the bedroom: depends where they are dangling from ;)

6) Drunken fans who are sitting in the middle of your row stepping on your toes as they constantly get up to get more beers.

Frostbite while going from your car to the arena, at least in the Canadian cities.

1) Lame...total miss by Hales!

2) Rip off.

3) I guess if I was going to a rival city or something, yeah. I don't have a dog, not because I don't like dogs, but because of the responbisibility. I have two cats who think they're dogs though!

4) I still see Leafs fans with the Toronto St. Pats jerseys here and there so yes, I think people will buy them, but it depends on the fanbase. Somehow, I don't think the Coyotes would do well in that department....

5) Yes, that is very tacky.

6) Appear to be retarded, and it's freaking cold (at least north of the 47th parallel).

1. No, it's because he thinks he's a total stud. Agreed, yuck yuck

2. 4,200 for a pair of pants? Lol...

3. Haha, I always put blankets on her and she'll walk around in them all night, I doubt she'd even notice a jersey. Sure, I'll get her a Toscala jersey :)

4. I'm kind of confused...

5. I have them for the Steelers. I hope its not tacky!

6. When I get cold I start violently shaking and two I don't want my little feet stepped on.

BTW- just wondering, what team are you a fan of?

1) Air Canada is corrupt and I would rename the arena Maple Leafs Gardens. Sorry raptors. :P 2) Puhlease. Nhler’s are gross :P. I’m still thinking off glenn sather during the rags pens game puffing away at his cigar while his team lost. Good on Ron and the CBC crew for picking on him. 3) Sneakers yes. 4) Ignore it. I love kids…’cause I’m one. 5) Matin Brodeur, and we would call it Martain’s Bar!...or I could just steal gretzky’s and healey’s and name my bar after them. Uhm if it was someone in this section my bar would be called joe b’s or NIPS!!! Both those names have boob allusions. 6) Those are all bad choices. Haha. I would get him to try and explain what his deal was and then we’ll approach the team together, and if he doesn’t want to talk or can’t I’ll step in and let the guys know what’s up and lay down the law. No human being deserves to be treated that way by another decent person. People should have morals…even if it is sports. 7)The world could be ending and nothing will pry me away from the moment of the leafs playing in the Stanley cup finals. I really mean that. It’s an addiction I can’t cure :(

1. I think the tinted glass is his security blanket. Maybe he is insecure about his eyes or something.

2. I have nooo idea what those are.

3. The last thing we tried to put on my dog ended up covered in salsa. Note: never leave salsa on the floor unattended with dogs.

4. God I hate the penguins 3rd jerseys enough, I cant even imagine the 4th jerseys...

5. Guilty for having a pair a few years ago. I retired them and changed to the necklace.

6. 2 words : Skate Blades. and the fact that arena bathrooms are not exactly uhmm eat off the floor clean.

1) yeah.......that's it!

2) What A Deal? A pair of Bobby Clarke worn Cooperalls sold privately about 5 years ago for $9000. Clarkie is convinced he could have gotten $10K

3) NO dog. No time for dogs. Would you want me bringing the pooch to the cabin? I'm sure your husband to be would love watching the pooch while we drink Widmer.

4) Jerseys are hugely popular. I cannot figure out why.

5) Too much pop I see. Or else you are trying to cover up the fact that you are the newest owner of a pair of bolt earrings

6) Beer and athlete's foot don't mix. I can't think of reason to wear flip-flops...now when I need to, I can only think of one reason not to....and it involves beer!

1. LOL... aha.. maybee!!

2. For a big Sittler fan, which I am, "What a Deal!".......LOL

3. I don't have a dog... and yes, I just don't like them. In fact I might just hate them. No offense to the dog lovers out there..... but I have my reasons.

4. I think people would stick to the normal home and away jerseys!

5. Umm.... I say tacky! Maybe not so tacky if one is wearing to the game or something but just like randomly when going to a mall or something...Sorry but that's Tacky!

6. One... because it's freezing outside and Two...... because I would probably fall running up the stands! LOL

Nice Questions :)
