...and all the best to the Flyers too!

In some old hockey thread I took note of the potential of this young Chicago Blackhawks team. Tonight the finals start---and it is just cool as all hell to have them there.

Even the Chicago Cubs have FINALLY taken note of their huge season. The Cubs have decided to allow the Blackhawks finals series to be broadcast on WGN-radio---even though the Cubs seem to have a contractual agreement to have their baseball games take precedence.

I for one appreciate their decision!
