Are we there yet? Can I post yet? Is this thing on?

24 hour waiting periods are such a pain in the ass...but then again, at least it's not 48 hours, right? Anyway, mostly harmless troll like creature here, otherwise identified as a Red Wings fan, stopping in for the first round. I tend to jump around the SBN blogs during the playoffs, and sometimes, I even come back on occasion during the season. Maybe I won't do so quite as much this postseason, since Winging it in Motown has a critical mass of commenters going, and is going to be a consistently lively place to be during the playoffs.

Then again, I've interacted with a few different opponents blogs during the playoffs the last couple of years, so I figure, why not keep it going? So here I am, to grace, or infest  (as the case might be) you guys with my presence. Imagine some WWE style entrance here, complete with overbearing theme music, and arrogance dripping from every pore. Except, and I'll hope you'll agree, without the arrogance. The music, I'll go with some Cradle of Filth, and just try to scare the hell out of you. Or at least scar your ears.

So ya think the friendly Wings fan is a mythical creature, right? For my bona fides, I offer that I've been hanging out on Pensburgh for the better part of two years, through the back to back cup tussles. And last year I jumped in on Second City Hockey during the WCF, and I haven't been banned yet. Heck, I even got a comment rec'd once over there. They were so shocked at what they did, they forgot to call the Wings Scum for a couple of minutes. It was very confusing.

Proof is somewhere within http://www.secondcityhockey.com/2010/3/25/1390859/you-love-this-shirt-it-says#    (All this time on SBN blogs, and I still haven't figured out how to link to specific comments.) If you do click, and wait for the 600+ comments to load, you might notice that I'm not above the occasional zinger. But where would the fun be in being entirely polite? What do you take me for, a Canadian?

Anyway, I don't figure to be as popular as your new Duck buddy, since I'm not going to be cheering on the Yotes....but you let me hang around, and I promise not to be (too) offensive. Deal?
