Queen Bee and the Blue Hornet Band. The finest of State College and Penn State.

It’s still a great day for hockey. The series looked like it was destined for a 4-0 sweep, and the Pens took it to six. The Pens wouldn’t have stood a chance against the Cane, and I don’t see the Flyers doing much better. Let’s go Sabres.

That was only 10 minutes? Holy shit! #LetsGoPens

I’d forgotten just how stressful overtime playoff hockey with the series on the line can be. Jesus. #LetsGoPens

Anyone else tired of the “GAS UP” geezer at the Flyers games? #LetsGoPens

Konecny sure knows how to embellish. #LetsGoPens

The way the refs handled the Flyers garbage after the icing penalty was just about perfect. They clearly could have called unsportsmanlike conduct - but it would have allowed the Flyers to put fresh players on the ice. Instead, make them play - then call the first pseudo penalty. #LetsGoPens

Hey TNT announcers … any word on Acciari? Or you just going to ignore what looked like a concussion? #LetsGoPens

Again …

When is Penguins puck drop? #LetsGoPens

Mantha finally does something Unfortunately - it’s getting a stupid penalty. #LetsGoPens

Bissonnette calling Flyers style of play “scumbag hockey.” Sounds about right. #LetsGoPens

Has anyone ever noticed that playoff hockey is just … different? #LetsGoPens

Really not a fan of the Penguins yellow sweaters. #LetsGoPens

It’s a great day for hockey.

How many breakaways are the Penguins going to give up?! Thank Stu we’re still in this game. #LetsGoPens Should be losing by 4 instead of 1.

GENO!!!! Let’s. Go. Pens. #LetsGoPens

Penguins literally running over each other. Come on! #LetsGoPens

It’s a great day for hockey. #LetsGoPens

Tkachuk is a loser.

This Carolina Hurricanes jersey (sweater) is their best.

Found in a bathroom at a pizza place.

#Penguins game is 12:30 today. But is puck drop 12:35-ish? Or 1:05-ish? Too often (for network broadcasts especially), the time is when the broadcast starts. Can anyone confirm puck drop time? Google, shockingly, is flat-out wrong.

Van Damme and Rodman!! Snow days were made for films like this! #DoubleTeam

Credit USA team for keeping Gaudreau’s memory alive. #olympics

Most disappointing player: Marchand Most disappointing play: MacKinnon missing wide-open net. Most phenomenal player: Hellebuyck Most unfortunate: 3-on-3 play to decide the winner. #Olympics

This has got to be killing Sid. #olympics

All right. Down to the next four minutes. #olympics

Cannot believe Mackinnon missed. #olympics

“Greatest Canadian of all time, no doubt about it” — announcer referring to Gretzky. Huh? #olympics

If this goes to that 3-on-3 garbage, it’s going to be a travesty. #olympics

SUPER quick whistle favors the USA on that 5-on-3 #olympics

Marchand playing like garbage. #Olympics

“We’ll take you from that UNESCO World Heritage site to Crytpo-dot-com arena” which will host gymnastics in the 2028 #Olympics … Modern America in a nutshell.

Folks loving on the Tkachuks need to realize there’s a reason Auston Matthews is the team captain. #olympics

I can’t believe #Olympics hockey was smart enough to do away with a shootout to decide the gold medal winner … but I cannot believe they’re doing 20-minute periods of 3-on-3? Is that for real?

Maybe a quick whistle at the end of first period in USA vs Germany men’s hockey #Olympics … but it WAS a whistle. And the U.S. player shot at the German goalie with no glove. Should have been some kind of penalty.

Lars Eller giving a serious hit to teammate Brady Tkachuk. You just know he’s been dying to do that for a while. #Olympics

#Olympics hockey announcers keep expecting Mike Sullivan to change up the lines to spark something. It’s pretty clear they didn’t pay attention to Sully’s history with the #Penguins. It’s not gonna happen.

#Olympics hockey - LOVING the ice, walls, uniforms and helmets not being riddled with ads. Especially the distracting ice/wall ads that change and move throughout the game and during the action. Sure wish the #NHL gave a damn what their fans thought about stuff like this.

Peacock replay cuts out the clash between Canada and Sweden in curling. Lame! #olympics

Announcer for Switzerland-Canada notes the players may be teammates in the NHL, but at the #Olympics, they’re “heated rivals.” Other announcer seems uncomfortable for a moment.

Connor McDavid looking like he’s (a) throwing out the checks and (b) starting to get hit back (which he looks annoyed about). Sorry, Connor - you throw em, you’re gonna get em. #Olympics

A lone announcer for men’s hockey (at least for Sweden-Italy men) is rough. Tough on the announcer and on the viewers. #olympics

Short track speed skating announcers are absolutely awful. #olympics

I made fun of this a couple weeks ago — the Xmas Village in Philadelphia having a booth selling unopened (“unclaimed”) Amazon packages. Since I posted that, it has become a viral sensation. Folks waiting in line to buy garbage ($10 for a package of 0 to 8 oz.). See my photo in the comments.

Indeed.

The lack of replays on Fox coverage of college football is remarkable. And the announcers are crappy on their own too.

“Glass half full, here’s some advertising.”
