lol,im so used to being on the bottom but sometimes being atop is sooooooooo good lol

Well, luckily I didn't need any of my little blue pills to get to the top of this pool. But they've certainly kept me up in other aspects of my life!

May I make a statement?

Since when does Rantsalot need permission to make a statement?

Thank you, I appreciate the feedback. I've had mixed responses to the new photo spread, but my hope was to convey a sort of natural look, as I grow more and more comfortable with who I am. It's been a long process, to be sure, but it's nice to know my patience is paying off.

Thanks Rants! And if you go ahead with the actual calendar, I'd be flattered to be a part of it. Being up there with 11 gorgeous women would be very high praise indeed.

I think the shots stat needs to be rethought for next year......being on the westcoast we dont get the opportunity to watch as much hockey as you american torontonians. More emphasize on GOALS and ASSIST.

Its ok though, even if i loose the canucks will still be better then the leafs.

Have good weekend!!!

I agree that SOG is grossly overvalued, and should be changed next year. That said, I'm glad I was in the pool this year, so I could take advantage of the market inefficiency I was able to discover.

I hate to say it though, I haven't watched a single game all year. I don't watch regular-season hockey at all; it doesn't have the intensity of playoff hockey, and my classes don't end until the postseason begins. I just have a knack for analyzing statistics, especially for sports.

It's been my experience that western Canadians are more like Americans than Torontonians are. I'm not trying to stir anything up here, but I get a bit paranoid about being lumped in with people who consider cowboy boots with a suit as a style statement.

Next year it will be the O'C show! You all can go Puck Off as your playing for 2nd place.



O'C

Does this mean I win the membership??

Woot! I can't wait for the playoffs!

[Foxy Basket]

Wire-to-wire, Nikki's Blueblazers finish on top!

I wanted to wait until the season ended before I started to gloat, but I just couldn't wait that long! Sorry kids, you tried your best, but you just can't beat me when statistics are involved!

Admin, thanks for setting this up, and thanks for the three months of banner advertising. I think I'll use mine for June, July and August, and I think I'll take you up on the banner design offer too.

Lisa, looks like you're heading up to the Big Smoke for the playoffs! Would you rather catch a game during the early rounds, or wait for things to get a little more interesting?

Rants, Madchild, and everyone else within reach of Toronto, now we have to arrange a "Tgirlforums Hockey Pool Celebration Night!" Admin has generously offered to cover some of the expenses coming from our beer tab, so let's figure out when we're all available, and sort out the details.

Oh, and O'C? Bring it, baby! Tough talk means nothing unless you back it up, and I made good on my preseason guarantee of victory - let's see what you've got, because otherwise. . . .........

Oh, and I'm not done yet! Playoff pool, anyone?

A celebration night sounds cool. Too bad I'm all the way in Vancouver.

I just wanted to congratulate Nikki! I never came close to catching you! And thank you to Admin for setting this up.

Maybe we can do one for the playoffs? Or hopefully there will be more people submitting teams if a pool is setup for next year!

Go Canucks Go!

Congrats Nikki on your winning the pool and you finishing your term and projects. Um, one thing though. Madchild is in Vancouver, that is NOT within an arms reach,.....LOL

Sure. I'm up for a night or get together. I'm heading up to TO perhaps in April/May. If anyone can set a date and time I'll see what I can swing to arrive.

[Simon604]

hey CONGRATS NIKKI, you owned....
thanks every1, its been fun....

[tslisaparadise]

Well heres' the final stats.
Interesting results, wonder what would have happened if there was another month.
Looks like I surged by Rants at the end.
And Simon was right on top of Lisa!

[Foxy Basket]

Cheers everyone, I hope as many of us can celebrate it as possible. Maybe at Goodhandy's 3rd Anniversary, on May 22? It's plenty of lead time, and we can watch a late-round playoff game, have a few drinks, and go to the club afterwards.

I had a lot of fun in the pool (sorry if I talked too much trash ) and I'm looking forward to watching the playoffs. Now that I'm done school, I can enjoy some real hockey!

If you're up for a playoff pre-drink before the Anniversary, let me know.
