Thinking about picking up a chromebook, a few questions. by rustlemjimmiesin chrome

[–]chall85 0 points1 point ago

Make sure that your school's Wifi is set up for Chromebooks. I love my Chromebook and got it for the same reason (use at school mostly) but I was quite annoyed to find out that my university's on-campus WiFi doesn't support it. They couldn't tell me why or when they would fix it and I've tried everything I can think of make it work without success.

Google's been talking about, or at least testing, the Gdrive since at least 2006.

I'm sure you are! I nearly missed the Cards' WS game 6 comeback but flipped back just in time. Of course the Blues a ways from the Finals.

Sharks won't be taking penalties tonight unless they're down and frustrated. Need good 5-5.

This thread has lots of info about the origin of the (hilarious) power play "dance".

You think the Blues team doesn't think that dance is hilarious? I guarantee you they do. Some guys have a sense of humor, this current, young Blues squad especially.

I imagine a bit of both (making fun/support) but mostly just recognition that the kid was doing a uniquely awesome dance to support a crappy - at the time - team and lightening up a despondent crowd. It would not have gained longevity otherwise.

I was going to Blues games when there were still underground.

I kid. The Blues have been good and competitive for ~90% of their history with just a few down seasons after the lockout. Cheap tickets to see live hockey converted this casual fan into a devotee; I might never have realized what an incredible sport hockey is otherwise, or what a great fanbase St. Louis has. I hope you've been able to attend some games this season. Round 2 here we come...

ELI5: Our team by pattyobryanin stlouisblues

[–]chall85 0 points1 point ago*

I've learned a ton by reading through posts and comments at stlouisgametime.com. Multiple entries every day and great info on future prospects too. There are 1200+ comments on tonight's game thread alone.

Also, the only reason I read your post was because I had idea what "ELI5" meant. Am I the only one?

Which is why I love the Blues. Starting goalie out? Oh no, guess we'll have to bring in our other best goalie in the league

Mute the TV and turn on KMOX. Fair play-by-play from guys who actually know hockey.

Laugh if you want, but I was at the game tonight and when the Blues took the ice tonight a tear came to my eyes. by thefootisconstantin stlouisblues

[–]chall85 0 points1 point ago*

Well said! There is transcendence in that massive roar of a crowd erupting in unison. That of feeling of communal joy which comes after a huge Oshie-assisted Backes goal, a Sobotka beat-down, or a closer's last strike in a playoff game at Busch always chokes me up a bit.

Just curious, do they say 'kye-yoe-tees' in Phoenix or 'kye-yotes'? I imagine the difference would significantly affect cheering.

I agree, the refs were a bit more favorable to the Blues tonight. And that first goal, sure, but we did lose our starting goalie; Elliot came in cold and the Sharks didn't take advantage.

I apologize in advance for nitpicking, but it's "Let's go Blues!" Or, indeed, let's go BUOOOUUUOOGHGHs.

Haha. Monday's game should be interesting.

I did watch the whole game. The airborne hit on MacDonald (who just returned from a lengthy concussion injury a few weeks ago) and the elbow to the head from Burns kind of set the tone. There were cheap shots on all sides but those were seriously over the line.

No offense, but your team played trashy and got their asses kicked accordingly. The whole game can be summarized in Crombeen's reaction to this particular cheap shot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dicF2weX79M&t=0m23s
