Or maybe I could just look for another pic?

when you attempt to upload the picture, you can resize the image to many different sizes, from the biggest at 800 px width to 320 as the smallest, that is if you take advantage of the upload feature here on forum motion.

OK, I will try to figure out what this means. Thanks. Much appreciated.

By now, I assume all the rumours about Manny Fernandez are absolutely true. He's an arsehole who's all about himself. If it's not true, I apologize, but he's a top rate goaltender out of a job in late August...

fixed it for you FOI, why isn't that guy our mascot over spartacat? :^^^^:

If he gets moved at the last second, I have to go back on a massive trade in the sim and retrace my steps and start over. At this point, I'll be cross for that alone.

well I don't believe anyone is going to hold their breath until a Heatley deal gets done, maybe this will be a blessing in disguise, Murray and Clouston should sit down with him and say, we don't want you here, you don't want to be here, since that is the case and this is an olympic year, you play your Donkey off for us, we guarantee you will be traded either at the deadline or in the off season for sure. (a nice way of saying you have to increase your value you spoiled little brat Heatley)

I agree with the general tone of your post but I think the sens should refrain from offering any warranties.

you are probably right on that one to be honest with you, that might be too bold, so instead of guaranteed offers, we will see how the situation is come trade deadline or the off season of next year.

Thanks.

I was actually at a game once when he was there. It must have been one of his first games because he won Fan of the Game and was sitting right behind the opposing teams bench.

Here is a true story about me and a friend. I wonder if any of you guys were at the game as well and saw me. ***I am just going to get facts out so I apologize for the poor writing skills I will show right now***

Our magical run in the playoffs 2006/07. First Round of the playoffs, Game 5 at home against the Penguins. We are already up 3-1 in the series and we can clinch and rest up if we win. My Buddy (Shaun) and I have tickets and we decide to dress up. Me in full Gladiator costume and Shaun as a penguin. I have a leash around Shaun's neck and I am dragging him like you would if you hated your dog (is that possible?). Shaun has a sign over his head and the front part reads, "Bound and gagged in 5" and the back part reads "Emery owns me".

Anyways, the second we park, put on our costumes and start walking to the gates, everyone starts taking our picture and saying we are going to win. This is my first ever game in Ottawa, so we are sort of just happy to be there and we really don't formulate what people are saying. More people take our picture, it's a mad house outside the arena, Ian Mendes interviews us, radio guys, Brent Wallace from TSN and everyone keeps saying we are going to win. Finally I ask, what are we going to win? THE FAN OF THE GAME, they respond and the contest is going to start right now, get up there.

We go over to the Radio shows booth and they are running the contest. 8, 2 person teams entered and you had 10 seconds to act crazy and get fan applause. 6 were eliminated right off the bat, leaving Shaun and I and this crazy hot duo of twin sisters. Twins Basil!

We had to do another 10 seconds showdown and we somehow beat these girls, they really had no costumes, but man were they smokin'.

Shaun and I had upper deck seats that were quickly upgraded to sitting behind the Penguins bench right where they enter onto the ice. The radio guy said that our main goal as fan of the game is to piss the Penguins off. Asking me to do that, is what I was born for BTW. I was in my glory!

I made those Penguin players so mad. Talbot faked like he was going to swing his stick at me. I had Scuderi is tears almost. Roberts has never been the same. Malkin had no clue what to think of me. The trainer was furious and wanted me ejected.

A season ticket holder that was sitting across the tunnel, half-way through the game told me that he has had tickets right there for 10 years and he has never seen anyone get the other team so mad. I was told to tone it down a bit by security many times, but they really just said that because the Penguins were complaining to him about me. I never swore once, never shook the glass and those were the only things I could get in trouble for.

That was my first experience at Scotianbank Place, can you tell why I am a fan now?

I am going to post this and then go back and read it and fix some things. Hopw you enjoyed my experience as much as I did.

damn that was an awesome story, I watched that game, but I can't remember CBC showing you guys on camera, but then again, I can't remember if CBC or TSN carried that game. that was amazing though, really good indication of how fans are treated in Ottawa, well at least Sens fans :^^^^:

Aug 31. Book it.

Hahahaha. Great story.

We were on camera, but never the focal point. You could see us all the time in the background. When I get to work, I will post a pic. We had terrible face paint on, but we went crazy to get the audience to scream for 10 seconds during the contest.

We have nothing on Sensquatch, but man did we have a blast. I went to one game every playoff round that year, except for the finals for some reason. I have since went to a total of 16 games and believe it or not Ottawa is 16-0 in those games. :___:

When I get a bit more time (have to run), I will post what I was saying to the PIT players. Talbot was furious. :^^^:

Roberts did give me one of the meanest, craziest hairy eyeballs I have ever received, but I didn't budge. He hated me. :___:

It was CBC. Sens are first class.

Thanks for the :___: guys.

We can remember this game as clear as day. We were actually just talking about it yesterday. Such a great night.

They were playing the B-Sens in SBP and he did something to piss me off, so I was all over him like white on rice. And then he scored and skated up to us and put his finger to his lips in the shhh motion.

Bad idea. He definitely cried himself to sleep that night.

We should almost move these posts to a new thread. I bet most of us have stories to share.

Can you do that SpezD? I would be an entertaining thread. I love my experience and I am sure that everybody does too.

would not worry about Roberts at that point, if he sat up to quick he would have broken a hip, oh that experience must have been amazing. :^^^^:
