Love DC for this reason. Walking+Metro is the greatest form of transportation. Zipcars are great for when you need to carry big shit too.
Oh yeah... and the Flyers blow. I hate this team.

DAMNIT I just spent the past 15mins trying to find a picture I took when I was at Camp Nou, but I can't find it. Barcelona > Madrid.
Yep. Unfortunately I didn't get to Barcelona until July when there was nothing going on but tours of the stadium. Didn't want to pay 70 Euros for that.
Went to a Madrid Champion's League game, though, and a World Cup qualifying match (Spain/Turkey), both at Santiago Bernabeu.

That Is so nice, I went to Nou Camp with my soccer team when I was younger, but not for a game
Just a tour for the arena and the museum, Atleast I got to see their CL trophy(just had one back then I think).This is so cool. Lots of people are describing Bernabeu as maybe the best arena for soccer in Europe.
I have been so Bayern Munichs Allianz Arena and St James Park in Newcastle myself, but I would love to see a game in Spain.
I dunno which I want more tonight: a decisive Rangers win or a spectacular Habs loss. The meltdowns I'm already starting to witness from friends/classmates/acquaintances around here is just so much fun that I really want it to continue. I'm a horrible person like that.
Anyway, now that I've expressed interest in both it will be the exact opposite. 4-0 Bruins, 5-1 Habs. WOO!

LOL I have some Basque friends(I´m actually sporting a Real Sociedad shirt I got from them right now
) and I can´t imagine that anyone they know could sympathize with RM. It just seems to be pure hatred, they see them as a symbol for what has kept there families down decades.EDIT: Stasis get out of here with all that Hockey talk, a sport on ice, how fucking ridiculous!
Best part was the adjacent team store making customized "official" Barca-shirts. Got myself a nice "official" Barca jersey with a customized name on it for myself, since at the time I was still playing Soccer recreationally. Fun times were had.
So jealous... Wish I had the funds.
I am going to Hawaii in August for my birthday though! Getting old sucks...

I know! My family is from Galicia (A Coruña) and hate Real Madrid with a passion.
This guy even had to change his name from a Basque name to a Spanish name because of Franco.
Blew my mind.
But yeah, hockey!
Glad to see Fayne is still going to play tonight after missing practice because of a death in the family.
Hope Cam Ward gives up 4 or more tonight.
I have almost nothing to compare it to (as far as Europe is concerned), but it blew my mind. Especially the qualifier. 85,000 Spaniards going nuts.
You guys talking about Basque country and Galicia is getting me nostalgic now. Some of my greatest memories. San Fermin in Pamplona (craziest 24 hours I've ever had) and the Galician coast (one of the most beautiful places I've ever been to and I never saw it coming).
Osorio, you must have family still in A Coruña? That's awesome.

Osorio: Crazy story about the Basque guy, I guess there is one of every kind.
San Fermin Is the Tomatina right? Must have been crazy.
When did you go to Europe, was it a long time ago? Haha I have to say that for some reason I have always thought that you where an older guy. So now I see you as a 40 something guy talking about your youth
EDIT: Oh I just googled and it seems to bee the run of the bulls but I bet that that is even more interesting
It must have been amazing. I havent been to Basque Country yet myself. I met my friends elsewhere and everything I know about it is what they told me

I'd personally just be fine with a point out of this Boston game.

WHOEVER WINS TODAY MARVIE, WE'LL ALWAYS BE BROS. NEVER FORGET THAT.
WANT TO ROCK WANT TO ROCK WANT TO ROCK OH YEAH
Beauch is our best D. And we're winning games. What does that say? Is Gardiner even playing in the NHL? Don't forget you also took Giggy. Who is probably still a better goalie than either Reimer or Scrivens.
Uh oh.
Nooo? We're very much keeping Ryan and Getzlaf. It's Perry that we need to worry about, and after he's played this season I'm not terribly fussed. He's already looked like he's mentally checked out.
This is the best caption to this GIF I've seen yet, I can't believe I spent $120 AUD on this fucking game. Worst disappointment I've faced in some time.
That's way WAY too fucking cruel to ever undertake.

Collectors Edition, I wanted the resin model badly.
Canes are the Devils' weakness.
Canes are everyones weakness.
They just put everyone to sleep with their boring shit they call hockey.
Dastardly, I think we can be friends again

Oh boy, It's Clemmer time.
They have more shots per game than any other team, and their two games against the Flyers this year were very entertaining.
Sorry, left the boards for a sec. Maybe it has to do with the SP you're on. I never went pas SP1. Just loaded it up and it definitely works fine. Gimp 2.8.
28 now, was 24 but that was definitely the young Socreges. And yeah, San Fermin is the week-long festival surrounding the Running of the Bulls. One non-stop party. Tomatina is actually the only major festival I didn't make it to since it happened right before I arrived and right after I left. But I'd like to go some day.Osorio: Crazy story about the Basque guy, I guess there is one of every kind.

And as a Swede you've got the privilege of leaving trips like that for whenever. But don't get too old before you go.

It feels weird that this is already the last meeting against the Rangers.

Versteeg attacking Ovechkin after a clean hit lol. What an idiot. It was a clean hit and he is the fool who turned his back right as Ovi was coming in to hit.
I like this format from the comments. The Conference A, B, C, and D format was terrible.
Atlantic: NJ NYI NYR PHI PIT
Northeast: BOS BUF MTL OTT TOR
Southeast: CAR FLA NAS TB WAS
Central: CBJ CHI DAL DET STL
Northwest (now North): CAL EDM MIN VAN WIN
