2012 MLS NY Red Bulls Schedule

Joe — Mon, 20 Feb 2012 16:47:54 +0000

Can’t wait for the season to start. Going to be very busy between the end of the hockey season and the start of MLS.

Just waiting on the season ticket package to come.

NY Rangers vs. Columbus Blue Jackets

Joe — Mon, 20 Feb 2012 15:32:15 +0000

For Valentine’s day I purchased tickets to the Rangers versus Blue Jackets game at MSG. I knew Jess would like that more than dinner being as awesome as she is. We took the train down yesterday and caught the game.

We were hoping for a blow out, considering the Rangers have almost double the points of the Blue Jackets. Thanks to some horrible bullshit official time clock being 8 hours away in Toronto a goal in the second period with 0:00.1 seconds left was taken away from the Rangers. This left the game at 2-1 Rangers. Of course in the third the Blue Jackets tie it up and force overtime. Thankfully we won only 22 seconds into overtime.

Go Rangers!

Moving Out Soon

Jess and I finally found a place we liked. We should be moved in around March 1st. We’re so excited and happy. Yay for us!

Once we settle in I’ll post some pictures on the place. This is going to be really good for us.

NY Islanders vs. Florida Panthers

Joe — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 14:55:07 +0000

Jess and I decided to go to the Islanders vs. Panthers game Sunday just for fun. Didn’t care what the outcome of the game was because we could care less about either team. Just went to watch hockey. The Islanders lost 4-1 which we figured was going to happen. Got pretty decent seats considering both tickets plus processing and shipping cost me $45. It’s so cheap out there, probably the only reason why I go. Two tickets in worse seats at the Garden costs me $150 and I still have to pay $63 for the train tickets. Ouch.

So Sunday we get to go see the Rangers again at the Garden and go back to being rowdy fans. Fun times always.

Look What Jess Got!

I lost my auction to win Jess a signed game puck from the Winter Classic but I did win this autographed photo of her man Ryan Callahan! Gave it to her just because she’s the best. I must say I think I did a pretty good job framing it even though I broke the first frame lol.

If you are a hockey fan or love someone who is, check out the NHL auctions site. They have a lot of awesome stuff for really cheap. http://auction.nhl.com/

Only a few more hours until we watch the team from NEW JERSEY go home with a loss!

Rise Against With A Day To Remember

Joe — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 15:38:58 +0000

Jess and I saw Rise Against Monday night at the Mid Hudson Civic Center. We had a great time there and found some friends too.

Thanks for the beer and tickets babe!

Yeah, Yeah I know the pictures suck, what do you expect after all the beer?

NY Rangers vs Winnipeg Jets

Joe — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 20:22:10 +0000

Tuesday Jess and I headed down to the city for the Rangers versus Jets game at MSG. Just a little something we did for her birthday Monday.

I broke in my new Jagr Rangers jersey that I promised I would wear as long as they weren’t playing Pittsburgh. As we figured the Rangers beat Winnipeg 3-0. Shockingly Winnipeg isn’t that bad this season for the fact that they threw themselves together and pretty much got rid of anything to do with the Thrashers at the start of the season.

Army vs. Air Force Hockey Game

Joe — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 16:41:49 +0000

Last night Jess and I went over to West Point to see the Army vs. Air Force hockey game. This game was more exciting than the last one we went to. Score was 3-3. We got to see another tie!

I checked the rankings and Army is now 1-11-5 so I guess we are lucky that we saw 2 out of a whopping 7 points they have.

I urge everyone to at least click the link below and fill it out. Hopefully it will help. Censorship is stupid in general, on all levels. I’m not even going to get into a conversation about how useless the FCC is because it will end up worse than my jury duty rants.

Just fill it out. I don’t care if you don’t understand just do it.

WTF UPS

Joe — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 17:54:19 +0000

Tell me how this makes any fucking sense. My package was OUT FOR DELIVERY on Friday the 13th from the Poughkeepsie UPS facility. This place is 1.5 miles from my house, if that. Never received the package Friday so I check the site. Why is my package DEPARTING Illinois on Monday the 16th with no arrival date in between? How is that even cost effective?

I mean come on UPS, that doesn’t even make sense. Did the driver get pissed off and say “fuck this job” and drive out to Illinois then felt bad and dropped the truck off out there?
