Get the F Away From Me

I’m a little pissed at you, Sharks. You play up and down hockey all year. You combine spectacular effort and dominating performance with listless, boring hockey. For every up story, there’s a down story. For every young kid playing well, there’s a young kid not playing to his potential. You can’t expect this crap to play in the playoffs, can you? When you can’t even win at home against a bad team decimated by injuries?
What am I saying? We need a break from each other. To put it bluntly, get the F away from me. Just go on the road or something. Get some New York hookers, and come back refreshed. Oh, I’ll check in on you from time to time. But I hope you can get your head straight. Take a couple of weeks. Please. And for God’s sake, get it together.
Last night Sharks broadcaster Drew Remenda said, “Hard work beats talent” and that simple mantra sums up the Sharks season long effort. This 3-2 homestand looks acceptable on paper, but in reality they barely beat two non playoff teams in OT (Chicago and Columbus) and lost to two teams riddled by injuries (Colorado and Edmonton).
Get the F away from me too.
Once again, it’s Havi time. And BTW, this isn’t any host of the Teal Spiel. This is the original “Fire RW in favor Mike Haviland” guy. The Teal Spiel guy took that idea and ran with it.
Let’s face facts. RW is done in San Jose. It’s time for new blood, and that new blood is Mike Haviland.
