SJGreene Posted May 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 Yes but the hype was brought more by Gretzky not the NHL. When he was 11 Gretzky started watching him, the around 14 he said he think crosby would be the one to break alot of his records. That may be true, but the NHL has not tried to slow that hype train. Sid is in/on a ton of the League's promo ads. Unfortunately, I think he's experiencing some backlash due to over exposure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, I think he's experiencing some backlash due to over exposure. I would agree. I think they are trying to make him the face of the league, Manning and Brady style. But the way I read the article is that Sid doesn't deserve to have his face on any promo. and I think that kind of ridiculous. But I do agree that he is in a lot of ads, and I think mcfarland toys has man like 4 different figures off him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJGreene Posted May 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 What a Second Period by the Wings... totally Momentum swinger.... Chi-Town is awe struck! What was that 3 goals in 4 and a half minutes???? Pretty much. That was great! It's just too bad the game didn't end on a high note, at least for Wings fans. Oh well, you can't win them all. But it will be hard for the Hawks to beat the Wings 3 out of 4 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scalare102079 Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 anybody else think we'll have a rematch of last year's Cup finals?? I think Bettman is going "oh crap" He was drooling over an all bird finals. But the wings are gonna beat the pens in 6 again. Sorry, Sidney, you are gonna have to run that "finals lost - never again" commercial for another year. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hate that pats always have (plus I have colts season tix), but I am from Detroit, dad played for the Lions for 4 years so I am a lions fan at heart but do enjoy watching the colts a lot. And I would not watch an NBA basketball game if you paid me to, I grew up with season tix the the Bad Boys but that was when the NBA was fun. Baseball? Is there still a league? ... I am a tigers fan and enjoy the bosox as well. I am a HUGE Man U fan, that is the team I follow religiously since 1985ish. When it comes to college sports University of Arizona is the only team I care about, and has been that way since about the same time 85, my old man played football there so it has always been a part of my life.
