DUCKS WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

oh yeah baby! This is what I am talking about. When these Mighty Ducks first came on the hockey scene back in 1993, I sort of had a cheer for them and felt that they were the true underdogs of the sport. After all, I have mentioned the guts and balls it takes for these guys to actually join a team where you walk in and say "yeah, I am a Duck" to a hot chick in a bar. Doesnt really inspire a lot of power and all does it? I then got the idea that I had to cheer for the ducks so that, just once, on the mighty Stanley Cup, next to the power names of the mighty NHL as the Senators, Rangers, Bruins, Canadians, Black Hawks, Red Wings, Flyers, Islanders, Oilers, Flames, Penquins, Devils, Avalanche, Stars, Lightening, Hurricane, there could be the proud, yet incredibly dorky and geeky, name of the Anaheim Mighty Ducks. The other night, in an amazing 6-2 game win over the Senators, winning the series at 4 games to 1, the Anaheim Mighty Ducks quacked their into the right to have their names carved on that holiest of holy cups in Canada. The cup that is soooo sacred to us Canucks that there was more muttering and uncomfortability sending the cup (http://www.thestar.com/article/209629) to Kandahar then possibly sending our own Prime Minister Stephen Harper to the field to cheer on the troops. Chances are, the troops were more excited to see that hunk of silver than to see the Prime Minister. But yes, now, after 13 years of fighting and struggle, the Anaheim Mighty (they shall always be 'Mighty' in my mind even though they may have dropped the name officially) Ducks will have their name forever inscribed on the trophy and 2006/2007 shall ever be known as "The Year Of The Ducks!"

Now that the Ducks have their name on the trophy, what other possible team now is in the NHL that has a geekier and dorkier name than The Mighty Ducks? I mean, dont suppose Moose Jaw wants to start up a team and call themselves The Moose Jaw Powerpuffgirls?
