    	Wardlevane, da spoilers bandwagon will crash and BURN justed
    like da debils bandwagon. 
    
    schlep this hopes,
    sean

    NEVAH!  The Colorado contingent, unlike a certain person in New
    Joisey, does not jump teams every time the wind changes direction.
    
    Besides, the Oiler's bandwagon is for quiche-eating ankle-biters
    and they serve Perrier instead of beer.

    JoJ,
    
    Alright.  Go Oilers.  The only thing sweeter then Edmonton winnig
    game 7 on a late 3rd period goal would be an Oiler sweep.  The Bruins
    lose, they'll join the Vikes, Broncos, and Duke as bridesmaids!
    
    Hawhawhaw 
    
    JD

    go oilers.. that ranford was something last night.. gotta give them
    bruins credit though...
    
    

    As a long-time Oiler fan myself, I'm glad they invited the Bruins back
    for another thrashing.  Right sporting of them, don't you think?  I
    gotta admit, I'd have liked to seen the Rangers in their instead of the
    Bruins, if only for the better competition the NYers would offer my
    Oilers.
    
    Dan

    I couldnt believe in between cold sips of brew, how well the oilers
    kept  their  composure.. damn sporty of them... 
    
    
    dinz
    

    Not to worry B's fans, with Wardle, Dinsmore, and Schneider on the
    Oiler wagon, the Broons will be a lock.
    
    Just look at their other teams:  Jets, Giants, Lakers ;-)

	C'mon Oilers... Still the best skating team in Hockey..

	I agree with Dan, the Rangers would have given our Oilers a 
	real battle :^)

	Jim M

    
    
    Alright, I'll jump on the bandwagon, but first tell me where the hell
    Edmonton is.
    
    
    
    

    I'll admit that I haven't followed hockey very much, so I'm not
    really up on the Dinz.  But, I do remember that famous GO WHALE,
    so when did he shift to the Oilers?  Or, is he just following that
    other Vane again?
    
    Lee

    
    Hi lee... i go way back with the oilers... always admored a team
    that has mostly  indians in the stands :))
    
    
    dinz
    

    make that admired
    

Not *all* the gOwHALe fans are vaning.

I wouldn't be caught dead rooting for the Oilers, anymore than I'd
be caught dead rooting for the Bruins.

Anyway, how could I watch tonight's game?  I'd miss Cheers....


gOwHAle,
'Saw

    Have to correct you yet *again* 'Saw.  Game 2 is tomorrow night.
    Therefore, you can tune in to Cheers reruns.  And I get to watch
    the thrilling Knots Landing season-ending cliff-hanger :^(.
    
    Mark.

    Thanks, 'Saw.  That was one wall-hanger (tm) of an explanation.
    
    kthans rof shlepping me.
    
    Mark.

    GO OILERS!!!! (Not the Houscum variety).....
    
    

    I'll join as long as the wonderful Broons toons keep coming?
    
    The Bruins before and after?
    Moog? (instead of Vogue)
    Stanley Cup? (Instead of Start Me Up or All Shook Up)
    
    
    Gag!  

    re .13
    'Saw.  I know when you'll be rooting fro the broons!  It's when we pry
    that cold,dead lemming from your hands!  8^)

    	The only ice the Rangers feel comfortable with is the ice in
    their drinks.

    THAT WAS A CHEAP SHOT  /DON, YOURE IN TROUBLE SATURDAY
    

    re -1
    
    Where is John Hendry?  
    
    Bruce, UDAP  (Unofficial Deputy of the Apostrophe Police)

    	Hey JimWa how 'bout renaming this note to "Frustrated Ranger
    Fan Circle Jerk"?  Dins, the only thing I have to worry about Saturday
    is that you and Schneid sleeze all my beers before I show up.
    
    				/Don

I will not be lumped indiscriminantly in with Ranger fans...

So, you'll have to make it the 

	Frustrated (Rangers OR Whalers) Fans Circle Jerk...

Hell, cain't be any worse that workin' here....8^)


Chainsaw

    Whoa, not so hard on Ranger fans. They are the Red Sox of the NHL.
    Close but no cigar. They have gone longer than any of the "Old 6"
    without winning the Cup. They lost a heartbreaker to the Bruins
    in the '72 final.
    
    The Rangers are a good team with a rich tradition. What real hockey
    fans could forget Andy Bathgate, Dean Prentice, Jean Ratelle, Vic
    Hadfield, Rod Gilbert, Brad Park, Eddie Giacoman..... They also
    have the neatest uniforms in the entire league.
    
    But, I've been brought up on black and gold and remain a Bruin fanatic.
    However, Boston baseball fans should think twice before making light
    of the Rangers long drought. Likewise, Ranger backers should look
    with a kind eye on long suffering Red Sox fans.
    
    Rich
    

    C'mon, Rich.  Everyone *knows* the Black Hawks have the ballsiest
    umaforms.
    
    Mark.

Fast Eddie Giacomin...

That brings back memories....

>Fast Eddie Giacomin...
    
    It was Fast Eddie Jordan and Steady Eddie Giacomin.
    
    Dan

    Dan, I bet you had to look that up.
    
    Mark.

    Naw, I was more of a fan back in the days of Gilbert, Giacomin and
    Hatfield then I am now.
    
    BTW, Mark, when the Yankees trounced the Red SOx 16-2 in 1965 when you
    went to the game for your ree-ward for all A's, did it ruin your day? 
    Hope so.
    
    Dan

    Dan, I was too young to fully absorb the loss.  My dad was way pissed,
    though.  I made up for it years later by powering my Stingray with
    Topps portraits of Roy White, Bobby Murcer et al.
    
    The Sox never pissed me off until 1972.
    
    Mark.

    Da Broons will prevail

Dan, I thought it was Fast Eddie FELSON and Steady Eddie Giacomin...

    I was out yesterday so the 'Police weren't on the job.
    
    I agree with Mark - best uniforms in the NHL definitely belong to
    the BlackHawks - no one else is close.  Not only that, if I was
    dying and had a choice of one sports event I'd want to see live
    before I go, it would definitely be a BlackHawks game in Chicago
    Stadium - that place looks great!
    
    John

    Speaking of the Blackhawks, remember when Stan Makita used to have that
    double curved hockey stick?  He once got ejected from a game at the
    Garden for a double misconduct.  My friend had told me his uncle knew
    Stan, so we raced down to the hallway and there he came down the
    stairs.  My friend says to him, "hey Stan, you remember my uncle
    Billy?"  Makita looked at him like he had sixteen heads and stormed
    off.  Were we a couple of embarrassed 12 year olds about then.  Didn't
    stop us from grossing him out after giving us the brushoff though!
    
    					Steve

I met Stan Mikita about 4 years ago.  My sister and my wife went to
college with his daughter.  He's into golf big time now.  He isn't 
that big (under 6 ft.) but his hands are huge.  All muscle.  He seemed
like a pretty good guy.

My one brush with greatness,
Mike

    For all you Colorado Broons fans....IT'S TOO LATE, NO MORE ROOM ON THE
    SOON TO BE WORLD CHAMPIONS BANDWAGON!!!
    
    I'm glad I'm an Edmonton fan!
    
    JoJ

    Ahem, where are the DEBILS?  You know, that team you *were* so
    in love wif.
    
    I wouldn't expect any more room on the 'slicks bandwagon cuz
    that vane you wears on your haid would knock everybody off
    that is sitting within ten seats of youze!  ;^)
    
    Go Broons!
    
    ClayBroon

    Hey Claywad, what do the DEVILS have to do with this....nuthin. This is
    the Edmonton Oiler Bandwagon Topic. Get outta here with your wimpy
    whining jealousy and crawl back the land of bad spelling and no
    punctuation with DA UDDER BROON FANS.
    
    JoJ

    GO BACK TO JERSEY AND GIVE US AN UPDATE ON THE GIRLY-MON TONY EASON!

    Eason will be backup to Kenny O'Brien. The Jets will win the East.
    Blair Thomas will be RotY....any other facks(tm) you'd like to know?
    
    JoJ

    
    Jests sip. That's a fack (tm).
    
    
    
    Steve

    I was merely pointing out the direction of the team your vane
    was pointing at earlier in the season prior to their departure
    from the playoffs!  We wouldn't want anybody to get the idea
    that you're an avid Oilers fan or anythang.....
    
    And for the record, you invited a reply from the Colorado
    Contingent bud!  So quitcherwhinin' about me being in this
    here note.
    
    ClayBroon

    	Go Broons!

Say, JoO(ilers)....

Didja pick up that Scorps CD yet?

'Saw

    re: Saw
    
    Nope...no Scorps...too busy putting together my next Jets newsletter.
    BTW - Did you guys all know that Chuck Santos is a BIIIIIGGGG Jets fan.
    It's true, he told me last night. Just ask Dan....
    
    JoJ
    
    PS - Chuck, you are definitely on the Newsletter
    distribution...CONGRATS!

    Chuck, please accept my condolences.
    
    Lee, another sad member of the Jests newsletter distribution.

    Somehow I can't see JoJ bangin' his haid to the Scorpions.  Barry
    Manilow yes, Scorps no!
    
    Mike

    Yo Chainsaw you forgot some.
    
    Holiday - What the Jests start early.
    
    You give me all I need - Waddle's ballad, Guess he don't need much.
    
    Rythem of Love - Shower room action for the Jests postgame festivities
    
    Blackout - Dedicated to Jester QB's after a big sack.
    
    Hey You - Jester coaches getting a sub ready for action.
    
    Lovedrive - Dedicated to Mark Gastineau on why he'll never be back.

    Hey Seesaw, the Scorpions are a waste of vinyl within good album
    covers.
    
    Dan

    No Scorpions, No Manilow....Give me UB or give me...well, the B52's!!!
    
    JoJ

I happen to like the Scorps.  Course there ain't much out their
I don't like....  

And JoJ did tell me he had an egregious omission is his collection
by not possessing a Scorps album.  ;^)

Nexted purchase for me is probably some more Muddy Waters...

    EDMONTON OILERS...WORLD CHAMPIONS....Bruins choke again. And, as usual,
    CoS predicted it. 
    
    /Don...I am Carnac.
    
    JoJ

    Jo*, squat on a woodie.
    
    Mark.

Uh, Mark, uh, would that woodie there, be, uh, laquered?
