The fans love Alex Steen, and not just for his nose.

Blues news

russkidan and medel19 want to remind you to vote for David Perron ... TODAY. He's going up against Daniel Sedin, so we know who should win. [Goal of the Year]
ilb passes along the results of the Blues fan awards. I gotta say, I'm impressed with Blues fans. Alex Steen as MVP and Mike Weaver as unsung hero are great picks. If Cardinal fans had a vote, it would be T.J. Oshie for both. [Blues]

Hockey news

Guy Boucher tells the Blue Jackets no.[The Cannon]
Guy Boucher says yes to Tampa Bay. [Raw Charge]
The Jackets have moved on. [TSN]
The Flyers haven't decided which goalie is going to get lit up in Game 6. [TSN]
As the Coyotes Turn ... And then there was one. [TSN]
Did Dustin Byfuglien have a great game because of Chris Pronger's bad game or did he cause Pronger's poor showing? [SB Nation]

Jim makes pancakes. This is way more interesting than it sounds. [Jim's Pancakes]
Calvin without Hobbes is just depressing. Side note: A few weeks back I found a site with the entire run of Calvin. Before I could link it, it got shut down. It made me sad. [Calvin Minus Hobbes]
In general, fliers are useless. These are very useless. [Useless Fliers]

I call bull

on the video. Dude 1 is moving the bin before dude 2 has his blindfold on.

But kudos to dude 2 for taking one in the jewels for youTube fame.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

If you are walking around in public chatting on a cell phone oblivious to those around you, I WILL exercise my right to be very rude to you.

/That is all.

Let's go Blues!!!

So I saw on VEB today that the St. Louis SBNation site launches on the 15th.

Should we expect there to be the same kind of SLGT-style coverage from the Blues content, or is that wishful thinking?

I know it's time for hockey because I've started singing "Don't Stop Believing" with the words "...born and raised in FUCK DETRIOT!!!"

Depends on who they've tapped to cover the Blues specifically.

I thought that they were keeping all the hub launchings hush-hush… looks like VEB spilled the beans when they weren’t supposed to. Anywho, interesting that Atlanta’s one of the last ones to launch – I don’t think the hub for here goes until the 20th or 24th or whatever.

Here’s the Chicago hub for an example:

Thrashing the Blues

Reporter: There`s a "stamp out the Beatles movement" underway in Detroit. What are you going to do about it?

Paul McCartney: We`re going to start a campaign to stamp out Detroit.

Correct me if I'm wrong...

…but aren’t WE the SBNation site for the Blues?

What in the name of Samuel Hill is going on here?

Color me confused.

Oh, and fan ta those stuck-up elitists at VEB, too…

They remind me of the little princess in high school that thinks her shit doesn’t stink…

I only read the site, I've only commented once.

I really like the coverage of the posts, even if the community is pretty much like you put it.

In other words, yeah the high school princess is a bitch – but I still say she’s hot!
