I didn’t expect this series to start off so physical.

That was a hell of a save by Price.

The pain of watching the Lightning lose forced me to go buy a new batch of edibles. Knock Your Richard in the Dirt Chocolate Chip cookies and OMG I Forgot How to Breathe peanut butter drops.

I am prepared for anything that happens in Game Two.

Saw a stat that the Lightning are 7-4 in series where they drop game 1 at home which is pretty incredible imo. It would be awesome if they can get another win today. Lightning are going to come out of a cannon tonight. Have to weather the storm in the first and counter punch when they eventually let up.

Hopefully they can match inensity and create transition off of Tampas expected aggression. If the Isles can get an early lead and continue to keep Tampa's players on the perimeter, they'll get frustrated fast

Then you keep the edibles and Vasi gets the whiskey.
- Wildschwein

I bet Vasi is a vodka man.

Those Russians and their clear liquor that tastes like rubbing alcohol.

To be fair, Russian vodka is damn good, if vodka is your thing.

Grey Goose and Absolut are phucking terrible. I don't understand how people can drink that poop and enjoy it. But to each their own I guess.

Top shelf vodka is an odd choice to me. They typically have no taste. Its like water. So you end up paying more, to taste less. It's good for mixers, but I see little point in drinking it straight.
For my money, I prefer a good top end Reposado or bourbon if we're drinking straight

If I do drink vodka it's usually Ketel...or Tito's, if I'm in it to win it. Never drink the stuff straight though. Only liquor I enjoy drinking by itself is whiskey.

I am happy with Smirnoff or Skyy. And whiskey on the rocks works fine, especially in the summer, but vodka on the rocks.......never.

Yea not a martini or vokda on the rocks kinda guy. I'm the opposite on whiskey though. It's rare I touch the stuff when it's warm out, for me that's a cold weather drink.

Straight vodka on the rocks is for Russians and monsters.

Straight whiskey is for hillbillies and madmen. (I'm probably a little both).
