The Kings played the Ducks tonight at the Honda Center and the hubby and I watched the game on FSN West. They were showing the game from a "rinkside view" which basically means down low and without the annoying announcers. I liked it! It was sorta like having glass seats without losing any of the action.
A few observations:
-Not having commercials and getting to go behind the scenes was kinda cool
-The Ducks' owner's wife seemed that she'd had a tad too much to drink to be interviewed on live TV
-While the commentators were not on TV, the hubby felt compelled to do his own commentary and yell at the TV when appropriate - this was after I'd commented (early in the 1st period) that this version was more calm, relaxing, and enjoyable
-The reporter for all the behind the scenes stuff was annoying
-Whenever there was a chance they were sure to show the "Quack Whores" as I call them aka the scantily clad girls who shovel the ice
-Do not be offended by "Quack Whores" - I use Quack whenever possible in reference to the Ducks (sorry Kim!): Quack in the Box (Duck penalty), Little Quackies (their little players), Quack Heads (obnoxious fans), etc.
The fact that you didn't mention the score hopefully means that the Ducks won!!!
ReplyDeleteGames not over yet Kim - it's tied with 5:41 left!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to the Ducks for their 4-3 victory over the Kings!
ReplyDeleteHaha I like the names.. Quack Heads and Quack Whores. I think the fans should adopt that permanently!
ReplyDeleteWe'll just see how it goes tomorrow night...the Ducks have been terrible on the road, and this is technically a road game for them coming up!
ReplyDeleteOh, and there's one thing you forgot to mention about the Ducks owners...they are big UCLA fans! Pickle, I think this is another reason for you to hate the Ducks!! :)
ReplyDeletelmao about the owner's wife!
ReplyDeleteGo Redwings!
