No Regrets.

I have no regrets. The boys should be proud of what they did. They defied the odds numerous times and it only eluded them that final time. No regrets. Not one.

They were the 7th seed, decided on the last day on shootout. They battled past severe injuries and defied the will of both commentators and higher ranked teams. Definitely no regrets.

The only thing that saddens me has to do with me being an extreme hockey fan. I used to cheer for the Hawks when they weren't playing the Flyers and I can say with confidence that will never happen again. The lack of respect shown by the media and their fans was disgraceful and insulting to the sport of hockey. I will not endorse it. Not ever. So Hawks you have lost all my respect and that's a tough thing to do. Chicago has lost my respect too. I don't care if you are an original six. If your media can act like a tabloid and you let them, you disrespected the greatest sport on the planet and I wash my hands of you.

I will shed not 1 tear over this loss. The Flyers should be extremely proud. What they should remember is that we cheered them after the loss. While I'm sure they could hardly hear anything outside of their isolation, we cheered them b/c we have nothing to be ashamed of. We have no regrets and neither should they.

Thanks for one hell of a ride boys. I'm so thankful that you took us along. I will never forget it.

No regrets.

Holy history Batman....or Hockey gods DO exist....

No matter what transpires going forward (and regardless of what happened last night) I couldn't be prouder of the guys. Enough said.
