The Pens and The Cans are playing and I couldn't care less. It had happened, I have no feelings for the Pens, all I can think of is that lyric from carole King's "it's Too Late",Something inside has died and I can't hide and I can't fake it." The game was okay but I left when the Pens made it 6-4.his hasn't happened to me before.Are you as excited about this match up as you are for the Red Wings- Blackhawks ?

As avid and die hard of a hockey fan as I am. As much as the sport consumes my life...I didn't even watch last night's game. I put on the Jays/Red Sox game instead. I think that answers your question. I can't stand Pittsburgh and could care less about Carolina.

are you part of Red Sox nation? If so, welcome. this is the first time I have lost any feelings for a team. I started liking Pittsburgh because of Mario and Jahr and i just kept going. but last night it just drained out of me.so this match up started as a team I like vs a team I fear and hate. Now it's indifference either way. Thankfully The Wings play tonight.

I'm actually very anti-Red Sox. I grew up a Yankee fan but after living in Toronto for five years now I'm very much a Jays fan. Still have a soft spot for those Yankees but if it ever came down to be between the two of them, it's Jays all the way. So when you add it up I HAVE to hate Boston (which I do very much) as a Yankee fan and I HAVE to hate Boston (which I do very much) as a Blue Jay fan. That's double a lot of hate for the Red Sox. This series however...didn't go quite as well as the sweep we gave them to start the year last year. We'll rebound though don't you worry.

That's how I feel about every single sport. The only time I ever got excited about sports were those two years when the Toronto Bluejays made the world series, and WON!!! I think I got really excited during the 9th inning of the last game, but the rest of my life, sports= blah.

I am so different, especially when it comes to hockey. It is my passion. When my Red Wings play, I am so into the game that you could set me on fire and I wouldn't feel it. I love all the guys, I know most of the team by their first names . I used to like the Penguins too , I thought I still did until tonight. Now I know what they mean when they say the opposite of love is indifference. That's how I feel about them.it is so sad.
