Mike Richards or Mike Awesome?



Being that Deutsche Bank had the marbles to slap a 0$ price tag on General Motors today I felt the need to upgrade Mike Richards. Thanks DB! A simple sell without a tag would have been fine. This is what I think of that price tag.There is something in the way that Mike Richards plays that just gets me sooo excited. He plays with a tenacity not seen in awhile. Not quite as flary as Ovy, not quite as pronounced as Crosby but so Bepop and Rock Steady like the old oxen you picked up on the Oregon Trail. They always gave me a tough time on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turts. A mean cleaness to his game. Take for example the hit on Schubert, Ottawa tough nut last Thursday. I can't get the video up here but please...please do yourself a favor and go to nhl.com/scores/ last Thursday, Flyers v. Senators and watch the video highlights because damn! The hit was so hard, so dirty but so clean. He hit Schubert so hard that it made Schubert lay on the ice for a bit afterwards thinking about how he messed up his breakwawy chance completely and how Mike Richards let him know how he messed up his opportunity. This hit, above his scoring ability and leadership qualities best incapsulates what makes Mike Richards so great. He is Mike Awesome.If you tried to beat some of the announcers, the Japanese one's, you couldn't even begin to. By the way, if me and Nemy had to do a show with Ronald Petrovicky, what would I say? Is there anything to say? Pre-game meal? ARZELLionSource
