About Me:
Big NFL nut. There is nothing better than NFL Sunday. (Or Monday...or Saturday...) If there is an NFL game on, you can bet I'll be watching it or at least trying to watch it. I'm a Colts fan, spent 15 years of my life in the great state of Indiana before moving to Michigan 2 years ago, and it kills me being forced to watch the Lions each week. 49ers are my favorite NFC team, just because as a kid, my favorite player was (and probably still is) Jerry Rice.

I can enjoy most sports. Hockey, in person, is fantastic and may be the best in person. I go to each of Ferris State's College hockey games, and I watch the NHL, although more in the playoffs than regular season. Didn't get in to hockey until I came to Michigan, thus I'm a Wings fan.

I do enjoy baseball, and am a Cubs fan from a long line of Cubs fans in the family. I like basketball, but I ultimately probably enjoy high school ball the best, as it's really the game at it's purest form and how it's meant to be. College football games I do find interesting, but I can't get in to it because I know there won't be a legitimate finale to the season thanks to the worthless BCS.

I do public address announcing for my high school's various sporting events, and have done football, baseball, softball, soccer, wrestling, and basketball. I've also do PA for a club hockey team at Ferris State, and I did color commentary on a local radio station for my high schools' football team (1-9 d'oh!) as well as a few state playoff games.

And...wow I really wrote too much here. The end.

NHL Wrap Around 5-9

Red Wings Start Series With 4-1 Win

MrNFL | 4 days ago

Who’s one step closer to hoisting Lord Stanley? The Wrap-Around is your daily update for last nights’ NHL Playoff action.

Red Wings Roll To Game 1 Win.

Marty Turco had never been a winner at Joe Louis Arena in his NHL career. He had a 0-7-2 record in his career coming into the day, and the record would worsen. Turco did have multiple fantastic saves, but 4 shots still got in out of 31 His team didn't help his cause, as three of the four goals were on powerplay. Dallas only had 21 shots, and Chris Osgood had a very solid game in net. Detroit dominated shots in the first period, and then they were very even in the second and third periods. The Red Wings also dominated the faceoffs.

Detroit started it off with a powerplay goal by defenseman Brian Rafalski. Later in the period, they would get another powerplay goal, this one off of a deflection by Johan Franzen. (His 12th goal of the playoffs) Tomas Holmstrom would score the third powerplay goal in the second period to make it 3-0. Valtteri Filppula would score later in the period on a great pass to set up a breakaway. Brenden Morrow would score late in the second, but that would be the final goal of the game, as Detroit would win 4-1.

With that, Detroit takes a 1-0 series lead, with game two in Detroit on Saturday at 7 PM.
