I’m listening to the Avs broadcast of the preseason game tonight. I really miss Ralph and Razor at times like these. I really hope these radio announcers aren’t the normal ones, because I feel really bad for Avs fans if they are. They both sound like they’re on Valium or Xanax and they have NO idea what they’re talking about.
They keep referring to some strange defenseman for the Stars named “Math Nishkanen”. I think that’s Nisky, but I really have no idea. They’re also making snide comments about Avery (which I more than approve of), and then they say they’re paying him “close to $2 million”. I wish we were only paying him that much.
They did say several nice things about Modano… although they were mixed in with a bunch of wrong information. Oh well.
Bring on Ralph and Razor! I’m ready for the REAL season to start!

OH GOD, THE NISHKANEN THING. JESUS CHRIST IT’S SO ANNOYING. Every time I hear them say it, I clench my teeth and hiss, not even kidding.
Thank God Thursday night’s game will be on 820 with Ralph and Razor!!
Oh, god, I thought I was the only one. I would just love to strangle both of those announcers!!! I dislike the Aves anyway, but this is just unbearable.
When I first heard them say it, I thought to myself “ok, they got it wrong. They’ll correct them selves in a minute.” HA, no such luck.
I keep turning the feed off, then I can’t stand it and turn it back on. GEEEAAAACCCCKKKK.

Thanks Cat, I had no idea R&R were doing the game tomorrow! I will definitely have to listen when I get out of class.

They tried to correct themselves with the whole Brunnstrom thing. After 2 periods of calling him “Broonstrum” one of them apologized and called him “Brunnstrom” once.. then it was back to good old “Broonstrum”
UGH I want Ralph and Razor

I’m just praying that I get to listen tonight. It will be so pleasent to hear everyones names pronounced CORRECTLY.
Oh, and AMY. I thought that the “Broonstrom” thing was my imagination?!?!? (But after the “Nishkanen” business I should have expected it.) For crying out loud, it’s Swedish, not rocket sicence.
