I was pulling for the Flames to win the Stanley Cup, but...
...then I saw at the Cup ceremony after the game that the Lightning are owned by Bill Davidson, who also owns...

...the Detroit Pistons. :D

So, um...yay, Lightning!

1. Be cool for him to get 2 titles this year
I know the odds are still long, but I hold out optimism that Detroit can defeat Los Angeles.

It's good to see a hockey team in Florida get their act together. Besides one great year, the Panthers have been atrocious. With Martin, they're on their 3rd coach in the past year.

2. He owns the WNBA Champs Detroit Shock too.
But sorry Paragon he's gonna have to settle for 2 out of 3.

Because this year's ring has to go to the Mailman!

4. Maybe Karl can score more than 4 points tomorrow
I know Malone's role has been reduced in Los Angeles, but that was one miserable performance Sunday.

5. Only the second worse Finals performance I've seen.
And Karl was in that one too!

*reaches for Jazz media guide*

JUNE 7, 1998 :wow: CHICAGO 96 UTAH 54 :wow:

Karl scored 22 points in what was then the worst game ever in the history of the shot clock or something like that. I watched it in a bar while at a wedding reception.
