Tune Tuesday: Chelsea Dagger (Blackhawk Tribute)

A Tribute to HATtrick Kane and the 2008-2009 Chicago Blackhawks!

To carry on the post from yesterday, and to start a new weekly feature, I am starting Tune Tuesdays. If I can keep my act together, I will update this blog with a favorite song from present or something from the past. Most likely, the song is being played on my mp3 player while out on the bike.

I have to admit. When I first heard this song, Chelsea Dagger by the Fratellis, I was not a big fan. Even hearing it for the first couple of games, after a Hawks goal, it was hard for me to join the fun. Then for whatever reason, maybe being caught up in the moment, maybe finding fun in the song, I was chanting along. I even start singing during the Amstel Light commercials, which plays Chelsea's Dagger.

Now when I hear this song, it reminds of the Chicago Blackhawks. Much like Journeys, Don't Stop Believing for the World Series Champs in 2005, the Chicago White Sox. That was until the Sopranos ruined it for me with that terrible series finale.

By the way... whats the over under that I don't post a new tune next week?

Jesus Saves!

"Jesus Saves! Passes To Noah... He Shoots, He Scores!"

Ha! I bet I had you going with the title of this blog. It's post hockey season here in Chicago. Something that does not happen very often. Blackhawks are in round 3 with 8 wins away from lifting the Stanley Cup. Although after yesterdays performance, the only thing the Hawks maybe lifting is the box with their locker crap in it.

Who ever they mystery commenter from my last post is, I would be more then happy to take that bet. (Spaz..is that you?) There are no losers when it comes to drinking beer and eating wings. The loser has to pay for the other dinner. Oh, can we go on .25 cent wing night. It will save me a few bucks.

Thanks to Bandit Brother Matt who passed me along the t-shirt joke. You can buy the shirt here.
