Can you please answer these "It is just me" hockey questions???!!!???

Question

I struggled with this question, because I was not sure if it grammatically should state, “Is it just me…” or “Is it just I…” .

I settled with "me"

1) Is it just me, or does Don Cherry’s appearance remind you of Earnest Hemingway?

2) Is it just me, or does Ovechkin look like he has a smelly mouth? I bet if you put your nose in there and took a whiff, you would vomit.

3) Is it just me, or on that Versus commercial when they talk about 6 dollar champagne tasting good; do you think that guy that buys 6 dollar champagne for the Stanley Cup winner, needs to be fired?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdtscA4wnCo

4) It is just me, or does the Hockey Hall of Fame’s old CNE location look MUCH larger than the Bank of Montreal Building where it is currently located?

5) Is it just me, or do you think if the Penguins win the Stanley Cup, Wheaties will put Sidney Crosby on the cereal box? What will they do if Detroit wins….put the entire team on the box?

Answer 1

1) Cherry reminds me of some toursit to Hawaii wearing overly-bright Hawaiian shirts, only he somehow found a place that makes Hawaiian suits.  That guy has got mucho flare.

2) Maybe he should be on those Orbitz commercials. Fabulous.

3) Maybe it was $6 champagne back when the NHL started, but no way in todays world are they actually enjoying $6 champagne outside of the tradition of it.

4) I haven't seen the new HOF building so I can't say.  Last time I went to the HOF I was like 12 years old back in 99 or so so I cant give you an accurate scale representation.  I can tell you that it was g*y pride week and I got to ride in the elevators with lots of queens lol. I <3 Toronto.

5) They still make Wheaties?  Crosby is the face of the frnchise and the NHL so I wouldn't doubt a solo appearance by him.  Detroit lacks that face player.  Who would they put on the box: The Mule, Two Euro players who no one would recognize?  The only likely choice would be Lidstrom although McCarty would look cool on the box.

Answer 2

1. lol funny! i agree!

2. definately.. i've always thought that!

3. yeah he does

4.YES!!! it looked so so so much bigger!

5.sid the kid will for sure be o the cereal box!

Answer 3

1)No, he reminds me of that Paul Sr. (can't remember last name) guy on "American Chopper"

2)He looks like one of those homeless dudes that wash your windshield with spit and a squeege, then demand a dollar for their "services"

3) Hey, I'm not pouring Dom Perignon ( or however you spell it)on someone's head or spraying it. That is what the Andre Cold Duck is for. (Insert really old holiday commercial here)

If Crosby and Malkin drink any, I think the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms should give the Pens big fines for underage drinking. The police should be called in to arrest the team owner as well as the dude who bought the 6 buck champagne for corrupting the morals of minors...............   "Got Milk?" anybody?

4) I was only there once back in 1982, so unfortunately I can't make a comparison.

5) How about Chelios sitting in his  power wheelchair with the basket hanging in front, and grandkids?

Answer 4

1) In some pictures, I can see it a little bit. But I always thought Sean Connery looked like Ernest Hemingway.

2) LOL. Umm... I've actually never wondered about this. Upon thinking about it though, Ovie seems like one of those guys that would reek of alcohol. He seems to be perpetually drunk.

3) Now this I have thought about! 6 dollar champagne?? Should an NHL player drink 6 dollar champagne... after winning what is considered by some to be the hardest trophy to win in sports, the Stanley Cup? I think not. FIRE that guy!

...Then again, maybe it's just sparkling apple juice or non-alcoholic champagne. There are usually some underagers on the US teams... (There's another question; do they drink alcohol from the Cup? I think they should be allowed to! It's tradition!)

4) See LITY's answer. Lol.

5) Maybe he'll get on a jar of peanut butter like Jagr did... I could see Zetterberg being on all kinds of products in Sweden, if he isn't already. Apparently they looove the guy over there.

Answer 5

1. Yes

2. I've always imagined the "liver and onions" smell

3. I'm partial to $5.99 Andre, so I'll plead the 5th

4. Yes

5. I agree completely

Answer 6

1. No idea, Haley.

2. Nah, I think only you think that.

3. Eh, no. Alcohol is alcohol, so drink up.

4. No idea.

5. If Detroit wins they will put Osgood on the front cover.

Answer 7

1)  It's just you my dear!

2)  It's just you my dear!  (I never ever thought of that at all)

3)  Yes

4)  Not only does it LOOK much larger, it IS much larger.  But, the old building only had one good floor for exhibits, etc while the new building comes completed with a LOT more total exhibit space, as well as REAL vaults

5)  It's just you dear!   I don't think Wheaties cares about hockey

Answer 8

1. Hahha, Yup it actually remindes me of an old man, that dosnt know how to dress.

2. lol yah it does look like it :P

3. absolutely

4. No clue...

5. again, you're probably right.

Answer 9

Don Cherry reminds me of GOD

Answer 10

1- He reminds me more of a crab-apple tree in bloom.

2- Looks a lot like a gopher hole...which I'm sure isn't the best smelling place on earth.

3- Who cares...the guys would probably want beer instead. Champagne is over rated.

4- Looks are deceiving....my p***s is 10 inches.

5- Just be glad it ain't the Caps...I'm thinking Wheaties fixed the Caps games just so they wouldn't have to put OV on there.

Answer 11

I settled with "me"

And you were right - try saying the sentence in the plural 'is it just us/we' and if it sounds right with 'us' then use 'me'

1) Is it just me, or does Don Cherry’s appearance remind you of Earnest Hemingway?   Lawrence Llewellyn Bowen

2) Is it just me, or does Ovechkin look like he has a smelly mouth? I bet if you put your nose in there and took a whiff, you would vomit.

Rather you than me, but post game I bet even Nick Lidstrom is smelly!

3) Is it just me, or on that Versus commercial when they talk about 6 dollar champagne tasting good; do you think that guy that buys 6 dollar champagne for the Stanley Cup winner, needs to be fired?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdtscA4wn...

Yes!  My husband argued for weeks that they said $6000.

4) It is just me, or does the Hockey Hall of Fame’s old CNE location look MUCH larger than the Bank of Montreal Building where it is currently located?

A lot of it is underground, and that whole complex is very pretty architecturally.

5) Is it just me, or do you think if the Penguins win the Stanley Cup, Wheaties will put Sidney Crosby on the cereal box? What will they do if Detroit wins….put the entire team on the box?

They will have to!  How can you single out one Red Wing?

Answer 12

1. IDK I think if I looked at him to long I might go blind.

2. Just you

3.

4. Never been there

5. They might include in the background Malkin and Hossa.  Yeah just use the pic of the whole team with the Cup that'd work

Answer 13

well to some it up for #5 no i dotn i think Malkin shoudl be on the box he's done so well this year and i give sidney alot of credit but look he was outta the season for a while!!

Answer 14

1. I don't even know what Earnest Hemingway looks (looked) like. If he looks (looked) anything like Don Cherry does, I feel bad for the guy.

2. He should try Orbit.

3. If the Pens win they'll have to buy Welches sparkling grape juice.

4. I think it is bigger.

5. If Pitt wins, Crosby may be on the box. If Detroit wins, an NBA player will be on the box.

Answer 15

Don Cherry's apperance reminds me of an old man hiding behind my grandmothers drapes.... Don't ask.

He just looks like a smelly individual... Shower, Brushing Teeth, Combing hair, optional in his world.

Thats one of the first things I thought when I saw that commercial... WTF would they be doing with 6$ Champagne... If your winning the cup there better be some Dom chilling in the locker room.

I've only been to the new location. It was pretty nice.

If Detroit wins they will put Chelli's face on a Fiber One Box.

**Is Fourthgradic a word? Cause I'd go with that....

Answer 16

1) Is it just me, or does Don Cherry’s appearance remind you of Earnest Hemingway? He does Reminder of Hemingway

2) Is it just me, or does Ovechkin look like he has a smelly mouth? I bet if you put your nose in there and took a whiff, you would vomit.   Can't prove that

3) Is it just me, or on that Versus commercial when they talk about 6 dollar champagne tasting good; do you think that guy that buys 6 dollar champagne for the Stanley Cup winner, needs to be fired?

No need to fire someone that's just saving Money want him to Buy $200.00 in more Expense Tasting Champagne Wake Up now

4) It is just me, or does the Hockey Hall of Fame’s old CNE location look MUCH larger than the Bank of Montreal Building where it is currently located? I agree with you and that, The Bank is bigger then The Hall of Fame

5) Is it just me, or do you think if the Penguins win the Stanley Cup, Wheaties will put Sidney Crosby on the cereal box? What will they do if Detroit wins….put the entire team on the box?  The Pens will win the Cup That and you're also looking at Crosby and Malkin as your New NHL's Dynamic DUO, Pittsburgh has returned to it Glory Again.

Answer 17

Starting a new bit H?You know what really grinds my gears?

1)I'm thinking more Archie Bunker and seeing Grapes Call Mac a "Meathead".

2)I don't see a Colgate commercial in his future.Now Espo has a million dollar smile.

3)I knew an alcohol question would be in here.jk

4)Sure.

5)I think he'll have his own cereal called "Sidney Os"

Answer 18

You are correct in using "me." I could go into the proper uses for I and me, but this isn’t the grammar section.  

1. That is an insult to Papa Hemingway. lol

2. I've never thought about it before, but I can see it.

3. Yes.

4. Dunno

5. I'm not sure Wheaties respects our great game of hockey enough.

Answer 19

1. He kind of looks like Hemingway but looks even more like my old art history prof.

2. Yikes!

3. It can't be any worse than the 'Canes celebrating with Mich Ultra

4. ikd

5. Crosby on the Wheaties box, Ruutu on the Cinnamon Toast Crunch box. For Detroit, Zetterberg and Datysuk on the Wheaties; Chelly on the All-Bran package.

Answer 20

I think it's "Is it just me"

1.) Haha, I think it's just you.  Don Cherry is a little creepier looking.

2.) Yes, definitely!!!  His teeth are all crooked and he just looks like a stinky person in general.  But he sure is one d**n good player.

3.) Nah.  They don't really drink it they just spray it around.

4.) The old one does look a lot bigger.

5.) Wheaties never puts hockey players on the box...at least in the United States they don't.  They might put Crosby on it though.  Detroit, no.

Answer 21

1)  Next time I'm down in Key West, I'll hold a pic up to his bust and compare.

2)  Ovechkin needs some attention from the q***r Eye doods.

3)  Well, you have to have enough champagne for 50 odd people to drink and/or spray on each other.  You start shelling out $500/bottle, it adds up.  No word as to whether or not this counts towards the cap.

4)  When did they move it????  Didn't the entrance used to be in the subway or something?

5)  Wheaties will probably put Crosby up there even if he loses.

Answer 22

1) I've never seen a picture of Ernie.

2) I don't know.  Why don't you go over and ask to put your nose in there.

3) Only the best for the champions.

4) I've never seen them.

5) Possibly.  That might also make the others jump ship after the season.

Answer 23

1) Cherry looks like Elmer Fudd

2) Yes, You nailed this one

3) Well, the owners are pretty cheap

4) I have no knowledge of this

5) No, they will put Kobe Bryant or Kevin Garnett since the NBA Finals end a short time after

Answer 24

(i think you worded it correctly)

1. haha, nice

2. you're making some good points. remember the Jaws / Happy Gilmour ("and you can count ... ON ME ... in the parking lot ... blah blah blah) comments?

3. absolutely

4. no impact (no idea)

5. again, you're probably right. it's that whole Euro thing. Or they'll just wait a week and put KG or Kobe on. (unfortunately)

in summary: no, it's not just you.

add - iceman, good call on Cheli. tom,  #2 i wouldn't try either. #6 absolutely.

Answer 25

1. No. It's just you.

2. Still just you.

3. I don't think it matters either way. No one cares about the champagne after winning the Cup.

4. It's been too long since I've been up there.

5. Does Wheaties even do hockey!? If they do, Crosby is a lock, but for the Wings you can't do better than Nick Lidstrom. He's the best player in the league.

Answer 26

Usually people put "Is it just me?" but who knows if that is grammatically correct.

01. Don Cherry WISHES he resembled Ernest Hemingway!

02. He is not my favorite to look at so I will go with you.  But I truly never hope to know the truth!

03. Fired, tarred and feathered!

04. I agree.  What's up with that?

05. Actually, I am a Wings fan and think they will win.  If that happens I'd like to see Zetts and Datsuyk on the box.

Answer 27

haha. early morning conundrum, but it's really a hard decision to come to. i do the same thing.

1) lol. earnest hemingway? really. i get the connection. well since i like don, i compare him to other characters i like that make me smile i.e. the michelin man or even the pilsbury dough boy. man can do no wrong.

2) no it's not just you. i think the same thing. i've seen him do interviews with this guy cabrel richards http://www.thescore.com/nhl/ who ov loves off, and i swear the first time cabby interviewed him he had this look on his face he couldn't hide. i believe all athletes are smelly, so he's not alone.

3) i haven't seen it so i'm going to check out the link. lol. no he needs a promotion. 6 dollars is way too much. that was an octopus right? anyways i am loving off this mitsubishi commercial they play on cbc during games. absolutely is my favourite commercial right now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vasc8ghyu...

4) looks can be deceiving, but the HHF is still huge, just different location. what i mean by this is that the cne is huge, and because it was a one floor location for the hhf, you're easily decieved by the layout. anyways and although the BMO building looks small, the actual new location is HUGE.

5) lol. tim hortons will be freaking out trying to think of how many ways they can have sidney pose with a timbit/doughnut. if detroit wins maybe they'll honour the octopus...or pavel datsyuk that guy is a character.

i don't know about wheaties but i can remember collecting hockey cards from the cheerios & kellogs boxes.

lol. ll, you mean paul teutul sr of the occ!

lmao erica. really. you stumbled over it. man the score have great interview people (there's a new guy there gerry d (last comic standing) who just recently interviewed the silent asian ov). and dion is such a homer (he always messes up the song. it's the easiest song). i love when cabs goes to calgary though, cause he knows everyone on the team and the people in the city are so nice to him...whereas back home in toronto, we do love him, but i'm sure someone would run him over. if you like basketball, he also has great basketball interviews. i can't wait till he does a boxing/mma interview and someone actually gets him to do a move.

Answer 28

1. Don Cherry is Papa. Actually he isn't the old man of the sea but the tuna.

2. It must be you I wouldn't try it.

3. If the penguins win the cup the champagne will be ginger ale because all the under age players. Actually Robbie will be drinking cranberry juice.

4. I think you must be confusing the old stadium behind the old HHOF. That's gone too. It used to be the home of the Blue Jays and the Argos.

5. Just an Octipussy or calamari or whatever.

6. Is it just me or are the other questions on Y!A hockey getting pretty sophomoric?
