Funny Video Of The Day: Alexander Ovechkin Is Quite A Character

As seen and heard in this interview that, I presume, was done recently for the news program “Russia Today”. It’s in Russian but English dubbing has been provided. Most of it’s straightforward but there are some rather silly questions and responses that should elicit a few good laughs (especially from the 5-6 minute point!). The video’s after the jump, enjoy.

Site Update: Rockin’ The Red!

You probably noticed just before this post that what was blue on the blog is now red. I just changed the main color scheme for the blog and it will stay this way until the Washington Capitals are eliminated from the NHL Playoffs, if they are. This is my way of supporting my Caps as the Stanley Cup Playoffs begin tonight and doing what they ask their fans to do: Rock The Red. So the blog will be red in a show of fandom and support throughout their playoff run. Red Is Passion. Red Is Intensity. RED IS CAPS HOCKEY. LET’S GO CAPS! I’ll also blog about how the Caps fare throughout the playoffs after games, so the first post will come tomorrow as Game 1 of their quarterfinals matchup against the New York Rangers is tonight. This game is only on local TV in the Baltimore/Washington and New York City areas and maybe on TSN in Canada. The rest of the games will be nationwide on NBC or Versus starting with Game 2 Saturday afternoon.
