and the Nats didn't get there until I'd left home (I'm still a fan, but I always wore Dodger Blue in baseball). But my love for the the Caps has never waned in the slightest. Which means I have to hate the Penguins (and the Rangers, but mostly the Pens).

I still think the Pens are the beneficiaries of some of the most ridiculous good fortune in hockey this postseason, not to mention a pair of otherworldly goalies. But mostly I think that because I hate them.
