NHL Playoff Betting: Free Stanley Cup Predictions

Don't tell me I don't know anything about hockey. I still remember the day when Wayne Gretzky was traded from the Edmonton Oilers to the Los Angeles Kings. (It was a sad day indeed.) I grew up watching hockey, okay? And yeah... it may not be as "cool" as football or basketball, but it takes balls to strap on a pair of blades and skate around an ice-cold rink, taking shots at the goalie and pounding your friends into the boards. Ever tried it yourself? Then shut your trap. Ice hockey is brutal. (Todd Bertuzzi's sucker punch on Steve Moore is a perfect example of how brutal it can get.)

But I digress.

The NHL playoffs are underway and several teams have made a case for themselves as serious contenders for the Stanley Cup. "See ya, wouldn't want to be ya" Calgary Flames and Minnesota Wild. Better luck next year (ha!!). And I'm sorry, Penguins fans, but this is not going to be your year either. So... who will take home the Stanley Cup?

Odds to win the Stanley Cup favor the Anaheim Ducks at 9/2 and I couldn't agree more. Bet with your head and not with your hearts, hockey fans. The Ducks are not my team, but I really can't see the Vancouver Canucks winning it all... sadly.

Lindsay Lohan is a Lesbian

So what. I mean so what if she's into girls and so what if she isn't? Should it be that big of a deal? Apparently so.

The latest rumor that "Mean Girls" star Lindsay Lohan is having a 'lesbian love affair' with DJ Samantha Ronson has gossipmongers up in arms. How could a beautiful, young celebrity like Lohan possibly entertain the idea of giving up men for women? And furthermore, what could she possibly see in Ronson, who (let's face it) looks a bit butch?

Former Hollywood publicist Jonathan Jaxson says, "Maybe she was tired of the boys and that is why she decided to spice it up with BFF Samantha Ronson."

Maybe. But maybe Lohan isn't doing anything of the sort and she's just hanging out with her friend? Unless someone has seen the two go at it the possibility that this might actually be nothing more than two girls enjoying each other's company should at least be considered. Call me crazy.

What are your thoughts? Got any photos to prove that this is more than just a rumor?? Send 'em my way!
