  1. Ackward dance moves…

    Yes, this is their series to lose. Broad Street doesn’t have anything on the talent of the Hawks.

  2. move your arms man!

  3. Yes they will win it all… Then only two Chicago teams will the be longest without a championship in their leages.

    The Cubs and the Cardinals (yes they are in Phoenix now but they started out as the Chicago Cardinals)

  4. I take back what I said about Niemi’s experience. This last round gave me a lot of hope. We should win in 6.

  5. Also is it just me or does Quinn see to bump awkwardly into the woman next to him…

  6. He’s almost as good a dancer as he is a poker player

  7. everyone’s a hockey fan now. cute.

    Comment by Coach Q Friday, May 28, 10 @ 11:15 am

  8. The swagger of a champion is unmistakable. Blackhawks in 5 games.

  9. OneMan, my eyes saw her trying to playfully rub her body on the guv and he moved away after a bit. But not immediately. Funny stuff, but he’s single, so no biggie.

  10. Nothing wrong with it… After Rod it’s nice to see a governor lacking in smoooooth

  11. Best chance in ages. I say they win.

    And the world would be a better place if we all danced a little more.

    Comment by Fan of the Game Friday, May 28, 10 @ 11:37 am

  12. He should have just started dancing with the woman next to him — would have been a classy move to use a dance partner.

    Also, Rich, you should close the comments today with the full video of “Chelsea’s Dagger” in honor of the Blackhawks. The Trib posted it yesterday, I think.

  13. if you’re going to promote the hawks on here, don’t play chelsea dagger. play the playoff intro: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kdZFG1REV3c

  14. Great picture.

    Quinn, “We owe wha???”

    Comment by jaded voter Friday, May 28, 10 @ 11:58 am

  15. That says it all. The only thing Quinn really has going for him is that he’s a lovable loser. He’s the political version of the Cubs.

    Quinn makes Buzz Aldrin look like Denny Terrio with those moves.

    Comment by just sayin' Friday, May 28, 10 @ 12:01 pm

  16. I can kind of understand why the man is currently single.

    Comment by Anon Friday, May 28, 10 @ 1:12 pm

  17. Hawks in five.

    Niemi has been standing on his head, but Toews is the guy. He’s like a young Messier — whatever needs to be done, he can do it. He makes everyone around him better.

  18. I think I’ve said this here, but at the final buzzer after the Red Wings lost in the Cup last year, I picked the Blackhawks to win it in 2010. I’m sticking with my pick.

  19. But did you see Pelosi presiding over the House in a Sharks jersey? Of course not…
