Aw gee TJ, you posted this pic of Ovie emailing me to ask what I was going to say about him and portal on the other thread. :)

@tj: Have fun fishing!

@BobbyG: haha! Seems like something Ovi would do. He likes attention.

Here's a link to a story and logo/ad for the Ovie/Kovy charity hockey game on August 31. Google translate says the game will be played at 19:30 at the Ice Palace "Sokolniki" and will be shown live on Russia-2 TV channel.

I always find myself checking this site 5x as much when I know TJ won't be updating it, like I'm going to come on and see something new even though I never do :)

Yulina said...

@Marge: Same here... or maybe because TJ left a picture of shirtless Ovi as the going away message. :P

BobbyG said...

Ha, I agree, a big thank you to TJ for at least leaving us with a pic of shirtless Ovie before taking off fishing. I hope TJ lands a big one, but not Mr. Big because I want him all for myself LOL. Yes, I'm that greedy. :)

Not much happening on the OvieWatch2011 front lately. At least we can look forward to more candy bar ads. The Official Mr. Big YouTube channel will reveal all 7 ads by the end of next week:

It's video of Alex Semin with youth team in Krasnoyarsk, skating and helping them train.

@Yulina I was just coming herebu to post that link.

TJ, I hope you're enjoying your trip but please hurry back and translate the Semin video!

Devi said...

I leave for two days to san diego and a lot of things happen while I'm gone! T-T

AB said...

Sasha Stole my Heart Tumblr has a lot of pics of Semin up. My favorite is this one in his red Team Russian sweats and his Caps hat and bright blue crocs! Surprised they aren't purple.

For those who like participating in polls, especially involving Ovie, there's a very interesting one today in The Noon Number on Japers' Rink. The question posed is, Which is more likely: that Alex Ovechkin will have no 50-goal seasons over the rest of his career or that he'll have at least two such campaigns?

I think you can guess what the results are so far. Check it out and cast your own vote if the spirit moves you.
