10 Signs You're A Nashville Predators Fan

If you went to the doctor and they diagnosed you with fang finger fever these would be your symptoms.


1. You don't remember the original chorus to "I like it, I love it".

When you hear "I like it, I love it" come on the radio you automatically sing the goal song. At this point you don't even know what the original song said. Nothing is sweeter than seeing Tim McGraw pop up on the jumbotron and singing along.


2. You hate the Blackhawks.

When I was younger I didn't think I could ever hate a team as much as I hated the Red Wings....boy was I wrong. Blackhawk fans are more obnoxious than their players and being around them makes you break out in hives. Yes, we know how many times you've won the Stanley Cup. Thanks for letting us know...again.


3. Nothing tastes better than a free frosty.

The "we want frosties chant" is a fan favorite on game night. You can either eat one in celebration or eat one in mourning. After scoring four goals it's more than likely in celebration. Thanks Wendy's!


4. Pekka Rinne is your hero.

The loudest roar you'll hear at a Preds game is when they announce Pekka as the starting goalie. He lets you rest a little easier in your seat knowing he will stop almost every puck that comes his way.


5. You constantly have to defend your team.

Yes, we are a small market team in the south. Yes, I do know every players name. Yes, we do have real talent. Yes, we do have sellouts. No, we don't want your pity. Yes, we are going to win a Stanley Cup. The list could go on but the main thing we want people to know is Bridgestone Arena has NEVER looked as empty as a Florida Panthers game.


6. You know way too many Shea Weber/Chuck Norris jokes.

"Shea Weber's slap shot is the only known object to be able to escape the fate of a black hole."

"The only reason Forrest Gump kept running was because he thought Shea Weber was behind him."

"Gandalf said, "You shall not pass." Shea Weber said, "Try me.""

"Light wishes it was as fast as one of Shea Weber's slap shots."


7. You know how biased the NHL and their refs are.

If the Blackhawks didn't do it then the NHL isn't going to talk about it. God forbid they end Patrick Kane's point streak for goal tender interference. Can you imagine how good we would be if the NHL liked us?


8. You love the team off the ice even more than on the ice.

You love the team for what they do on the ice but love them even more for what they do in the community. They are always working with the Preds Foundation to go to cancer wards, schools and charity events. Our front office is so awesome that we don't even have to get paid to do veteran tributes *cough* Minnesota Wild *cough*.


9. Pete and Terry are your favorite broadcasters.

Why these two aren't together doing play-by-play is beyond me. They will forever be a fan favorite broadcasting duo. Pete always has a smile on his face (even after a heart attack) and Terry always has a lighthearted joke to tell.


10. You can't wait for Paul to say "thank you" someday.

Come on Preds PA Paul...it's the polite thing to do. Chances are you've taken someone to their first Predators game and they've asked "Who's Paul?" after we tell him thanks for being so nice and letting us know there's one minute left. One of these days Paul is going to say "You're welcome", drop the mic and walk away.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
