2008-2009 Preview: Cap’n Chris Clark

Chris Clark and I share a special connection, being Birthday Buddies and all (March 8 in the house!), so it’s only fitting that I should write the official Caps Ladies… Cap’n Chris Clark review. I’m not biased or anything, but this dude is kind of awesome.

Captain Clark...focused...

Pros

• From New England, big Red Sox fan (favorite player: Tim Wakefield)
• Former Team USA Captain
• Tough Ass MoFo
• Yet, incredibly polite and good natured
• English was his favorite subject in school because there are “no wrong answers”
• Alliteration (CCC weeeeee)
• Was in this video, which hands down makes him the Coolest Capitals Captain ever:

Cons

• Missed a lot of last season so we didn’t get to see his intangible leadership and lacerated ear in action
• Apparently a magnet for Alex Ovechkin-shot pucks

Mary’s Fellow Pisces Prediction:

• Will score six goals in his birthday game versus the Penguins. Punches Crosby in the face for diving.
