During the last battery is proven tough and designed to stand up to even the most extreme weather conditions with patents and technology to deliver the most power during startup, get in the zone auto zone. There are two teams that are fundamentally in the zone.

One of them no one would have predicted the other one everyone would have predicted. I hope that your Tuesday is going spectacularly well if you are in the Bay area or you are in the city of Nashville.

Chances are the answer is it is going spectacularly well because that is where the number one stories of the night came from. We begin with the golden state warriors going 12 and 0 maybe more dominant than anybody would have anticipated.

Their celebration as muted as possible they had no entrance in the Western conference championship other than the fact that it gets them to the NBA finals and now they have the opportunity to rest for 10 days until they will go play against probably presumably unless there is one of the greatest collapses in the history of the NBA.

The Cleveland Cavaliers where they can finally get vengeance with their new buddy Kevin Durant on the Cleveland Cavaliers for a three to one series collapse last season on the other side of the equation.

We had an NHL team that no one anticipated would win a single series. They were huge underdogs against the Chicago Black Hawks the Nashville Predators beat them four to no.

They were underdogs against the St. Louis Blues they had Nashville Predators beat them four to two and last night at home in what has become known colloquially as smashville the city of Nashville took down the Anaheim duck six three win in one of the most a rock us environments you will ever see inside of an arena in this country and the celebration.

And the celebration I am sure is still going on in Nashville now setting up what will be one of the wildest weeks of entertainment than any city in America will have anywhere at any point in time with the Stanley Cup finals set to overlap with CMA fest if you know anything at all about CMA fest it's basically when every girl in the South and beyond comes to the city of Nashville in her sundress and cowboy boots and every boy in the vicinity of Nashville.

The bell buckle shows up gets drunk and cheers on country music combine that with the best of Canada and you've got SEC party lifestyle meeting Canadian party lifestyle all rolling into one as I tweeted last week Nashville may well set a record per capita for plan B consumption there's going to be a whole lot of drunken sex going on in this city what an incredible scene for Nashville.

I'm got me thinking to I went back and looked at the statistics it's rare that a major American city gets the opportunity to join the list of teams that have the cities that have won championships most every American sports city out there that has multiple pro sports franchises has won a championship at some point in time and I confess that I'm not an expert on this but I looked at my list and if you've got one that I'm missing you can let me know but right now I believe I'm going to be a great man.

I'm not counting the MLS yet okay in this in this category I'm just counting obviously major league baseball the NFL the NBA and the NHL the only two cities I can think of off the top of my head that have not won championships now I'm tossing Vegas out the window obviously because they're NHL and NFL franchise is haven't started I believe our Nashville and Charlotte.

Rollie won a championship the Carolina whatever they're called the Carolina hockey team won a championship but that's in rolly Nashville has been to the Super Bowl with the predators in that memorable 23 to 16 loss when the St. Louis Rams tackled the Tennessee Titans at the one yard line Kevin Dyson tackled at the one yard line but now going to the Stanley Cup I know obviously there are teams with one franchise that have never won a championship whether it's Memphis or Orlando Utah

Portland I believe all those school of Portland won a championship maybe at one point I believe though didn't they so I think I'm correct in that but this is a opportunity for one of the few cities out there we talked about the most futile city in all of American pro sports right now being Washington but the redskins have won three Super bowls I believe Nashville and Charlotte are the only cities in America with multiple it pro sports franchises that have never won a championship city of Nashville advancing and

that should be really awesome to see but it also opens a window into why I think the NHL playoffs are so much more superior thus far to what we've seen from the NBA other than the Cavs collapse and maybe Adam silver ordering the code red so he didn't have as many days off between championship games what was fascinating about the playoffs so far in the NHL versus the playoffs so far in the NBA is how unpredictable the playoffs in the NHL have been you're talking about the Nashville predators as the NHL

and the NHL is the eighth seed now I know the LA Kings have made the run before as the eighth seed to win the Stanley Cup this is a Nashville predator team that nobody expected anything out of it all and they just caught fire lightning in a bottle everything is coming their direction and started rolling and as a result wow what an unbelievable home environment they have had seven and one on home ice I want to bring in Jason Martin because he was there Jason how would you contextualize the environment last night between the

Legend and the backs I can't and I've done a lot of events throughout the years both for this kind of work and and just as a fan in my 38 years on this planet I've never been in anything even remotely close to what came last night at various times I mean it was to the extent that people's ears were actually hurting there were times where my ears were throbbing it was so loud on the inside and said and they said again as book a world record record laterally I mean I know they heard

literally, I mean, I know they had to get us book people there

potentially to set a record for the loudest crowd ever inside of an arena, I

believe. Yeah, I don't know that they've announced the number yet, but I can

tell you that in you were there, obviously, for a game four, it was louder than

game four and they were close to beating the Allen field house indoor record
