ST. PAT

In honor of St. Patrick's Day, and in celebration of the patron saint of green beer, here are all the "Pats" I could think of:

Patrick Roy - known former NHL goalie, he of the 551 wins, Cups, Conn Smythes, Hall of Fame plaque and draft position well behind yours truly

Patrick Duffy -- Bobby Ewing...and The Man from Atlantis

Pat Verbeek -- The Little Ball of Hate

Pat Sajak -- Vanna's sidekick

Lester Patrick -- The original great American (before Modano)

Patrick Swayze -- Dirty Dancer, Ghost, Roadhouse bouncer

Patrick Sharp -- Shorthanded threat

Dan Patrick -- en Fuego, One half of the Big Show

Danika Patrick -- Hot, the Anna Kournikova of racing

Pat Lafontaine, Pat Flatley -- former Isles

Pat Falloon -- the guy taken after Lindros

Pats of New England -- good football team, hoody wearing coach, voyeurs

Standing Pat -- very self-assured, lacks adventuresome side

Patrick Dempsey -- McDreamy (I guess Ambien and Nyquil are now available in Happy Meals?)

Pat Summitt -- that lady who coaches Tennessee women's basketball

Pat Summerall -- Golden Throat

Tera Patrick -- does some acting..."boom-shick-a-wow-wow"

Jason Patrick -- was an actor

Pat Benetar -- elfin 80s pop star who once hit me with her best shot

Patrick Kane -- the next great American, yes he's able.

Pat Quinn -- What an Irish-Canadian hockey player, coach, G.M., and president should look like and act.

Today my McBloggies - May you guzzle the green as your told, and then put thyne own pee on hold, for so long that thyne eyes are forever more emerald.
