There is a certain “it” factor Comcast brings through its televised broadcasts of Washington Capitals hockey. That “it” factor is the unique brand of vernacular you might overhear from commentators extraordinaire Joe Beninati and Craig Laughlin through out the game. And that “it” factor yields itself to the Comcast drinking game, re-newed and revamped for the 2009/2010 season. Allé!
* Disclaimer: Capitals hockey is not a drinking game… That being said, if it were, and you were of legal drinking age, these would be the rules. And remember, NEVER drink and drive…
