matt, call me crazy, but I think you're a scotch drinker...

lol.... It has become a really nice collection for me. Im starting to get into some pretty nice scotch that last while. hard to find values. though I have a guy who gets me some nice prices but hard to get at times.

I also quite enjoyed that Gold 18 year old as well dash.


there is but one rule in my house when sharing in my scotch. if you take a glass and shoot it down like Jack Daniels I will calmly take your glass away, thank you for your sharing and never give you a scotch from that set again.

My best friend and my brother are both on the blacklist. my brother for taking

this

100 year cask royal salute and poured his fucking coca-cola in it. I just about spit up and then split his head open.

back on topic Auger would actually be a good name for a scotch and yes I think he should be fired

Calgary Flames forward Rene Bourque is scheduled to have a disciplinary hearing for his hit on Chicago Blackhawks defenceman Brent Seabrook on Sunday. Late in the first period, Bourque hit Seabrook from behind, causing the Blackhawks blue liner to slam his head into the glass. He did not return to the game.

Not surprised by this development although I think bad positioning by the ref caused the hit to be worse than it needed to be (puck got tangled up in the ref's skates).

Sorry to hear that Dash. The NHL is probably the worst professional league at handling bad officiating. Actually the NBA is worse, but I really don't consider that league to be a sport anymore. Was it the Burrows/Auger incident where the NHL launched an "investigation" that lasted a whole 10 hours or am I thinking of something else? Regardless the officiating sucks and it stings a lot when your team is on the short end especially when the league stands behind biased officiating from guys Auger rather than trying to do something about it.

upshot of it was Auger didn't referee any canuck games for a year.
though Auger was never publicly admonished, or found to be at fault in any way. of course.
