It had to be a Canadian mod to fix it, of course. Thanks, Dash.
I've written and deleted three posts about the American coming in 2nd, can't quite nail down the proper jokey nuance.

/ie. they all come off sounding dick-ish



anyway, that was a god game, huh?

5 years ago yesterday, i was in hospital watching the game out of the corner of my eye with er nurses (way too many of them were men) after my dad had a TIA

Went to see him yesterday and he asked if i could help him build a new fence :)

I still remember watching that game and thinking, "Crosby hasn't done shit all game" and then, as the puck was being fought over in our corner, I was overwhelmed by a horrible feeling of dread- "Oh my God, no - please don't let it be Crosby. If Canada must win, just don't let it be Crosby."

2 seconds later...

What is this salty discharge coming out of my eyes....

i feel yeah. A group of people i was with was gonna go to a bar we always go to but it was full. We went to one of the guys places and watched it there. I lived near by so i decided to walk home. Every 2nd Car i passed walking honked their horns.

One of the most prouder moments of my life

I like Bill Cosby better than Sid Crosby when I think of that moment.

yeah, he had been pretty underwhelming for the tournament up until then
i mean, a point-per-game is nothing to sneeze at, but even Dany All-Star Heatley go that

the other memorable moment of the tourney
(yes, it was a save)

There is a chain of bargain/closeout stores here called "Ollie's Bargain Outlet". They get the stuff that no one else wants, what other stores couldn't sell. Right this very minute, there are McFarlane figures of Sid in his Team Canada get up at just *that* moment after he scored.

They are currently on clearance. In a store that buys junk from other stores to sell cheap. Like 3 bucks each or something.

It small consolation, but it's something.

/Fucking Crosby

I was at a friends house listening to the new Nickleback record.
