It’d be pretty easy to leave some snarky atheist cartoon since it’s Good Friday. But instead, I’ll just leave this here… (Man, do I want to try this sport!)
Continuing with the Wrestlemania XXX theme I started yesterday, here’s a really cool video package about the rise of the underdog, Daniel Bryan, from wrestling in high school gyms and armouries to winning the WWE World Title at the 30th Anniversary Wrestlemania card in front of 80,000 screaming fans… “Monster” – Imagine Dragons
Here are some random thoughts on the 30th anniversary of the biggest wrestling pay-per-view of all-time… – *loved* the opening HHH vs. Daniel Bryan match and its placement on the card too after some people speculated that it would be right before the main event Triple Threat match which would’ve been really dumb in my […]

Saskatchewan’s Mark McMorris brought home Canada’s first Olympic medal, a bronze in the slope style competition.
