Okay, I just saw this because I was browsing the most viewed clips on YouTube. And I went to look up the score to find that TO did end up winning the game. But still, this is hilarious. Best part? It's a shorthanded goal to boot!
Reddit has lots of good articles about today's “Super Tuesday” primaries in the United States. Do a search for your favourite candidate to narrow it down. This one's interesting – apparently John McCain, the Republican frontrunner, was born in the Panama Canal Zone, so is not actually eligible to be President (at least he wouldn't […]
Flames 9, Lightning 6 – Game NotesI didn't see the game tonight (getting Santa pictures at the mall in Weyburn is apparently more important ) but I saw the highlights and wow.

For instance, last […]
I don't hate the shootout as much as some people do. I actually have a much bigger problem with a scoring system that allows for some games to be worth 3 points and others 2 (if I was in charge, a win is 2 points, a loss is 0 points no matter when it happens, […]
