  1. Great voice, will never forget "Forfar FIVE East Fife four..."
  2. Blackpool peg boro back to 2-2. Crazy game for us today, the kids are singing ricky lambert, southampton's goal machine, very cute as they have french accents...
  3. Hockey is a very simple sport. Icing - you are not allowed to send the puck the length of the ice, if it is shot from behind the center (red) line and is touched by an opposing player behind the goal line then play will be started right back in the defensive zone. An exception is when a team is on the penalty kill (have a man serving a penalty). Offside - the puck must enter the offensive zone (blue line) ahead of any attacking players (skaters), if the puck is moved out of the offensive zone and there are attacking players still in there, they must leave the zone before the puck can be taken/passed back into the zone. Fighting is allowed and encouraged. Penalties are called for various things, tripping, slashing (not ****ing, hitting someone with a stick), cross checking (knocking someone over by pushing them with a stick), high stick in the face, puck over the glass (not allowed to just clear the puck over the glass to ease the pressure), kneeing, slew footing (tripping with a skate), interference. Most penalties last 2 minutes, whereby the infracting player must sit out (in the "box") the duration leaving his team "short-handed". Any goals scored during this time for the team with the extra player are called "power play goals", if the team with fewer players scores (it happens) it is called a shorthanded goal. Have a great time, Leafs vs Bruins is a divisional game and they are both "original 6" teams so it will be pretty intense. I am jealous, I will have to get out to an Ottawa game soon.
  4. what about boxing day?
  5. Unfortunately baseball is done for the year, and basketball locked out. Maple Leafs would be pricey. As Hammie says above CN tower etc is good. If you like wine, Niagara region is amazing and there are ice wines etc. that might be new to you. Have a great time. Just an FYI though, Toronto isn't a city that is representative of Canada as a whole, were a lot more laid back and friendly than you'll find in hogtown...
  6. I dunno, hefty is pretty dreamy...
  7. That's quite the talent you have for running are/were you part of a running club. I did an 8km race in just under 36 minutes yesterday, came 11th but there always those club runners who finish miles ahead of the mid-packers like me. It's amazing to see.

  19. It appears that bacteria from all the sh1t that spews out of your mouth has been able to infect you by entering the small wounds in your toes after you cut your nails...
