Freak By Night

"totally" out of control? I don't think so mama. Four cops could have subdued the guy without a taser. Hell I could have subdued him on my own.

Yes.

Good question Whitey. Going by what I've read in the papers and heard on the radio, Gerber's commitment to practice has been second to none. Getting a few wins under his belt early in the season helped his confidence quite a bit too. Then there's what the sports writers call "intangibles", whatever that means!

This whole incident raises a good point: If the cops are going to taser me, please put down the video camera and come help me!

That picture is hilarious Roller! Looking forward this coming Monday night's Sens vs. Habs game. They're going to be retiring Larry Robinson's #19 in a pre-game ceremony.

Just wondering if anyone has heard if there will be an investigation into this incident, or if any of these cops will be charged. All I've heard is that Stephane Dion is calling for the RCMP to review taser use. As an aside, I remember a bit of an uproar in the late 90s when tasers were being marketed to police forces. The company's demonstration video showed cops taking down a criminal with a taser. Some people cried racism because the actor playing the criminal in the video was a black man.

Was it Nexus or Second Sun?

I'm 'bout to bust some shots off. I'm 'bout to dust some cops off. - Ice T

That's right eh! The 3rd Thursday in November is the day. I'll be picking some up tomorrow.

Why would it be a problem to highlight a Canadian boxer in a title match? Sure, boxing is about money and so is hockey ... what's the diff? Maybe there are the "right" number of black hockey players on the Leafs that year in Smythe's mind?

TimmyB is a true hero. All the best to him and his family.

Does McCabe even play for the Leafs? It's hard to tell sometimes.

In 2047, people will find the clothing we wear now to be just as hilarious as we find the 70's style.

The windows dirty the mattress stinks This ain't no place to be a man Ain't got no future, ain't got no past And I don't think I ever can The floor is filthy the walls are thin The wind is howling in my face The rats are peeling, I'm losing ground Can't seem to join the human race. Yeah, I'm living in a hell hole Don't want to stay in this hell hole Don't want to die in this hell hole Girl, get me out of this hell hole. I rode the jetstream, I hit the top I'm eating steak and lobster tails The sauna's drafty, the pools too hot The kitchen stinks of boiling snails. The taxman's coming, the butler quit This ain't no way to be a man I'm going back to where I started I'm flashing back into my pan. It's better in a hell hole You know where you stand in a hell hole Folks lend a hand in a hell hole Girl get me back to my hell hole. - Spinal Tap

After Alfie's empty netter, us Sens fans were downright arrogant! I would hazard a guess and say that Habs fans out-numbered Sens fans at this game.

Just got home from the game - the reason the Habs lost? Their fans started that olay chant with 6 minutes left in a one-goal game! That's just asking for trouble.

I'm surprised no one has posted this one yet!

That's hilarious AD. I didn't catch that part.

I was surrounded by Leafs fans at the game last night. Even my friend who came to the game with me was in full Leafs garb. They weren't too happy with their team 5 minutes in that's for sure! Something that probably didn't make it to TV last night was an appearance at the game by Ricky of the Trailer Park Boys! He was hammered. They had him announce some useful information - upcoming concerts by Mellencamp and Blue Rodeo.

The writer of that article hasn't done his homework. There are already 11 Stanley Cup banners at Ottawa's place-your-corporate-name-here rink.

Hey I was at that Auburn Hills Holiday Inn that night! Enjoyed the all-night pool and hot tub. A great time. Yeah I can add to this thread as a seasoned traveller. Things I like in hotels are: - late check-out - loyalty program - all night restaurant or room service - free internet - indoor and outdoor pool!

I don't know if the new Eagles album is going to make anyone's list around here. Check out the review from The Globe & Mail. Hilarious! "With a double-disc of limpid country rock, airbrushed harmonies and rehashed snoozers, the Eagles compete with The Very Best of Mick Jagger for the year's most unnecessary album. For its first work of new material since 1979's The Long Run, the feathery quartet strains for legitimacy with the pretty, eco-friendly No More Walks in the Woods and a 10-minute war-attacking title track. The protest is late; the album is unprovoked and often hilariously poor. There are sporadic fine moments (the romantic cover I Love to Watch a Woman Dance), but nothing to indicate that a third greatest-hits compilation will ever be required."

The "Battle of Ontario" (geez I hate that expression) resumes tonight! Let the trash talking begin. I'll be there tonight - should be a fun game.

Fines for traffic violations are significantly higher in la belle province. But, smokes and beer are cheaper. So it all balances out!

Stick it to the man. Don't pay the fine and move to a different country.
