I don’t know, you have a lot of Canadians that measure their value as a Canadian in terms of how much hockey and Tim Hortons they consume. It’s pretty crazy that they’d tell a hockey team to go pound sand.

They just had Garth freaking Brooks there for seven nights in a row! What more could your average Calgarian want??

San Diego did okay with their Spanos dealings.

So this new arena that can host the Flames and contain the large sets of major concerts/events, it’ll probably bring in a tonne of revenue and pay for itself, right? Bring in a healthy return for the private investors who fund it?  

I believe that you have a beautiful house and the problem may lie with the asshole within.

This is a new one. Six-team coverage? Where I live, Sportsnet and TSN only cover the Leafs.

Not just millions, over a fucking billion dollars.

Whelp.

The 1.8 billion price tag included a soccer pitch as well as several other facilities, AND environmental clean up of contaminated land right next to a major river (creosote).

The champion of that great joke of a plan (smallest in any league, $70 mil federal $$, etc, historical designation on roof, public park, no parking or transportation plan, etc) just stepped down because of the 5th, count’em, 5th accusation of touchy touchy with a minor, and not the coal kind. This will die a slow…

As an American I appreciate your sentiment being put in to pictures I can understand.

They can go and take the Leafs, Canadiens, Senators, Canucks, and Oilers with them. That way maybe we could get some balanced hockey coverage here in Canada instead of the 6 team coverage we usually have to suffer through. I didnt include the Jets since even Canadians ignore them.

Bettman: Calgary residents should make their voices heard about financing a new arena.

How feasible is it that they just won’t get their arena? Canada seems much more comfortable than the US when it comes to telling teams to fuck off.

I’m gonna be so salty when time travel is finally invented and I can’t go anywhere.

Nice post. The problem with it is that the song was written during the War of 1812, not the Revolutionary War as you stated. A war which the fledgling USA started by invading Upper Canada.

Were it not for the more than one million Americans who fought and DIED from enemy rockets and bombs for YOUR freedom that is unlike and better than any other “free” nation in the world, you would not be allowed to spew your ignorance so generously.

it appears more that the issue is them fighting with the enemy of the newly forming America, not what color they are. They would find more freedom in the new America than they would ever have had in Britain, so it is understandable that those fighting against Britain would be upset. Not being there, neither you or I…

Soooo many

So. Many. Salty. White. Tears. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
