I think we all know people who have a piano and can, at best, only play Chopsticks.

The gift of this gif (hard g: piss off, haters. Yes, that includes my son) is all I ever need for today. Although if there is one to correct idiots who write “lead” when they mean “led,” I would combust with joy.

The ghost of Bill Veeck wants to offer this kid a contract.

Wild Toikey Surprise.

Or, conversely, he could play in a decent city with a great rink and a fabulous hockey tradition and history and be paid decent money and not give a shit about what “the people” care about.

Disney did, however, bring them into my living room and have hem jump off the couch.

Ref just keeps tab of the extra time and tacks it on at the end. In a perfect world.

I see what you’re saying, but we know where the money is. Both with people and with television.

It’s one of the finest river valleys/parklands I’ve ever been to, and there’s an area down below and just west of his house that’s an off leash park I take my dog to when we visit family in town. The goddamn place sticks out like a ridiculous sore thumb.

To be even more fair, a lot of Edmonton’s brutalist architorture has been disappeared over the years. Also, it ain’t nothing like Salt Lake City (I also lived in Utah for a short spell), where the joke name for the LDS headquarters was the Bulgarian Secret Police.

I apparently was a couple years behind this guy in high school, but I’ll be damned if I can remember him, and he’s not in my yearbook. I have a couple friends from that same year, and I think I will contact them and ask if they remember him.

He cried when Tyson was drafted, too. Frankly, the popcorn is the only thing keeping enough salt in his body. https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nhl-puck-daddy/nhl-draft-pick-s-sobbing-grandpa-will-melt-your-heart—video-141626468.html

I do not disagree, although AT&T is right at the cutoff, 80,000.

All the jokey shit aside, it’ll be interesting to dig into the meat of this. Like South Korea/Japan, which took two spots away from Asia, this would take three from CONCACAF. But by 2026 there’s a good chance we’ll be at that ridiculous 48 team World Cup, which means after the three are gone there would still be 3.5…

But the article above also says this: “Throughout history, pathogens have wiped out scores of humans.”

I’ll buy that.

I’m not sure when Barber started training, but his dad was a vaulter for Canada in the 1983 world championships, so there’s a good chance he got an early start as well.

Think you can slither in with the best pun of the day, do you?

Yeah, it looks like maybe a cover for controlling the sprinklers or something. I imagine the clubs with more money know how to hide those things away.
