Also, I am reminded, the Billy Van Singers sang (with others) this little ditty.

That and it gave young kids an idea of what drugs felt like.

30 decades! Care to share your secret, or does it just involve not having your head chopped off with a sword?

I’m in my 50s and I am so goddamned worked up over this. That show was a big part of my childhood.

Oskee wee wee!

My son texted me this morning to tell me all about the songs dropping and what they were like and about. Then he said, “What a time to be alive.”

In keeping with the name, players will now be paid less than agreed upon every time they lose. And often when they win, too, unless they can win bigly.

A good friend is a Millwall fan, and on Saturday mornings can be found in front of his computer, several cans of beer already dispensed with, drunkenly singing supporter’s songs. So out of the greys with you!

I’m with you. A quarter century since a Canadian team won.

Three out of the four remaining teams have never won the Cup. The Caps made it to the finals once, and got swept. For a (mostly) neutral observer, this makes for a much more interesting setup.

Ah, memories. “[H]e’s not Big Country anymore, he’s Big Continent.”

The province that’s easy to draw but hard to spell.

After my wife’s dad died my mother-in-law came to stay with us for a few weeks, and this show became a ritual for us, part of the healing for both women. I’m pleased to see a new season is coming, and by the looks of it premiering shortly before she comes for her next visit.

So these tickets aren’t good anymore?

So... you’re not quoting me. That whole bit about the Jets was someone else. But you keep being you.

This is the sort of logic that would get you a job at TSN or Sportsnet. But I refuse to listen to logic.

I like the cut of your jib. I don’t play the sport, care little about it, and yet can’t turn away from it when it’s on TV.

Ha! Next door now, but yeah, my poison pill of choice is the Toilers.

But what about the Vancouver Grizzlies?

Who said I cheer for non-Canadian teams?
