The Cup Headed Back to Toronto This Year!

[wheatonFJR]

Comedian.

Don't cross me, Wheatman. You'll be at my mercy in a few weeks.

What? You gonna scare me with your yellow helmet? I don't think so.

If you are embarassed to hail from Saskatchewan...not MY problem.

I'll still buy you that beer though.

Canadiens up 2 - 0 on the "hapless" Bruins.

(Hey, Wheaton. Is that an alligator ...or a saddle?)

 

[beemerdons]

Saw it in a dream, so I figure it's about to happen.

Go, Canadiens.

I thought you were from Saskatchewan??

(And you know barb is all up close to her screen, "cheek-to-cheek" with that image of Beemerdon's stunt-double.)

What stunt-double, Brother Mick? Last week I mailed barb an 8 by 10 autographed copy of that photo!

Just want you to know I cheer for two teams, Red Wings and anybody playing the Leafs.

Poor Leafs.

Someday.

We're just waiting for the 0 and 3, so the B's can make an earthshaking comeback like the Sox.

Now I understand why many of our forum members find you a PITA

There is no one in the Toronto phone book with my surname.

I consider this to be A GOOD THING!!!

Oh really!? Boston can only generate luck like that once every century

 

[FJRBluesman]

Ducks are struggling, not good. :angry: :huh:

Beemerdons, I think we saw you at the Honda Center. :dribble:

Canadian fans suck almost as bad as Yankee fans. Both cities are the bane of Boston sports history.

Go Bruins! Remember Orr, Esposito, Pie MacKenzie, et al.

'Le Habitants' have a much storied history. Remember Lafleur, Robinson, Dryden, Boom Boom Geoffrion, JC Tremblay, the Rocket, the Pocket Rocket, Cournoyer, Toe Blake, Scottie Bowman, the list is endless. I know that everytime a Boston fan thinks of Ken Dryden they cry in their already watered down beer.

Having said that I'm acually a Sabres fan from the 'French Connection' era. Then again, I'm a loser that can't even change a throttle tube without making it an adventure.

Yes they do (as do the Yankees). That is just another part of why we hate them so much!!

Hey, hey!! Now you've stepped over the line. :nono: You can make light of our B's and our C's. We'll even let you make jest of the Sox, especially with the opening string they've had this season. But don't be making fun of our beer. The New England area has a storied brewing tradition, including in modern times with Boston Beer Co. (Sam Adams), Harpoon, Smuttynose, Allagash and Redhook. We only buy Canadian beer around here when we need a cheap light beer for after mowing the lawn!

Oh PLEASE!!! Sam Adams Cranberry Ale. What's that all about?

I believe it was Denis Leary that said it was something to treat yeast infections.

Ride up here and I'll treat you to some Sleman's Honey Brown or Porter.

If you can behave yourself and are especially good we will ride ride over to the Church Key Microbrewery and have a growler of Northumberland Pale Ale. :fan_1:

I water my lawn with Coors Light.

Look at what you have made me do. I'm thirsty now :drinks:

Yeah, their Cranberry Lambic is an oddly flavored beer. But so are the Belgian Lambics that was brewed to emulate. I'm not a huge fan of Lambics, especially those with fruit in them I also don't care much for their Cherry Wheat, but unfortunately a lot of people (women who apparently don't like the taste of beer) buy the stuff. Contrast that with the Imperial series of beers that Sam makes. A number of them are quite good.

I'm sure both of those are good craft brews.

I wouldn't even use it for that. IMO, BMC is vile swill. But Bud is from St Louis, Miller Milwaukee, and Coors from Golden, CO. Thankfully, not New England. See, just like you have the (deserved or otherwise) stereotype that all Americans drink that shitty yellow piss-water, we US-ians have the stereo-type that you Canucks are drinking Molson, Labatts and Moosehead. While those are a half notch above BMC they still aren't very good, nowhere near any of the stuff from the craft breweries.

Look at what you have made me do. I'm thirsty now :drinks:

I'm always thirsty!

Seriously, though: Next time you are passing through Portland, ME, stop in at the Allagash Brewery and score a bottle or two of their Curieux. It is their Belgian style Tripple that has been barrel aged in Bourbon barrels for two months.

Perhaps if the Habs actually do win the cup I'll bring one along to CFR for you? I'd make this a wager and say that you could return the favor if the Bruins won, but there are only two chances that would ever happen: slim and none.

 

[Old Michael]

Ha. You "recreational" drinkers make me chuckle.

 

[RaYzerman19]

Beer sampling, a good sport at playoff time!!

That old question comes up at times like these..... why do the Leafs drink their champagne from saucers? 'Cuz the cups are all in Montreal (well, 24 of them at last count).

More hockey stories.........

Mario Lemieux, Steve Yzerman and Wayne Gretzky are standing before God at the throne of Heaven.

God looks at them and says, "Before granting you a place at my side, I must first ask you what you believe in."

Addressing Lemieux first he asks, "What do you believe?"

Mario looks God in the eye and states passionately, "I believe Hockey to be the food of life. Nothing else brings such unbridled joy to so many people, from Moscow to the bright lights of New York. I have devoted my life to bringing such joy to people who watch us and support their team."

God looks up and offers Mario the seat to his left.

He then turns to Steve Yzerman, "And you, Steve, what do you believe?"

Stevie Y stands tall and proud, "I believe courage, honour and passion are the fundamentals to life, and I've spent my whole playing career providing a living embodiment of these traits."

God, moved by the passion of the speech offers Yzerman the seat to his right.

Finally, he turns to Wayne Gretzky, "And you, Wayne, what do you believe?"

I believe," says Gretzky, "You're sitting in my seat."

-----------------------------------------------------

Patrick Roy, after living a full life, died. When he got to heaven, God was showing him around. They came to a modest little house with a faded Colorado Avalanche flag in the window.

"This house is yours for eternity, Pat," said God. "This is very special; not everyone gets a house up here."

Patrick felt special, indeed, and walked up to his house. On his way up the porch, he noticed another house just around the corner. It was a big 3-story mansion with a bright Red and White sidewalk, a 50 ft. tall flagpole flying an enormous Detroit Red Wings flag, and in every window a Red Wings logo.

In the front yard was a sign that said, "Welcome to Hockeytown."

Patrick looked at God and said "God, I'm not trying to be ungrateful, but I have a question. I won three Stanley Cups, more awards than I can remember and am the most successful goalie in NHL history."

God said "So what do you want to know, Pat?"

"Well, why does Steve Yzerman get a better house than me?"

God chuckled and said "Patrick, that's not Stevie's house, .......it's mine."

GO WINGS!!!!!!!

When I get out there in a few weeks, I'll let you touch it...you can decide for yourself.

Oh, I knew that. I just was wondering whether OM knew.

Actually thanks Fred...I'm sure your answer is better than whatever Old Michael will cook up.
