Thievery

Funniest pic I've seen in a week or so...

 

Stolen from the inimitable Puck Daddy blog, specifically: What We Learned: Olympic roundup; whose game is it again?  And from the linked post, this:
NHL.com headline: "Crosby still optimistic about Canada's chances." I dunno though. Can't see how his team can stop the Lamoureux twins.
Don't go if you're Canadian and easily offended.  This is some world-class snark.

    Dude! According to your weather widget, it's FREAKIN' cold where you are!

    Still alive here. Hope you're making time to smoke a good cigar now and then.

  9. Doc: Yeah, it's been a hard winter in these parts. But it hasn't affected our beer and cigar consumption! ;-)

    BR: The dude in the USA shirt has big brass ones, don't he?

    KC: All in good fun, M'Dear. ;-)

    OI: Thanks, Bud!

    Jay: I thought about posting the YouTube vid of that Ovie hit but never got around to it. Magnificent, that was... and Jagar calmly got up and continued skating while Russia scored...

    RLM: Thanks for tossing that Disqus thing. It did sucketh.

  10. That "What We Learned" article is, well, I'll call it the best (sports related) thing I have read in a long time. If I were Canadian and read that, I would be absolutely seething.

    I'm not getting too comfortable over here yet. As they say in the business: There's still a lot of hockey yet to be played.

  11. While I enjoyed the victory, I wouldn't bet against Canada in a rematch...

  12. Andy: You're right about a lot o' hockey left. But as I've noted elsewhere, we have a much easier time of it going forward than our friends in The Great White Up. I don't think they'll make it by the Russians.

    Jim: I would. Just sayin'.

Just be polite... that's all I ask.
