  1. Wow MJL I dont know you but you will be in my thoughts and prayers my friend. Good luck tommorow. Good Karma sent your way..
  2. I’m watching some TV having to do with the War and Remembrance Day tomorrow. Nice to think that the people (mostly) still care enough to have the ceremonies in honour of the Vets and all those who serve their country. During the war not just those who served in uniform, but the factories that worked around the clock and the workers who put in 60 hours and more a week. It wasn’t an easy time. And people complain about high taxes today – wages were controlled and there were two rates of income tax. Those making better than average wages – paid an extra tax that went into a “savings” account – this money wasn’t returned until after the war. Anyway – I think it’s nice that the kids have to go to school – otherwise they probably wouldn’t know much about the wars of the past. There are those who don’t care. Some outfit which is opposed to wars and fighting – have been trying to get people to buy and wear white poppies. What an insult to the Veterans and the traditional red poppies. War is hell as anyone who ever had to fight in battle – but the pacifists are unrealistic. If you’re familiar with Kenny Rogers’ song “The Coward of the County” – at the end the “coward” says “Sometimes a man just has to fight.” Didn’t intend to preach – I’m just talking. Nedless to say our family will remember. Our youngest son is in year 3 of the Navy Cadets and will be there for the ceremony.We are so prod of him as he plans to join the Navy when he is out of Highscool.
  3. Peddie says he is going to retire. Just not any time soon...lol More mixed messages. souece RSN and the fan 590
  4. Here we go!lol But seriously that must have sucked big time.
  5. Well what better place to build? This is getting worse by the day. Let the kid learn with the big boys.I tought he did awesome in the preseason then wilson cut is ice time by 11 minutes so he could burry im in the minors.Wilson was Quoted as saying he (kadri) had a bad additude, come on Really? Lets hope Burke was able to get some trade chatter going at the GM's meeting yesterday.I honestly think Wilson has lost the team.Burke needs to seriously look into That too.Let the haters hate I suppose. Just for the record ill never jump off the wagon, there is way to much beer on it for me to leave
  6. This is taken from mapleleafs.com, but I couldnt have said it any better so I stole it...lol Its in regards to Kadri, we need him NOW! Wilson is a hater and a hack.! How many leaf forwards are adept two-way players? Is Bozak? Brent? MacArthur, Kessel? Versteeg was brought in because he was supposed to be responsible at both ends, he has 2 goals and is a -4. point being you can't solely place the deficiencies or success of team defense on one guy. Kadri may not be the best defensively but who is brave enough to argue he is not one of our top 3 forwards offensively? He should be called up his skill is desperately needed here. Team defense is just that team defense, if he is having problems picking up the philosophy I can't think of a better season to help him learn it. We have probably the most expensive back end roster, if and when he makes a mistake we should have enough horses to help cover up those mistakes. If a roster that has spent 27M on defenders and goalies can't help mask the mistakes of a rookie, then we have a completely different set of problems here...
  7. I would have to agree on the dry sponge too. Good luck Ryan..No matter what, its going to be a tough go may need a 2nd 6 pack...lol
  8. Not to sure if this is posted in the right place or not. Im looking to fish with another OFNR tonight.I went lastnight and got skunked. also froze my you know what off...lol Im thinking some company would make it a tad more enjoyable...Let me know ur thoughts if interested.Contact me VIA PM..
