  1. I love that you added the berkley swimbaits! I love those things!

     

    Looks good Simon! Perfect timing to leave on this cold stretch!

     

    Enjoy your time with the family my friend and I hope you land some great memories!

     

    And judging off past food porn you have posted, Id say everyone is in for some fantastic eats!

     

    Travel safe brotha!!!

  2. How's this??

    "Hey you, lurker, yeah I'm talking to you. Start contributing or bugger off! We've got the Russians (not the two guys from Siberia, they ok) logging your IP addresses. Plus we can now track you to any spot previously photographed on this sight. We can't get through a political thread without fighting but we're like the Sheldon Cooper of fishing now!" :rofl2:

    ???

  3. You now my favorite shotefishing spot at the rapids I post about 85% of my reports on here?

     

    Turns out two guys from siberia read about it on here and approached me as manitoubass???

     

    Really nice guys, good anglers and a pleasure to meet.

     

    And in siberia, I learned, they cook pike whole, and any fish filleted is done by the wife

  4. Im lifelong.

     

    Been a gan since I was introduced to hockey by my dad and grandpa.

     

    Longstanding tradition to watch the sat. Night games with gramps.

     

    There are other teams I enjoy, always liked chicago and detroit.

     

    But not in the same manner as the leafs

     

    When we had our first ultrasound and found out our first born was going to be a boy, I had a leafs jersey and a raptors jersey ready for him the same day!!!

  5. I think it's 3 reasons.

    1) There's the resentment by the ex-fans, like Matt, who act like they got their heart broken because the Leafs owed them something and cheated them out of their Stanley Cup. And because Leafs didn't win them a Stanley Cup they're going to go adorn another team with their golden but fragile admiration. And it's not enough to just move on...no...they're also going to play the part of the lovesick victim that got cheated on and hate the Leafs forever. Making sure that they take shots at ever opportunity because their fragile little hearts never really ever mended over the tragedy of their loss. When the Leafs do well and begin to have success, well, this just fires up the resentment even more. There's nothing like living good to get back at your enemies! And when Toronto finally gets their act together and pulls off the big win, a bunch of people from this group will have sheepishly already slid back into the fold with the diehards and mumble a few excuses about how their other long lost team let them down and they've been a Leaf fan at heart FOREVER. Pathetic bunch really. I'm not sure what's worse, the behaviour after switching teams or being so insecure that you can only show support for a team that is winning.

    2) The fans of teams that are doing well HATE the attention the Leafs get. They are the hands down, undisputed heavy-weight champions of the sportscaster world and when Carolina wins and nobody gives a fat rats ass, it ticks off the fans that want their moment in the sun. Too bad I say...you chose to cheer for a team that shows up in shorts and plays for the same amount of fans as the OHL teams get, live with it. The Leafs rule the hockey market and can do it from LAST place. Think about that!

    3) Good old-fashioned rivalries! This is the ONLY good reason there is and if Montreal fans hate Toronto because of the long history behind the teams... GOOD! Because I know the day is coming we're going to get some long awaited revenge and beat their butts, quiet their stupid la la goodbye song, and win the cup! And most importantly, if I'm still alive, I'll still be a Leaf fan.

    Couldnt agree more and this is EXACTLY why people hate the Leafs!

     

    Very well put!!!

  6. hei I'm a grand and when they all come over there are 8. I KNOW.

    noisy little buggers. My daughter lives in Innsifil and has been with us for most of the winter because of the drive?

    Lol. Nah mah mom has rheumatoid arthritis. So last summer I convinced he to quit work for health reason and come live with us free of charge of course! Until this weekend that is???

  7. Rick, our first real storm I left Markham at 3:30 pm go to Woodbridge (28 km) got home at 8:45. ( 5.25 hrs)

    You did well in 6 hours.

    Hope your drive back is better.

     

    last month I took my wife to St Mikes, the appointment was booked by her dr. Get there, 1 hour to register and find his office and only to be told you are NOT booked in!

    I told them how my drive was at 9 am and day off work and wasn't coming back, she got looked at and then getting out of the parking lot cost $22 for for 3 hours.

    Geez! Thats horrible bud!
