This was a much closer game than the score would indicate. We seemed to be sitting back on a 3-0 lead early in the second period when the USA got within one. It wasn't a shutout, but it was an entertaining game and a solid win. We've got the upstart

Gerald Ford was 93. He was the 38th president of the United States of America.
Remarkably, Canada has now won 13 games in a row in this tournament. Even sweeter, this is our third shutout in a row going back to the back-to-back shutouts Justin Pogge had to win gold last year. Carey Price was solid between the pipes this afternoon, but the team in
Steve and I have been exchanging the same gift for years, but this Christmas we reached a new level of indolence. I bought him The Simpsons Season Nine on DVD and he bought me the same thing, only I bought the DVD with the plastic Maggie cover and he bought
My appreciation for James Brown comes directly from Public Enemy. Sure, I dig a James Brown song or two, I own The CD of JB (Sex Machine & Other Soul Classics), but I prefer my JB sampled by PE. I mentioned yesterday the dominance of James Brown samples in the
It's been one year since Jane Creba was shot and killed last Boxing Day. It was outside the Footlocker near Yonge and Dundas and her death shook this city up. It certainly shook up visitors to this site. At the time I wasn't allowing comments on entries, but I did

James Brown was 73. He was the dynamic, pompadoured "Godfather of Soul," whose rasping vocals and revolutionary rhythms made him a founder of rap, funk and disco.
It all goes down tonight. Santa will come with gifts for good little boys and girls who will wake up tomorrow morning full of excitement. This has been a particularly fun build up with James a total believer in the magic of Christmas and Michelle gaining a slight understanding of
Here's our second last Humble and Fred holiday promo of the season. On a Christmas Eve afternoon, what would be better than thinking about Santa kissing Humble and Fred? By the way, the 17th Annual Humble and Fred Christmas Show podcast continues... Other promo clips in this seasonal series: Deck
"And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow, stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags. And he puzzled and puzzled 'till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of
That was an entertaining third period, wasn't it? Mats Sundin scored on a penalty shot and then 14 seconds later and I could taste the comeback. I'm still shocked we couldn't come up with a third. The less said about the first two periods, the better. If you remove those
I want to wish each and every one of you a very happy Festivus. For those who don't know what Festivus is, there are three easy to follow steps: "Get the pole out of the crawl space". Or go out and buy one. Remember, it should be aluminium, due to
While the Leafs were coughing up another one, the Raps were clawing out a win in Portland. With a 12-15 record, the Raptors now lead the Atlantic Division. We last time led the division was November 25, 2003. It's fair to say the Raptors didn't play up to this standard
We lost our second in a row and Mike Peca with a serious knee injury. I knew we should have held on to some of those nine we scored Saturday night. As we turn our attention to the World Junior team, expect Finnish goalie Tukka Rask to shine brightest. Remember,

I was just digging through the vault when I came across a picture that was taken thirty years ago today. This is my little brother Ryan. Happy 30th Ry!
A while back I stopped linking to articles in The Toronto Star to protest their horrible URI structure. Fellow bloggers know exactly what I'm talking about. Part of their newly unveiled redesign is a decent URI structure. It's about time! My protest is over. I actually came within a whisker
I wrote about a CFNY for grownups following a comment from Doug, but he was quick to remind me that we're talking about two different CFNYs. Last week Humble Howard made a comment about three different groups of CFNY / Edge102 listeners that can be grouped by morning shows. This concept

For the past couple of days I've been having issues with my Rogers Internet connection. You might know what I'm talking about because I hear it's effecting the entire GTA. Some domains are not available, others are sporadically available, it's a crapshoot. Calling Rogers means having to talk to that
