In shocking news, the Leafs lost another shootout. Of all the games not to play Suglobov... To make things worse, I had to watch our loss from a Bowlerama with a Habs fan amongst the members of Raging Storm. Habs fans are the most irritating and annoying creatures on the

I just submitted a tune for SLS16 consideration. I submitted "Red Flag" from Billy Talent. Admittedly, I'm a little late on this one. It took a while to hit me, but now I see the light. For a band with only a couple of albums under their belt, they've done

Where the hell did that come from? I saw glimpses of yesterday's effort in the preseason, but I sure wasn't betting on seeing it last night. That was a helluva lot of fun, wasn't it? Kyle Wellwood had a career-high four assists for the Maple Leafs as we successfully ruined

Don't even pretend you're surprised by this lacklustre effort in the season opener. The Sens owned us last year, except for the third last game of the season when we salvaged a win. We've been outscored 44-20 in losing eight of our last nine games against Ottawa. Borje Salming looked

R. W. Apple was 71. He was the colorful New York Times correspondent who charted the fall of Richard Nixon and covered wars from Vietnam to the Persian Gulf while having a parallel career as a food and travel writer.
I'm blaming MySpace. When MySpace exploded, everyone and their dog created their own web page. If you've ever been to a MySpace page, it's damn ugly, and there are widgets everywhere. There are slideshows, Flash games, maps, video, audio and more bling than you can shake a stick at. The

When Grand River Hospital in Kitchener-Waterloo shut down its emergency ward, Health Minister George Smitherman sent in a team of troubleshooters from St. Joseph's Health Centre.
