    NHL Thread: January

    Your support is about nine weeks late. Ottawa's back on the ice tonight against the Caps, who they've struggled with this year (1-2 is struggling by Senator standards), but have taken four of the last five from Washington at the Corel Centre. Mike Fisher is back, and Gerber will get the nod in net.

    Cambodian woman found after missing for 18 years

    But hasn't Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes and to a greater extent 1987's Walk Like A Man shown us that you can't put a tux on a wildchild and expect them to sip tea and talk about Paris Hilton? You just won the thread for referring to Walk Like A Man.

    He is a politician, after all. I'd love to see what the Toronto Sun will stir up this morning. "Liberal cabinet member dupes lousy hockey team" will likely be screamed on the front page.

    HDTV

    I guess I just didn't realize that old men walking and slowly hitting tiny balls into tiny holes was the kind of action-packed programming the HD market had been waiting for. My mistake. Trust me, even though you're clearly not a golf fan - Watch the Masters in HD in April on CBS. Most beautiful thing you'll ever see. Also, broads think Tiger's hot. Tiger in HD = new demographic reached. Edit: Dammit. Beat to it by about ten seconds.

    What did you eat today?

    I'm two weeks late asking you this....what in the blue fuck is a vanilla kefir?

    HDTV

    It's not related to HD in any way yet (unless Marvin or Mole knows something I don't)....ever catch that commercial for the Golf Channel Cinema's debut last winter? Vince Cellini did voice-overs, and when he got to "cinema", they kept looping over Judge Smails "su-su-su-sucks?" Delightful.

    Admit It...

    Since I think the theme here is lesser-known wrestlers, or those who won't necessarily be remembered: Flash Funk Taka Michinoku Too Much (Not Too Cool) The Mountie The Quebecers The Beverley Brothers

    PGA Tour

    Season starts Thursday with the new FedEx Cup. Discuss, and add if you like, to my four questions for the year: Biggest mark made: Assuming Phil Mickelson is over his second half meltdown (and I think he will be), he's my answer. If that doesn't count as is he's already very established, I think Adam Scott will regularly be mentioned among the top five by the end of the year. Biggest drop-off: Ben Curtis isn't this good. Biggest unanswered question: Besides the obvious FedEx Cup system, I'm intrigued as to what will happen to the First Tee program, or if something similar will start up after the US gets smoked by the Internationals at the President's Cup, led by a resurging Mike Weir. Two cents: I'm very interested to see what kind of scores are posted to win the Tour Championship, with the late summer heat in Atlanta and players potentially playing six weeks straight. I've no problem with the FedEx Cup, but hope winning it won't overshadow winning a major.

    Most Professional

    Who gave without taking the most? A combination of youtube clips featuring McMahon's arrogance, Austin leaving, and Foley/Dreamer promos got me thinking on this: Flair? Foley? Dreamer? Who gave the most to the business and asked for the least in return?

    Winslow? He was underrated.

    NHL Thread: January

    First win on Saturday since Dec. 16 and the 9-2 Rangers incident. Fuck, December seems awfully long ago doesnt it? I can't say anything tonight, Montreal was absolutely outplayed. No bad calls, no poor play or excuses. Toronto was a better team......Nope, doesn't ease the pain.

    But he's drinking Keystone! Edit: More emphasis needed. But he's drinking Keystone!

    Which wrestlers scared you as a kid?

    It's a good thing I've had fifteen beers by this point to admit this: The Berzerker and the Warlord scared the piss out of me when I was seven. I blame the Warlord's mask. Berzerker I can't explain.

    Wii

    Based on what I've seen on sales on Wii's at my Wal*Mart, probably not March, but April is realistic. Sales are slowing down from the usual 20 minutes to an hour up to one-two days. Multiply that by five or six shipments between now and March, and you're looking at a probably 50-50 chance in March. There is, of course, tax refunds in April, but I'm still of the school of thought that kids play outside during the spring. Cross your fingers in March, or save your money till April, this guy sez.

    NHL Thread: January

    On that note, Pennsylvania's governor said, according to tsn.ca, that a deal with the Pens is "very likely". This coming on the heels of a discussion on the Hotstove on HNIC Saturday that mentioned a possible two-team expansion to "even things out".

    Pictures I Like

    It keeps going and going and going... *appluads. Well done, sir.
  17. My old guitar teacher owes me an apology..... He kinda looks like Super Crazy, though.

    NHL Thread: January

    Remember that road trip you planned in September, in which you claimed we'd take a road trip to Montreal for the Cup Finals? That takes precedence. And by the way, I'm gonna renege (pull a Manley, if you will) on the blowjob clause of that trip. I have bad luck with bets involving oral sex.

    The Youtube Thread

    It was on YouTube for about three hours in the summer when the WWE was taking everything down, but I'd love to see a Flair promo again. I don't even remember the circumstance, but I do remember him saying "I don't care about Lebanon! I don't care about Russia! I just care about the USA, and pro wrestling! WHOOOOOO!"

    Predict-a-card: Wrestlemania 23

    Michaels-Cena makes sense. Michaels could even play the Rocky role that's been discussed a few times of Flair in this thread. Who else is left? No one alive is buying Umaga as a credible challenger. Scrapped after the Rumble. Orton makes sense, but he's dropped the ball a few times now. Edge vs Cena's been done to death. Carlito, Nitro and Kenny aren't ready. Maaaaaaaaaaaybe Flair, but I still think that Michaels has the fan support, mic ability and desire to make this a realistic possibility. From a mark standpoint, it makes worlds of sense with his achievements in the ring, and the Rumble in particular. Plus it sets up the feud between HHH-HBK, and there's no way this won't happen at least once before the end of the year. And this is coming from a guy with a Bret Hart tat on his arm.

    The OAO Raw Thread for 22/01/07

    Can I get a rundown of what happened last night? Fell asleep early for the second week in a row.

    NHL Thread: January

    The league has announced changes won't be made to the schedule next year.
  23. I particularly remember him putting Tazz through the ring. The fact that it wasn't planned, in his home town, was unforgettable. So how was that match originally supposed to end? I have no idea. I'm positive though that the ring wasn't supposed to break in the Living Dangerously match.

    Greatest Royal Rumble Matches

    92 gets my nod on pure fun. 2004 is a close second, and 90, though I don't remember it as vividly as the previous two I mentioned, is #3. I was typing what Barron said when he posted it. I'd forgotten how hot the crowd was for that.

    Why is my car overheating?

    Began running really hot Saturday afternoon (It's always at around 8-9 o clock on my gauge). I let it sit for a few hours, filled the rad with about a third of a four litre bottle of antifreeze. At the same time, it began sputtering. Took into my mechanic Sunday morn, thinking head gasket. He said no, and let it run for what he said was a few hours and a few trips around the block. Nothing. (The sputtering, he said, was due to a loose ignition wire not making contact with a spark plug). Drove it all yesterday and today, and nothing until about nine o clock. It got really hot all of a sudden. I managed to pull over, fill the overflow tank with a bottle of water I had in my car and sit for about ten minutes. It was cooler, but still a gamble taking it home, so I found a place to stop again and let it cool down a little longer before limping it home, still running really hot on the three or four kilometre trip. Is there a way to gauge how much coolant the rad needs? Is there an issue of adding too much? I'll let it sit overnight, it's less than a five minute drive to work, and the daylight there will let me top the coolant up.....If I top the coolant in the rad up, should I still put cold water in the overflow? Wil it make a difference? Edit: And I trust my mechanic immensely.
