Okay that sucked the life out of me for about 15 minutes, but I’m over it. What a game that was between USA and Canada! Just superior skill and spirit on both sides, a game for the ages. An American win would have done wonders for this land, but a loss would have killed the collective Canandian spirit for quite some time. It might have been weeks of mourning in The Great White North where hockey is life.
I have some great friends up there, including the Moore family who lives in Victoria, BC, right in the middle of The Olympic craziness that was Vancouver. Naturally I had a bet with the man of that house, Blaine, who used to play for, and later coached the Fresno Falcons of the ECHL. Obviously I lost the bet so it’s time to swallow personal and national pride. The monetary part will come in the form of food. I owe Blaine dinner. The other part is less tangible, but no less painful. I just got an email from him asking, “Where’s my picture?” Here it is Blaine. Enjoy it. Where we going, McDonald’s?
