      i use to think that the worst thing would being the last of my siblings to live. now there is only my 87 year old sister and i left. my wife is gone. luckily i have a 50 yr old son and a 25 yr old grandson. i’m okay with that.

      It's not that I'm afraid of dying. I just don't want to be there when it happens.

      Difference between a no class individual like Avery and the rat Marchand?  Avery generally just hurts your feelings with his mouth.  Marchand tries to deliberately physically injure you.

      Marchand wishes he was half the man Avery was.

      @King HeffyAvery even kind of pokes fun with himself as a movie actor where the Rocket beats the crap out of him

  5. Aladdin is going to be soooooooo good. My favourite Disney Story.

     

    Toy Story is my favourite Pixar flick, so I am pumped for that also. Nostalgic summer 2k19

      People are really annoyed that Will Smith was cast as the Genie.  I can definitely see it flopping.

  6. I sometimes miss being this age

  7. Going on my first proper date in almost three years on Sunday. When you get cheated off once, you tend to have trust/commitment issues. I really like her guys.

      @coastal.view Its NSFW or CDC

       

      @Jaku Appreciate you <3

  8. I have a really bad feeling about Baer. With how cagey the Canucks have been, I wonder if it is something more serious than a flu or even a concussion. I pray its not though.

    1. Nucker 67

      Nucker 67

      He contemplated continuing his career after his last concussion, and now he's out again. I wonder if this is it for Baer as well. His health is more important.

      When a league sanctions unpunished shots on certain team's players...

    3. 40Dangles

      40Dangles

      Yes, they didn't want to say concussion issues but when you're sent home for 'testing' and you've had concussion issues it certainly smells of it. Crosby battled for a long time after a similar hit many year ago....most remember, but very similar blind side. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets shut down for the season. For him to relapse if it is concussion related is not a good sign at all long term, especially given he wasn't hit by anyone.

  9. There are tons of media that are clamouring for us to be bad (**cough** Botch **cough**) and that the worst case scenario is a 9th place finish in the conference. I look at some of the players that were taken in the 12-18 range (where I think we will pick) and I see a lot of really good talent. Macavoy, Fabbro, Brannstrom, Vakkahainen, Denisenko, Ty Smith. We are going to get a really good player.

      I would tend to agree with botch for other teams. But when it’s your players in the early 20’s winning you meaningful games it can only be good for them.

       

      When the Sedins and Vrbata along with Ryan Miller got the team to the playoffs, I didn’t really see the benefit in that going forward. We got lucky Boeser fell that next draft but he easily couldn’t have

      I don't think you are picking up what I am putting down. There is really good value in the teens is what I am saying @LordCanuck

    4. -AJ-

      -AJ-

      At this point, finishing just outside the playoffs is more valuable than a pick around 7-10 IMO. We have most of the pieces we need to become competitive already, they just haven't fully matured yet.

  10. I miss @ShakyWalton:(

      @johngould21 thats how him and I met I started posting music on his 'what are you listening to thread' , he seen where I was from , he rattled off a few names , I did the same ,we realized we had more than few mutual friends , i've also spent a few days with smithers joe last year in terrace when he had eye surgery , shakeys name was john , you could tell by talking with him he was a man that knew a lot of people , we did have a plan to get together but my trip south was a little late.

      Update: I did some research, and came upon her story. Wow. That is all I can really say. Inspiring. Beautiful. Smart. So understanding about life's true meaning. I think I have a new crush:wub:

  12. If you think the Leafs get talked about to much, you must hear what they were talking about in the Alamo Bowl today. Basically talked more about the CFP than the game itself, which is sad because WSU set a school record in wins, and had multiple players set school and conference records in the game. Bias reporting is found everywhere sadly.

     

    Also Gardner Minshew II is Baker Mayfield minus the douchebag

      Really?  This dude isn't a douche?

       

      “I will tell you one other thing: We’ve lost two games this year but we haven’t lost a party," Minshew said.

      SabreFan1

      Gotta believe someone who has met him.  He looks like most other cocky QBs in the media so maybe they're a bit rough on reporting him.

  13. Boycotting the Oscars this year due to the Kevin Hart Scandal. We have become too soft and sensitive as a society. We take things out of context to fit a narrative. We put celebrities on pedestals, and expect them to be perfect.

      Sad we won't get to see that physical element on the blue line.  Best Canadian teams all had a guy or two that could intimidate the opposition.

  16. Get my travel story today trying to get back to Vancouver

     

    Left Pullman, WA by bus to go to Spokane Airport at 4pm

    Got to Spokane Airport at 6

    Got through security and to my gate at 630 (Flight at 845 to Seattle, Connecting Flight 1115 to Vancouver)

    Flight delayed a half hour

    Flight delayed another half hour

    Get on plane, mechanical failure another 45 min delay

    Get into Seattle at 12 AM, I am on the tarmac as my plane leaves while I am waiting for my bag, which I didn't want to check in and was forced too.

    Its ok because there is a flight to Bellingham which fits my schedule. They had space and didn't let me on, made me go to customer service where there was 70 people in front of me.

    Waited in that line for and hour and a half

    Got a flight to bellingham for 9am tomorrow and a free night at the red lion.

    Waited a half hour for a shuttle to the hotel. 

    I just got into my room now, 11 hours since my departure.

     

    Did I mention, I have a wedding that starts tomorrow at 11 (at UBC)?

      You must be flying Alaska!  I have all sorts of stories to tell about them!

      My favorites were when they didn't know were my 10 year old niece was after her flight landed after 30 mins when they were supposed to be accompling her. Another time was we we less than 5 mins to take off, and had to de board after they made their annoncement.  One of the  brakes were worn down.  Another time we were missing a First Commander.  Another time, mechanical failure.  Another time, the crew was on another flight waiting to land.  But when I flew up to Alaska and back, they were a delight and took off on time to and from. And I told everyone to give them a second chance.  Then I flew with them again, and we were back to square one.  I get so pissed off at them, then a few months later, I fly with them again because they are cheap and have more flights, then I remember why I was not going to fly with them.  It's a cycle.

  17. So apparently I had strep throat all last week. Wasn't that bad tbh. The worst part is that I have to take Penecillin for 10 days and I HATE taking pills

  18. Looking ahead to this road trip, if the boys are serious about making a run at this thing (meaning the playoffs), they need at least 8 of 12 points. This roadie is not as tough as the last one imo, and I think with the way the team is playing right now, it is definitely possible.

      I don't view playoffs aspirations as selfish, I'm excited for us to get back there too. The character these guys will build as they fight for points down the stretch should stay with them for years, even their whole careers. Playoffs happen when they happen. For now, 1 game at a time.

  19. Just read a story about a mobster named Whitey Bulger (89 y/o) who was killed a day after he was reassigned to a different prison. Ended up looking him up, and found out that his siblings went on to become very successful. One of his brothers became a leader of the Democratic party of Massachusetts and was the university president at UMASS. The other was a court clerk magistrate. I just thought that it was crazy how opposite ends of the spectrum they were

     

    Could you imagine being their parents?

  20.  

    Yours truly is one of those in the crowd. I am so excited for this its not even funny.

  21. The sports gods have handed me some tough losses the last 12 months.

     

    Italy not making the World Cup

    Yankees lose game 7 of the ALCS, then lose to Boston in the most heartbreaking of fashions this year.

    All those missed Field Goals by the Seahawks

    The Earl Thomas situation

    Robi Cano situation

    Andre Pirlo retirement

    Sedins retirement

    Reggie Bush's retirement

     

    At least I am walking with Elias:mellow:

      Being a life long Canuck fan hasn't prepped you for this?  I always figured sports fandom was full of tough losses :P

    Heisman front runner and the 9th pick in the NFL MLB Draft.

      Murray was the 9th overall pick in the MLB Draft, wasn't he? The Athletics signed him and apparently he plans to report to spring training next season.

      This just in:  He looked at a trans-woman funny then used the incorrect pronoun when he said hello and a college age beta male in the general vicinity filed a police report because he was offended.  The police are investigating.

       

      The A's have cancelled their draft pick and Roger Goodell has placed him on the commissioner's exempt list to block him from the NFL draft.

      Nah, it was just one of those weird things you'd only see in a Yankees-Red Sox series. I enjoy watching them play each other, but don't necessarily like either of them.

       

      My comment was more of the "I wonder what category that falls under?" variety.
