Better hide the children. The zamboni is rambling yet again! The latest targets: Whales, Charlie Sheen, a young goalie on the Washington Capitals and the retirement of a gold medalist. Best of all, there's nothing about head shots. - ER

Re. The Budget and Upcoming Election

Great...another Federal Election.


This election, whenever it's called, will have the worst turnout. Book it.


Canadians are apathetic about federal politics. We don't care, even if the government breaks the rules of Parliament. We don't care because we've come to expect this type of behaviour from our politicians.


What a sad state of affairs.


We have a great political system. But it sure ain't perfect.

Re. Paul Jones

The Raptors have won two games in a row. That hasn't been done since early in the season.

They played three good quarters against OKC and then nearly blew it in the 4th. But a win is a win.

Tell me...

Is there anything better than a super excited Paul Jones?

Re. Carey Price and Tim Thomas

Two weeks ago, Tim Thomas and Carey Price were under the influence of sheer idiocy.

Their little fight made me angry and inspired this new article.

Fighting in hockey will horrifically turn tragic one day.
