You never know.... hockey in Florida? Texas? Anything is possible.

I don’t follow the lives of NHL players,
but is it still true that the majority were born in Canada? How do those Canadians feel about living in Fl. or Tx.?
In the Big Bend and panhandle of Florida where I live, Canadians are famous and a curiosity for swimming in the Gulf with 55 degree F water temperature. True snowbirds.

Jamaican bobsled team, just sayin'.

If disintegrating a cigarette butt in a urinal ever becomes an Olympic Sport, I’m the new Michael Phelps.

I'll take you on. Let's get it!

Back in my finger poppin’ days when i went out wearing nothing but Armani and Versace, wearing Rosetti shoes, i typically started six feet back and did a slow walk in. Now that I’m married, wearing jeans and Sketchers, you stand little chance.

 

[jmmyoh]

I got my steel toe monk shoes, rag and bone jeans and some gumption.

Loser buys the beer.

 

[davedamage]

Once again... best thread ever.

 

[HueyFreeman]

Um.., I think I just accidentally purchased a Tremond.

 

[davedamage]

A Dave doesn't accidentally purchase anything.

 

[davedamage]

I'm not going to start on the sheer random madness that has been my gear shopping today.

Enjoy it - a favorite Rat of mine!

And now, the US is out of the World Cup. Can't say I'm surprised, but wow - some sloppy stuff going on. Now I have to figure out who else to root for! My two main teams (Germany and USA) are both out. Now I'm thinking one of the smaller teams left. Let's have a wild upset!

 

[Gorilla Monsoon]

I thought about buying a Matchless here. I don’t need a Matchless but i thought about it. Like more than i should have. Set up a healthy/unhealthy decision, healthy won out, setting up a reward of sorts…I saved $2100.

Now i have $2,000 to spend but Ive saved $100.

NORWAY!

 

[WG Plum]

Or England.

 

[jmmyoh]

Morocco!

 

[Enrique M]

At this point Morocco, Norway, Egypt. In that order.

I watched a FIFA youth world championship Morocco vs. Nigeria in the early 2000s in a crowded Tea house in meknes. No room anywhere, but a group of Moroccans saw me scouting for a seat from the door and all scrunched up so I could watch with them. Surreal
Experience as I speak zero Arabic or French. Great time. Always loved Moroccan soccer since.

So far the Norwegian seem to be one of the few teams that actually get up off the ground and keep playing, instead of trying to win an Oscar for most elaborate injury scene. So, I gotta root for that.

And Egypt. Well that place is historically cool. Love seeing there supporters in the king tut head gear.

Having said all that, once every four years is about all i can take of 90 min of regular time and 30 min extra for a 1-0 score. My European friends see wonderful games, I get in a couple naps. But I am trying to get on board

Well, this Dave did. Don't ask how.

 

[kleinenenten]

NORWAY!

Probably my choice. I love Viking stuff.
