Poor Ron, taking a right load of stick for them comments he made.

Didn't know who this guy was, so I looked him up. Interesting comments he made, eh? Laughing

This reminds me of a similar incident here in Canada. A Hockey Night in Canada commentator in the intermissions, Don Cherry, said something like "only French and European guys wear visors" for their helmets. I didn't see what the big deal was but Quebec was up in arms, so they put him on a seven-second delay before broadcasting so they could make sure he doesn't say stuff like that again. Rolling Eyes

In all fairness hes entitled to an opinion and the ironic thing is, he did actually say it off air but so television company from Dubai was still recording nearby ... unlucky sod! Ah well! Razz

Canada better smarten up at the World Championships though. I can't believe they only tied Austria.

Andy P · **Posted:** Thu Apr 29, 2004 2:56 am

c'mon dude...we usually start slow at the championships...then the cdn grit takes over.

like this really means much to me.....world cup in sept in toronto...with the real full power CDN team....hehehhe...rubs his hands ...oh my...the talent we got and like the Americans or Europeans can beat us....MWAHHAHAHA...we just unstoppable and then the country can go mad like it did in feb 2002...oh my that was fun...

remember here....7 world cups....out of that..we won 5....lol

The World Championships are kind of corny, the the playoffs still on in the NHL, I don't know about the European leagues, but..
Not really a good measurement of talent. You're dead on about the World Cup, I'm waiting for it!

so you saying you soldout then?

lol...I can't really say I'm completely Canadian either because my mother is American from Michigan but has lived here 30 yrs, more than in the States and I hold dual with an automatic greencard...doubt I'll ever live in the US..but who knows. I'm proud to be Canadian tho.

see being your age in the states does nothing for you....see being my age.which is almost 2fucking3...I can legally drink and vote in both countries

bounce · **Posted:** Sat May 01, 2004 1:02 am

I don't think I am going to bother to become a US citizen... too time-consuming and complicated. so i'll never be able to vote, oh well.

Andy P · **Posted:** Sat May 01, 2004 1:03 am

I already am one technically with my dual. I just need to apply for social security and since I have a green card....it's automatic.

bounce · **Posted:** Sat May 01, 2004 1:08 am

Nice. It took me FOREVER to get a social security number, and I couldn't have a job or driver's lisence without one... talk about a drag.

And to become a citizen I hear you have to take this rediculous citizenship test with questions like "Who was the 18th president of the United States?" Who cares? I bet most Americans don't even know that.
