Pirate of the St. Lawrence. Absurdist. Dry, sarcastic, sardonic, occasionally funny. Rambling about whatever occurs to me. Usually sports & Canadiana
Probably my fault. Don’t think I’ve set foot in one since 1994.

Remarkable the creativity of some. I can barely draw a stickman

Yeah, I don't know. I guess it depend about how you feel about having an off day. I know some teams complain about it, so perhaps some may prefer having the 2-vs-3 game

Come Friday, you gotta win two out of three regardless

It's a weird format, but such ifsCurling Canada

The soccer team was nothing but a pawn in the Bombers/Provinces plan to erase the stadium loan.

They needed to keep up appearances for a few years, and even at that the Bombers did the absolute bare minimum… once the loan was forgiven, they tossed the keys to the cpl

Just a cost of doing business

Ironically when she got three, it was a steal (Homan choked on a draw)

Though you’d think knowing your opponent is struggling on draws would make a steal look even better

I better be careful, or Asselin will hunt me down and lecture me more about the card

You’d think so when you choose to play ten down 2 with rather than tied without

I think it was lost as soon as she choose to do it that way… but apparently they think the math for three is better than for a steal

🤦‍♂️

My sister had a cat that wouldn’t give anyone else the time of day

She moved away to college. Cat still ignored everyone

Sister came to visit… cat walked in the room, surveyed the situation, then jumped in moms lap and snuggled like you wouldn’t believe

When she left, cat went back to ignoring

And that’s how Kovalchuk ended up in New Jersey

Just checked my recording for this morning (old name)... it stopped after 1:25 😂

Both things could be true. Some kids platoon around

So three days in they just change the title from "Milano Cortina Trials Curling" to "Canadian Curling Trials" and wreck my series recording?!

Thought he did his schooling in Nassau and Indiana.

Granted it's been a long time since I read his biography

Think we’re finally nearing the critical mass of the cultists starting to face up to that none of it adds up and starting to come to terms with all the garbage they’ve believed

That’s the hardest part and takes the longest

I guess Dunstone has had the hammer the whole time

So Matty...
