Deaf

I must be going deaf...because I can't hear any of the Roberto Luongo fanboys anymore. In fact, it's deathly silent.

Yes, I do acknowledge the fact that Canada beat Russia 7-3 but do the Brodeur haters acknowledge this stat: 3 goals on Russia's first 17 shots. I'm sorry but the Americans provided way more of a threat than Russia ever did.

The Russians played terrible. The Americans forced chances to happen by dumping the puck in and going after it. Russia made a terrible mistake by trying to carry the puck over the blue line. That doesn't work against Canada especially when they're on their game. You played fanastic, Luongo. Red Light Racicot could have won that game!

Roberto Luongo has proved absolutely nothing. Wins against Norway, Germany, and a lackluster Russian team are nothing to be impressed about. Put a goalie in the net that actually deserves it.

Pants

Look at those things! Awesome. Those are the pants that Team Norway wear while curling.

These must be the quirkiest Olympics of all time. When I first saw those pants, I was horrified. I slowly warmed up them and even want a pair. I guess 435,000 people agree with me as that is the number of fans of these pants on Facebook!

435,000 people panicked this morning when the higher-ups at Facebook decided that the fan page violated the sites terms of use. There was an internet equivalent of a riot this morning and for the first time, a riot actually achieved something. Two and a half hours later, the page was back up and running!

Now how do I get a pair?

Star Wars in the eyes of a Toddler

If you are at all a Star Wars fan, you will appreciate. If you aren't...this is what it's about. I'm a massive Star Wars fan and she gets my recommendation.

Team Canada

After the loss to the Americans Sunday night, it seems as though all Canadians are in panic mode. First of all all...why does everyone's emotional stability rely on how our hockey team does? That's not the point but still...calm down! We all know that Canada should have won that game. No reason to panic yet. They get one extra game to gel as a team and that's more important than an extra day of rest.

I am, however, not happy with Roberto Luongo being named starter. I am a New Jersey Devils fan, yes, but him starting over Martin Brodeur has nothing to do with me being frustrated about my favorite player being put on the backburner. What has Roberto Luongo ever won since the World Juniors? Not a lot. Since he's come to Vancouver, he has become a human funnel when the playoffs rolled around and he has threatened to retire from the game of hockey to go play poker. Vancouver named him captain of the team to make him a little more happy. This guy is a big baby. I want a person in net that has a PASSION for the game of hockey and a desire to win. I firmly believe that Luongo wanted back to Florida so he could have all the spotlight. No one on that team is good so Luongo would get all the shots and all the glory for their seventeen wins a season if he were to go back. He doesn't deserve to play for our country. If Marc Savard doesn't get to play for our country for having a reputation in the NHL as being a whiner, Roberto Luongo should be dismissed as well.

I'd rather see Marc-Andre Fleury in net instead of Roberto Luongo. You know...he helped Pittsburgh win the STANLEY CUP last year against Detroit. That's clutch. That's what Team Canada needs. The higher-ups on that team should also know that once Brodeur has a bad game, he's not going to have another for a LONG time. Put him back in net and let Luongo gamble his money away.

Proposal Gone Wrong

I think more hearts are broken on Valentine's Day than anything else. Poor guy. (LOL)

There are rumours going around suggesting that the two were paid actors.

Super Bowl Commercials

This was one of the first years that I've actually paid attention to the commercials during the Super Bowl. I was pulling for Indianapolis but I really could care less about either team that took part in the game this year. I was just hoping to entertained and that I was! The Who had a pretty sweet half-time show and the commercials were awesome! The Bud Light house of beer, the Doritos dog collar, and the Snickers commercial with Betty White playing football were all highlights. Click here to watch the commercials.

Bill O'Reilly vs. Jon Stewart

There are two parts to the interview I'm about to post but I'm just going to part two. Reason being...the first part is full of political jabber that, quite honestly, goes right over my head. No one wants to watch that. Part two is full of confrontation and we all love to watch confrontation so here it is for your viewing pleasure.

Debauchery Update

I know everyone wants to see people having sex in the stands at a Motley Crue concert. Don't lie! Well...the Winnipeg Sun removed the story and video from their website in fear of offending the politically correct. Well, I have no such fear! Here's the video...pay attention to the 3:30 and 4:20 marks.

Alberta Winter Games Volunteering

Whoa...it finally clicked in my head that it is the year 2010. I have still been labelling my entries as 2009!

Anyway, the winter games kick off tomorrow with the opening ceremonies (sold out) and you probably need a schedule so you know when the events are going down. Click here to see the schedule!

Also, the parents of the athletes coming to compete need a place to stay! Everything is booked up! If you're interested in opening your home or rental property to these parents, please post your ad here to let them know.
