Best husband ever

Just wanted to acknowledge Fred for all his help behind the scenes with the blog. He often sends me articles of interest for the blog, and sometimes I'll include his input (usually noted) in the posts. While I can't give him credit for football, baseball, and basketball (that would be my dad), he did get me interested in soccer and hockey. He really gets credit for hockey, since I had a bias against it and the Flyers dating back to high school (I didn't care for the girls who, on Casual Day, wore their Ron Hextall jerseys and sighed about how dreamy Hextall was; can you blame me?). He, of course, is the HUGE Caps fan in the house (with Ottawa coming a close second on the list). Fred is also the inspiration for the Canadian content (what there is of it, anyway) on the blog. So here's to Fred- thanks!

What did Fred think of the commentary during the England-Paraguay game? We were very disappointed - especially when on announcer said "Michael Beckham". Not to mention the plastering of the tv screen with all the graphics so you couldn't see what was going on!

Liz- you ain't kidding. I heard that "Michael Beckham" comment and thought that Larry the Cable Guy could have called the game better. Those announcers SUCKED.

Liz, ESPN and ABC suck on the play by play coverage. I think I may go with the TV on, but listen to the XM coverage. So far NOT impressed. Especially by the US National team, what a disappointment. I hope they can at least put in a good showing the rest of the way.

Awww, what a lucky guy! No seriously, other than K-Fed (who hit the lottery) Chanuck must be the luckiest guy I know from Canada. ? Did Chanuck find the article about the Reds cheerleaders a few months ago? Because that was brilliant!

Jet. Yes I am the lucky Canuck.

No I did not find the info about the cheerleaders at the Reds game. But I always point out the cheerleaders at the Canes games. One day my buddy Mellon and I will check it out in person. ROAD TRIP!
