Today I hit a career low. I shot +1 on the 18-hole course on Manitoulin Island! Since it's the off-season and the Finals are still going on, coach say I could come up here to relax. I went golfing with Hall of Famer David Smalling, at Rainbow Ridge Golf course. It was a beautiful day. The kind of day that was made for golfing. Blue skies, a slight breeze, birds chirping, and of course, some insane golf-cart races. On the 12th hole we where jostling for position on the path that lead through the forest to the tee-off area. I bumped into Smalling and he bumped back. So I rammed into him and in a big scream of WTF, he steered off the path into a tree. I pulled up, stopped and we both looked at the damage of the golf cart. We turned to each other with this expression: The bumper was a little worse for wear and the roof was dangling by a string. We, obviously had to replace the golf cart with money. It was fun regardless of the expense but I do have to say: Mike, can I get a raise this coming season?

Come to Toronto and we'll tear it up. We can also find Nagger here somewhere.

Yet you still finished behind Liverpool. So I still don't see what you are saying when you say that Liverpool, the most successful English team in Europe, is a joke.

sooooooooooooooooooooo much ignorance here

And since I replied first you really should consider this! You can join BOOM and I

Liverpool. No question.

Looks like Suarez will be off to Barcelona. We've already gotten Lambert and Lallana. There were whisperings of getting Sanchez put we'll see. I think we still need to get some defense FFS. That was our huge weakness last season.

It's simple - you don't like the league... leave it. duh. No one's holding you down. Feedback's great as always but if you were confused - why not ask what to do? Also... maybe you want to read the Rubric for the bio before you write it. Don't see how you can complain about that.

Dechamps got his tactics all wrong. I have no clue why he didn't start Koscielny...Sakho was Sukho. Shoulda brought on Giroud earlier too.

Yup the ref was shite. Dirty knee to the back of Neymar. Colombia turned it on too little too late I'm afraid. Fantastic, quintessential-Brazilian free kick from Luiz though.

First 4 goals were on the PP. Triple OT. This is how the European Finals started out.

Stand Out Above the Crowd "The dream is over." The words of John Lennon echoed in the empty hallways of the hearts of Riga Reign's players and fans. The hearts that were filled with hope, optimism, and anticipation all throughout the season and into the playoffs vanished instantly, like a guy would the morning after a one-night stand. The Reign were forced to abdicate their Continental Cup run when they were dismantled by Davos Dynamo last night, by a shocking score of 6-1, losing the series in 5 games. The loss hit no one harder than Kameron Taylor, the veteran all-star, who played his last ever game in the VHL that night. In spite of the emptiness of his heart, he hung up his skates with a heavy one. Emptiness weighs you down perhaps more than anything else. "What can I say?" Taylor reluctantly asked. "We gave it our all in this series. I'm not sure where we went wrong but what does it matter-". Taylor paused and bowed his head. He seemed to be holding back tears in his proud eyes, although he'd try not to show it. Taking a deep breath he say: "I just want to thank everyone at Riga - the players, the coaching staff, Mike [the GM], and the fans. They've always been there for me and it brings me great pain to have to leave this wonderful group of people." Kameron Taylor, who started out his illustrious career with Cologne, was traded to Riga in Season 37 with 2 other teammates for a couple of first round picks and a second rounder in the hopes of winning a Continental Cup. The stage was set and hopes were high for success in Riga During the Season 37 Cup run, the Reign fell to the Dynamo in heart-breaking fashion. Undoubtedly the two best teams in the league the series was expectedly close throughout the series. In game seven, with the score tied at 1-1, during the last minute of the second period, Guido Schwarz Esq. took a stupid hooking penalty, which Davos scored on early in the third. Despite the loss, Riga confidently went into Season 38 with high hopes. They now had the most talented team in the league and statistically speaking, the best overall team in the league. Riga fans and players were lobbying hard for Taylor to lift the Continental Cup and end his career on the highest note possible - the same as the letter on his jersey. However, something in game 5 went wildly astray. After dispelling Vasteras in 5 games, the Reign once again met Davos to battle it out for a spot in the finals. This series, although only went 5 games, was one of the closest we've ever seen in the VHL. All except that last game were won by 2 goals or less (the most memorable being the game 1 double OT victory for the Dynamo). Game 5 was the anomaly. It was 1-1 going into the second and everything hung in the balance. During the second period, Riga took 5 penalties to Davos' 2 (not an uncommon amount to take based on this series) but Davos scored on 3 of those and added an even strength goal. In fact, 5 of the 6 goals were scored on the powerplay. In the end, it was the undisciplined play of Riga that lost them this hockey game. They accumulated 28 penalty minutes - no majors, while Davos were only called for 5 minors. This brought into question the officiating. The series was a hard fought one and there was some nastiness happening on both sides. Critics have called into question the reffing based on the involvement of 2 of the 3 commissioners, who are heavily invested in Davos. However these half-hearted appeals seemed to have fallen on deaf ears. Commissioner Victor doing his victory dance So brings to a close another of the VHL's top talents. Kameron Taylor, who finished second in the league with 115 points this season, will retire. This leaves Riga in a vulnerable position up front. It is not easy to replace someone of that high quality. "He is a great guy. I am definitely going to miss him," said Phil Villneuve about his teammate. "He showed great leadership on and off the ice and was a brilliant role model for me. He was definitely a stand-out forward of our generation. I wish him the best in his new life and hope that he will pop by from time to time and say hi, for old time's sake." The Dynamo will face either Toronto Legion or New York Americans. Toronto Legion are currently up 3 games to 2. Which teams will Riga bitch up next year?

lol Leaf fan here... Well honestly that was the shittiest way I've ever gotten eliminated in the playoffs... and that's happened quite a bit to me. The Knight Curse lives on. Davos, up until that final game it was one of the best series I can remember. All games were close and the intensity and hatred of either sides make it a blast. Until this game, which fucking blew chunks of walrus sperm up a squid's asshole. Anyway, good luck in the finally. I want to see the naked Naomi Young dance in the lockerroom though please. To Riga: it's been a blast but it's time to retire.
