ubkev Posted October 23, 2012 Report Posted October 23, 2012 My hockey league isn't locked out and we started our season with a win last night! Felt so good to get back out on the ice with the team...just awesome! Quote
Sabre Dance Posted October 23, 2012 Report Posted October 23, 2012 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ympIInqjg08 I was a little worried when I saw the police officers, but yeah, that was pretty awesome! Quote

Sabres Fan in NS Posted October 25, 2012 Report Posted October 25, 2012 The Hajj, one of Islam's pillars of faith ... http://religion.blogs.cnn.com/2012/10/24/ireporters-5-life-lessons-from-the-hajj/?hpt=hp_c4 It ends today at sunset. Today is a fasting day. Eid starts at sunset today. It is to recognize the sacrifice Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) (may the Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon him) was willing to do at the bequest of God ... his own son. Both were willing to bow to Gods will and God, recognizing this, did not have Ibrahim sacrifice his son. Quote
spndnchz Posted October 25, 2012 Report Posted October 25, 2012 Most of you guys won't like it but this crowd and song are awesome! Quote
MattPie Posted October 25, 2012 Report Posted October 25, 2012 (edited) Most of you guys won't like it but this crowd and song are awesome! http://youtu.be/DzivgKuhNl4 Heh, white dude in a suit at 1:25. And they apparently have different standards on lip-sync over there. It's not bad at first but towards the end it's really obvious. I do love the song though, I remember hearing it on this thread just before it went nuts. Edited October 25, 2012 by MattPie Quote
darksabre Posted October 27, 2012 Report Posted October 27, 2012 Sylvester Stallone cop movie trifecta. Judge Dredd, Demolition Man, and Cobra. 2/3 were on tv tonight. Awesome. Quote
SwampD Posted October 28, 2012 Report Posted October 28, 2012 Watched Rain Man tonight. Haven't seen it in probably 20 years and certainly not from this side of the glass. There's a reason Dustin Hoffman and the movie won Oscars. Quote
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted October 28, 2012 Report Posted October 28, 2012 . There's a reason Dustin Hoffman and the movie won Oscars. Definitely. Quote
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted October 28, 2012 Report Posted October 28, 2012 It's 43, dark, dreary, and rain from Sandy's outer bands coming down from the east.....I'm grabbing a smoke on the deck after my religious, fall Sunday call to Uncle Vito....and just over yonder the church bells start to ring out Ave Maria. You can't buy moments like that.... Quote

Claude_Verret Posted October 30, 2012 Report Posted October 30, 2012 That is a huge accomplishment. Nice to hear. Yes it is. He has toiled on the Canadian and Nationwide / web.com tours for close to a decade, and he's persevered so he deserves his shot at the big time. He's played in a few PGA events over the years (one US Open and a few Canadian opens) but he'll get to play a bunch this year. Quote

I went to one in Maryland a few years back, and it was a great time. I can't stand golf on TV unless it's the Masters or Ryder, but live, it was something else. Probably has a lot to do with being outside on a nice day. Quote

So, what, Ra-cha-cha isn't too far to go to see an AHL game, but it is to see the best golfers in the world? PGA Championship 2013 will be at Oak Hill. http://www.pga.com/p...egistration.cfm (Yeah, it's too far for me to go to watch it too, and I live here. ;)) Quote

I agree, watching these guys play live is amazing. I credit my brother in law with curing me from seeing a need to try to improve my game and in turn saving me a lot of money over the years. I've played a few rounds with him, and what I'm doing out there can't really be called golf anyway. As far as the events, I went to the Masters two years ago and I was shocked at what a booze fueled event that is. When you get to the tucked away concession areas and men's rooms people are hooting and hollering like at a football game. I also went to the 2000(?) PGA championship where Tiger beat Bob May in a playoff. The 2014 men's and women's US open is at Pinehurst which is about 45 minutes from my house, and I'm hoping to go to some of that. Quote

Here's to hoping your BiL is still on the tour then. :beer: I had no idea. I'll have to go. Let me know which days you come in for. We'll have to grab a brew. :beer: Quote
