*crowd chants Harmi* that was hilarious. Another fantastic day for us

I agree with what the Australian commentators said - as soon as they revealed that Jones would be keeping, Panesar would never play. Because of the way he bowls, he's suited to a keeper more of Read's style. This can be read as: Jones can't catch, and Giles never needs his keeper to take a catch. Thus they're a perfect fit. That said, great day aussies - looking forward to more of the same tomorrow

Aww but we didnt have JayBo at that time

this is true. Ovechkin's contract is worth about 14.5 million..over 4 years, at 3.6 per year. I thought it was fair.

OK, cool. So i'm Colorado (There's other teams??) We were knocked out in 7 by the ducks in ...03/04 - but picked up some talent from a boneheaded Atlanta GM. That talent goes by the names Ilya Kovulchuk and Kari Lehtonen. 04/05 we won the cup and Lehtonen scooped himself the Vezina. Huzzah! 05/06 we had a lot of good players lost to waiver draft. In particular I was most upset to lose Cristobal Huet. (my third stringer) The coup of the offseason was Forsberg and Selanne refusing to resign, so I dealt them to Chicago for Ovechkin and a second round pick. Forsberg wouldn't sign with Chicago either and was promptly scooped up by yours truly on Free Agency. Players In: Ovechkin, 2nd Round Pick. Players Out: Selanne. Early in the season I stocked up on old washed up defensemen (McGillis and Stevens examples) and traded them and Aebischer for Crosby and Stajan and a pick. So at the moment my team is: Kovulchuk - Forsberg - Kovalev Ovechkin - Crosby - Hejduk Tanguay - Sakic - Kariya Stajan - Langkow - Primeau (Keith) Bouwmeester - Kubina Liles - Zidlicky Blake - Foote Lehtonen - Boucher we're 29-7-4-2, eight points clear of Edmonton in the division, and fifteen points clear of St. Louis in the conference. We're 4 points ahead of New Jersey in the league, but they have two games in hand. And Kari Lehtonen is better than the best two goalies you can think of combined. Honest.

Given that I cant find an "Original EHM" thread, and I cant download 2007 on dialup, would people mind overly much if i talked about my team in here?

My avs are doing miserable, beating us is no achievement... and ending a sellout streak meant no one wanted to see chicago play. so take the above post for what you will... P.S. anyone want breeze-by? anyone? anyone at all?

Last year I came in the hockey thread and said "Avs for the cup" This year i'll be stoked if we even manage to make the playoffs

i'm on dialup. What's the over/under of me being able to download it?

download only? I'm PISSED now. I really wanted this game, and it looks like it wont be happening anymore

I'd endorse The Misanthrope's suggestion of Every Day I Love You Less and Less.

I laughed. High-Quality headbutt. Couldn't have happened to a nicer cunt.. Ok, so I lie Mr. Grosso.

its the worst cover i've heard..i steered clear after that

Given that i'm a goalie, Mark Schwarzer (cos he's aussie) and Paul Robinson at some other position, i'd say Matt Le Tissier...i've got a dvd of the "games and goals" of the first premiership season...some of the things he did with the ball were absolutely magical.

Hiddink I believe can come back and coach the socceroos for 2010 - I read somewhere his agreement with Russia is only for Euro 2008

All Saints i think their name was did Under the Bridge...i didnt enjoy that one bit

Well they both messed up red card decisions

mudda, from the short amount of US football I watched, he was exciting. He made some good runs and generally wreaked havoc for some defenses. This was exciting. So by your own definition, he did exciting things and thus was exciting.

Landon Donovan I think his name is? someone Donovan anyway. There is only so much of Martin Tyler I can interpet

To be fair, despite having some exciting players, the USA sucked over the majority of the tournament

as awful as (imo) the red card was... Rooney, you idiot. maybe if Italy and Portugal play...and everyone dies...especially Ronaldo and Totti...oh and Grosso...it will have been a great world cup.

and the whole superman repeating what his father said to him thing.
