While I’m not against the casual underdog claiming improbable victory, the lasting impact of a colossal upset (like we saw on Wednesday night [...]

Cialis Fodder

26Apr10

I used to be addicted to blogging. I’d blog in the day, at night, on vacation, I’d even blog from the ferry terminal. It was starting to become a real problem.

Great NHL commercial spoof

24Apr10

Here at the Jammerblog we tend to love certain athletes (Ovechkin) and not-so-love others (see point 8: http://thejammerblog.wordpress.com/2010/03/28/woolstencroft-fodder/) James “Jimmy” Howard falls into the former.

Canucks better off with a new captain?

22Apr10

I’m not sure if any of you saw this on Hockey Night in Canada but its definitely worth a look and most definitely worth a discussion. My two cents: Kesler has captain written all over him and given that he is now signed long term it makes sense that he would be the captain of [...]

A Vancouver Canuck conspiracy?

18Apr10

Check out this article from the Province newspaper this morning. Legitimate questions or sour grapes? Take a gander: Tony Gallagher: Yet another game for conspiracy theorists We all are learning to love conspiracy theories here in Vancouver with respect to hockey, so much so that we could be made honorary Americans who seem to celebrate [...]

12Apr10

Get ready, because this column is “Burnin’ Up”. (Note: That might be the best joke on this week’s column. Warning you now and possibly saving you 10 minutes of your life).
