Wild bunch was a wild ride...even by todays standards.

Outstanding film with an outstanding cast.

My weekends were usually eating McDonalds while watching Fat albert. and a lot of AWA wrestling with the classics: Richard the bruiser and the Crusher. Yukon Moose Cholak. There was always a commercial they did locally I cant remember what for, though? Used car lot?

When Cholak wrestled in these parts he was introduced as the "Golden Moose" from Antioch, Illinois. Loved it when he laid a beating on Hans Schmidt one night at the Buffalo Auditorium.
- RickJ

Antioch? Bet everyone was like where? he was a good one. Hard to believe Ric Flair was probably starting out around then. Seemed a different era. Can't believe this auto-correct changed his name to Richard the Bruiser.

Yeah it was the better movie, but I hardly knew anyone. that is another huge part of my youth: 70's and early 80's kung fu movies. Shogun assassin, 5 masters of death, anything with shaolin in the title. Good times

Nothing? Or nothing they'd be wiling to give up?
- SotaPopinski



Getting somebody like and Eberle or Hall would be great for sure, but losing a topping pairing defenseman like Seabrook would just create another hole. We'd have to take a defenseman back and none of Edmonton's defenseman would fit in our top 5.

Im sorry - didn't know we were including CLASSICAL ACTRESSES.


- StLBravesFan

actually if you want to see a really beautiful acting performance there is a movie that gets shown on showtime a lot called passion play with Mickey rourke from 2010. It stars Megan Fox. People pick on her but she was great in this

For McQueen another would be the Getaway with Faye Dunaway. Alex could not hold a candle to it with the remake. Sam Peckinpah was the best.
- rtang415


By the way Faye D. is also in the Towering Inferno with the other two...as Newman's love interest.

I was reading somewhere that McQueen turned down the role given to Newman - he wanted to be the firefighter. He also had the production crew remake all of the fire helmets because he wanted the brims higher in the front so you could see the actors faces. That's star power kids and he was right.

Damn how bad was he? That is the hardest sport to call in general and I can imagine how tough when you don't know anything about it. Who was the color guy?

Given the fatigue factor, I hope Kane and Toews cut down on their hard partying ways till the summer. Unfortunately, I know that won't happen.
- faustus1500


Is this a problem this year?

Toews, too?

Watch all the WWII movies and all the actors wore their cover way back so you could see their face with no shadows.

Didn't do it for long - don't remember any color guy - don't think Lloyd Petit ever had one, either.

All kidding aside, I do get your point! IF there was an honest emoticon to post here I would throw up 10 of them.

One thing I try to remember is that 1, there are no garauntees no matter what you do, and in our case, we just have a difference of philosophy. You would opt for the experience and more of a status qou, and I do not mean that in a bad way. While I am of the mind that a young guy or 2 playing most of the season is going to acclimate and find a role or a niche.

You and I have reached nirvana.....
