That stuff is truly horrid (I'd drink Hungary's finest before it).

It sells in a huge wine warehouse in Buffalo, NY for less than $3 a bottle.

I wouldn't buy it at that price.

The finest Australian wine you can make with Romanian grapes!

Yeah but look at the trades he made...had to do some might big convincing on most of them. Plus getting Liles to sign for LESS money than he was making already.
- Domaju


I don't see it as much of a discount... for the next 3 years he will make more than his average over the last 4 years, the final year he takes the discount (and he will be 35).

Decent signing though. Bodes well for the 'team atmosphere'.

"In a recent interview Foster, star of X-rated movie Hi-Ho Hi-Ho, It's Up Your A**e We Go, spoke of his excitement about his growing career as Ramsay's double."

No joke necessary.

didnt you know, Doma? That horrible vampire warewolf movie all the teenage girls love was in fact about the Getzlaf's....they dont age. Plus, how else do you explain Getzlafs strength and desire for blood!?

I definately don't consider him a 1st line centre at this point.

However, keep in mind that Bozak is not a 1st line centre and he is performing admirably in between Kessel and Lupul. So far those two have shown that they can perform above a PPG pace as long as they have a centre that compliments them. Colborne may never be that #1 centre, but I could see his game complimenting Kessel and Lupul very well. Add to the fact that he has size, and some decent hands, and it oculd be a very good fit.

I do not expect the leafs to contend for the cup any time soon, so what is wrong with giving colborne the shot at fulfilling the position. It would be better if he could fill it rather than trading away a ton of pieces for a guy whose game may not work well with them. Its worth a try in my opinion, and I don't feel as if we are in any rush to win now.

As a matter of fact if we don't make the playoffs this year and Wilson is gone, I will be even happier with our progress

- mfreedman


I don't think Colborne has the speed to play with Kess and Loops. I would like to see Grabo play with them.

Something like this...

Lupul-Grabovski-Kessel
Kulemin-Bozak-Kadri
Lombardi-Connolly-Mac
Brown-Steckel-Crabb

with the Bozak line and the Connolly line sharing minutes.

Dude, please. What are you trying to do, make Getzlaf hate Toronto?

Keith Aulie is currently in a very respectful relationship with Ryan Getzlaf's sister.

Mr. Aulie calls her all the time, and does very thoughtful little things all the time, like sends her little notes telling her how much he loves her, or sending her gift certificates so that she and her friends can go out to fancy restaurants for a nice brunch.

"Banging" is what Mr. Aulie does to tramps who he meets in hotel bars while on road trips.

Oh crap - didn't mean to write that last sentence. Help - how do I edit????

- Atomic Wedgie


No. He's banging her.
