The U.S. looks so much faster, but Canada is using a lot of short passes really effectively.

A tweet from Jon Bois in 2014 that reads "Why watch overtime playoff hockey when you can simply snort cocaine and ride a motorcycle out of a helicopter"

It's been said, but

Well, that's pretty darn cute. The Olympics are such a great vibe.

Liking this for the holder but also for the assortment of Japanese saws

Yeah, this hit is one of my all-time favourites. Not a single question of it being a head-hit, just perfect shoulder-to-chest obliteration. You don't see yard sale hits often anymore, but it adds so much to the drama.

We've been busy being the only thing between you and a Pierre Poilievre majority.

Love rewatching that. Found one in YT where he goes to Newfoundland and St-Pierre and Miquelon that was pretty good, too. Not as good as the Québec stuff, but still worth it. youtu.be/bQUpvEaLqfU?...

I endorse this general plan, with the caveat that you might quibble with the value of Steve’s hypothetical trade returns (though I think they’re pretty reasonable) and your mileage may vary on his proposed replacement targets. But broadly, this is what the Leafs should be attempting.

America has mass concentration camps. That’s not hyperbole.

Cheers!

Yeah, must be Super Bowl Sunday, because I’m eating home-made scotch eggs.

Going to see them with Florry at the end of the month in Montreal! Looking forward to it. I’m more of a Florry guy, but I’m gonna have to sink my teeth into this new Ratboys record.

Ach, disappointing.

It was really good. No beating myself up about that part.

Gnocchi and Italian sausage in a creamy basil sauce with garlic bread on the side. The wine (also used in the sauce) is mostly cropped out.

I think I used a little too much white wine in the cream sauce.

No, I do the same

Ah, Sunday afternoons. Is there anything more well suited to you than a new book and a few records?

Have been meaning to read this one for more years than I care to count.

What do you MEAN the president audibly SHIT himself live on camera and they immediately cancelled the press conference and rushed everyone out of the room like it's a fire drill, and it happened two days ago, and I'm just hearing about it NOW?

If you can live through February, you can live another year

I don’t *understand* Auston Matthews’ backhand. It doesn’t seem to adhere to any of the ordinary laws of physics.

Letter From Minnesota: “If They Take Me and Leave the Children…” Today is Tuesday, January 27th, 2026. I got gas for the first time this year by myself. The gas station was mostly empty. I drove into the station, heart thudding in my chest. I did everything as f…

Who ever did this, you win. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Feels pretty openly seditionist, right? Courting the foreign leader who has/is openly trying to annex Canada when you’re already in a separatist organization? Seems like that’s the kind of thing you could get in a lot of trouble for?

Journalists would be wise to not lump in a bunch of randos who have never demonstrated popular support for an independent Alberta with Quebec, where the next governing party was founded to create an independent Quebec. Completely different realities.

Hey so what the heck happened to Berube, anyway?
