    I cannot believe Sportsnet will not be showing a single match of the entire Championship in the Pacific region. It's downright disgusting. FFS, Vancouver is one of the teams in the bloody contest....

    The airport isn't convenient to walk as it's at least 2-3 miles depending which way you go and you would have to walk along highways that aren't pedestrianised, which would mean prohibited.

    I was standing next to Alexis once in a pub way back in the day when he had his afro red hair. He was drunk and acting like a big ladies man. It was very embarrassing to all within earshot.
