um, my birthday as displayed here is not accurate, on purpose.
I remember exactly where I was while watching the Miracle On Ice, and the importantance of it, and that it wasn't even the Gold medal game. Herb Brooks left us far too soon. In '88 I remember the Flames had a 15 or 16 day road trip because the Saddeldome was being used for the Olympics, that's about when I became an Ijinla fan, must've been his rookie year. It amazing to look at places like Lake Placid because there is no way in hell they could host the games there now without quadrupling the size of the town, at a minimum.

I think Minny has that very young Russian kid - can't remember his name off hand - got a couple of goals previous game, but yes Greenway does look good also.

Those skiers and boarders are just plain and simple bat shit nuts. ???

Lol OK. And I thought you were a punk kid. That miracle on ice did wonders for hockey in the US. If that doesn't happen I dont think hockey would be as strong in the US as it is. They have a very solid hockey program now.

too uncomfortable to sleep last night, both channels had hockey on. After watching two crap games yesterday I had zero interest, so it was reruns of Blue Planet
