Rumour on the street is Vancouver Canuck Fans want Kessler traded for his out lanished comments about Team Canada...he is a good player , but needs to be quiet...

Two Segments, the first will be basically live on the East Coast from Noon to 3 PM Eastern. At 3 PM Eastern, Noon Pacific, they will go live in all time zones for the Hockey Game, and then after the Hockey game (about 3 PM Pacific), we will get the first segment shown on the East Coast on a 6 Hour Time Delay... Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. Sigh, I have a media event at Knott's on Sunday (Pink's Hot Dogs official opening), looks like I am off to Amber Waves or T.G.I.Fridays to catch the end of the game around 1:30 PM.

Snow White wanted GRUMPY'S RED AND WHITE RAGE JERSEY, to help keep our fire burning, our skates skating in a relentless manner, in the case of OVERTIME..PLUTO'S ICE DOG JERSEY WILL be called upon..to take the bite out of the USA TEAM, if this fails and a shoot out is next....we have called upon A VERY SECRET WEAPON..ONE OF.DISNEY'S VERY OWN..........DONALD'S "SHIVA" DESTROYERS JERSEY...to help us ...win the shoot out....all this in fun of course...no matter who wins ...nothing is more important than friendship between our two countries...neither Silver or Gold compares...I too hope the refereeing is good, so far it has been very suspect...consistencey has been very poor, let em play..all game long,keep your whistle in your pocket...my prediction is Canada should win, if they do win it , I pick 4-2 ...if they lose 5-4.....i believe they will prevail...
