Hey, eat shit and die, pal. We have the Philadelpia Wings indoor lacrosse team here in the Delaware Valley and they're 5 time world champs... we regularly kick the shit out of the Canadian teams.

You don't know WHAT lacrosse is until you've seen it done Philly style. There is NO audience more nasty and brutal to both the home and away teams than Philadelphia. I've seen guys take concussions and get the shit knocked out of them during games... they wear a fraction of the padding hockey players and football players wear, and they run up and down the adtroturf so much, it would make a normal man puke his guts up. Not to mention that taking a spill on turf will shred your kneecaps faster than a food processor. Lacrosse is a very fast-paced, brutal sport.

I'm already working on moving to Australia, thanks.

Until the Toronto Rock came "aboot"... who's got the championship now? You're right, had a chance to take in a couple games at MLG - these guys are brutal, and the crowd was really into it. Small wonder this sport's gonna keep that old building alive and rockin' long after the Leafs price their way out of most of our budgets in that Edifice of Corporate Greed.

You got that right. Nice to see that the owners of the Rock have no intentions on raising ticket prices next year either (top ticket's C$20 - about US$14). Hope to see more teams, and thus more games. ___ "Be careful? My mother wasn't careful when she stabbed me in the heart with a coathanger when I was in the womb!"

Hey! I was led to believe that Fosters was crap, and that the various Australian microbrews were the way to go. If that's the case, then wouldn't offering a Fosters to a visitor be an insult? Another way of saying, "Your palette probably cannot descriminate between a quality beer and kangaroo piss, so there's no need to waste the good stuff on you. Here, have a Fosters." :)

Actually, Dave is right. Fosters may be well known world wide, but here, I don't know anyone who drinks the crap.

Also, a few more things: Our prime minister is Jean C-H-R-E-T-I-E-N, we spell 'color' C-O-L-O-U-R, 'neighbor' N-E-I-G-H-B-O-U-R, etc. Also, we have the 'Tom Green' show, which is one of the silliest and most gruesome shows ever! It's WORSE than South Park!!

Besides, didn't I spot Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson on the soudntrack singing "O Canada" - if that's not being able to laugh at yourselves, I don't know what it.

God bless Canada! :-)

Indeed, SP ha made more pithy barbs about Amercian culture than it ever has with Canada. I mean, for all the jokes about how cool it is to own a gun, I doubt whether Stone and Parker subsrobe to the NRA...
