Can My Niners Win?(Are they my Niners anymore?)

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

What the fuckkkk happened?  I remember sneaking out of my bed during Monday Night Football when i was 11 and during pre-game they played a Jerry Rice montage* in preparation of him breaking the all-time TD record held by Jim Brown. It's crazy cause everybody expected greatness and what we got WAS greatness.  That feeling is far from happening now.  I'm sorry I just realized that this is one of the biggest opening night statements ever in sports(they went on to win the Super Bowl).   


*that montage was hightened even more by the song "Dreams" by Desiree that was even featured in the P.T. Anderson movie Magnolia.

Hi again

Top 5 Favorite CHL Hockey Players:

5. Jason Fitzsimmons - Goalie for the Moose Jaw Warriors during my 18 months living there, he had a great "new style" mask and he signed both a mini stick and a hockey card for me.

4. Stephen George - Georgey was notorious for jacking off in his Ford Ranger on his back and forths from "The Dub" and "pulling rank" at parties.

3. Felix Potvin - The only reason I know what and where Chicoutimi is. I still don't know what Sauguenees means. Oh wait, I just looked it up. Thanks Felix!

2. John Varga - The Tacoma Rockets had the most beautiful mini sticks. Varga played for them from 92-94. My peak mini stick years.

1. Alexandre Daigle - Had Daige lived up to his potential, he would of been better than Gretzky and maybe even better than Lemieux. Plus his rookie card, coming into the 94-95 season, was even more sought after than Tacoma Rockets mini sticks. I don't know if I've ever wanted anything more.

Chris!

Hibernation officially over

Tuesday.April.22.2008.

Note:
For those of you expecting a Tom Tuesday this evening I'm sorry but its not going to happen. We have missed the last couple due to a regrettable decision i made in letting Carli author one for U of T cruiser, Jamie Thomas. Its not that Jamie isn't deserving, he more than is, its that Carli dropped the ball and in turn made me look like the ball dropper for allowing her this privilege. Since the ball has been doubly dropped i've decided to retire the weekly Tom Tuesday column, I have realized i cannot handle this responsibility nor can my lady. I have no problem resurrecting the column every now and again especially considering we have yet to touch on Tom Brady or the aforementioned gritaholic Jamie Thomas, but for now we shall put it on the back burner.
End Note.

News and Stuff:
I've been M.I.A. lately at ATJ and i'd like to apologize, i have no excuse aside from my own laziness and lack of blog worthy material but i hope the blogger block has come to an end.
In my hiatus Kev dropped the long awaited Kobe post which is must read material and Steve wrecked his ankle. Its not really a coincidence the two events happened back to back.

We're amidst hockey and basketball playoff madness at the moment which has been on a lot peoples minds and has taken up a majority of the conversations between males 12 to 71 in the last week and a bit. Unfortunately i haven't followed either which leaves me a little lost when around such discussions and my "Ovechkin is better than Crosby" can only take me so far seeing i have barely any substance to back this claim only a deep seeded hate of Crosby. In fact most claims i make involving sports are unsubstantiated. Oh well.

Had the pleasure of Steve and Dan's company at the already (in my mind) classic Sunday 9:40 screening of Forgetting Sarah Marshall, I'll have the full review up in the next couple of days but just so you know it will involve pulsating near the point of shaft bursting bone dogs.

I'm sure it will come as no surprise to anybody but my car is in the shop.

During a recent pole amongst co workers i've established that Kristen Bell is hotter than Hayden Panettiere but Stacy Dash snakes them both (proof and more proof).

And with those pics......
Sweet dreams
Chris!
