July 6, 2006 at 03:37,   Nathan Muir said: Don, you just make sure that you have my money ready for me when France beats Italy on Sunday!!! and Shawn, make sure you have my beer ready for me
July 4, 2006 at 12:02,   Hailstone said: Branscombe guaranteed not to finish last. That honour goes to another team dad, Reg the Prognosticator. When ask why such a poor showing, Reg said he thought it was predictions for 2010 he was asked for.
July 4, 2006 at 11:59,   Hailstone said: Nathan, It's "Vive La France", "La" is feminine and used for countries and such. "Le" is masculine and everyone knows there's nothing masculine about the French.
July 2, 2006 at 23:35,   Nathan Muir said: VIVE LE FRANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! how about that Henry goal there Shawner??? i was hopin you would be in the restaurant for that one!!!!!!
July 2, 2006 at 20:19,   Steve Jenner said: If bored you can watch this clip and it shows Rooney stepping on the bastards nuts. http://www.youtube.com/wa tch?v=InghssMwZWI&sea rch=rooney#
July 2, 2006 at 10:53,   Hailstone said: Wow what a weekend of games. Looks like a France win can vault Nathan into a tie for first.
June 30, 2006 at 19:04,   Hailstone said: Trevor Hall is now virtually unstoppable, the best for the rest will be second place as Germany ousted Argentina.
June 29, 2006 at 02:58,   jimharvey said: In your dreams Sandy, judging from your position, I suspect it was you who copied from me.
June 28, 2006 at 19:58,   SDonaldson said: Well there is no way I can win...Jim must have copied my playoff bracket, b/c it is identical.
June 28, 2006 at 14:57,   Hailstone said: Jenner expected to return by July 8, 2006 to active roster. Several set backs to his recovery including the fact that he is out of the money in the soccer pool. With only Argentina left in the next round, its now impossible for a Jenner comeback.
June 28, 2006 at 13:25,   Hailstone said: A big game tonight seeing the return of Elbourne to the line up. Duncan, whom has been out with a severe groin tear, will be coming out to the game against the ever competitive Mexicala Rosa's squad. Several Ablion are former Mexi's members, before they saw the light and moved away from the former county squad. It should be noted that Elbourne's injury was a valid soccer injury, unlike that of Steve Jenner, who says he hurt himself "catching the dog".
June 27, 2006 at 19:00,   Hailstone said: Jenner, your right, your stock is dropping like Nortel in the nineties.
June 27, 2006 at 09:50,   Steve Jenner said: The Swiss needed to win for me to have a chance. I'm gonna drop like a rock now!
June 26, 2006 at 20:06,   Hailstone said: Jim, now your just being repetative. Its got to be the glory of sharing first place with Jenner.
June 26, 2006 at 19:49,   jimharvey said: "Branscombe finds the stairs up and out of the basement. Branscomb, though smelling damp and mildewy from his long stay in basement, was excited to see the light of day. Branscombe, who the remainder of the pool thought was liking the dark way too much, is glad to be the cellar dwellar no more. He welcomes Greg Smiley to basement and reminds him that due to his long stay, there is no longer any wine left in the cellar." WTF????

June 26, 2006 at 11:12,   Steve Jenner said: I'll see you guys on the July 8 game vs Mexicali Roses. I've got to be in Ottawa for a few days. Unfortunately I'm going to miss England vs Portugal! %^$*#!!
June 25, 2006 at 22:56,   Hailstone said: Since there`s no chance for Shawn or I to win now, we should cancel the pool. Just Kidding, good match between Holland and Portugal even if the score went the wrong way.
June 25, 2006 at 02:58,   jimharvey said: Lennon isn't starting tomorrow, a bit disappointing, but I’m not surprised. I just hope he gets a chance tomorrow; put him on the wing with Beckham behind.
June 25, 2006 at 02:51,   Steve Jenner said: Hey Beaner, sorry the Saudis couldn't pull out a couple of magical wins for you....but what the hell is broke back mountain? ..is that where you and Troy spend your holidays?
June 25, 2006 at 02:48,   jimharvey said: Jenner, the cream always rises to the top, nothing to do with dodgy Chinese TV. I'm done tomorrow though; I had Poland going through, not Ecuador. :(
June 25, 2006 at 02:20,   Chris Ayotte said: Jenner, is your back broken or are you camping on broke-back mountain...FRUITCAKE!
June 25, 2006 at 02:19,   Chris Ayotte said: Westside..Woodcocks..West side..Woodcocks.. Well done boy's, another 3 in the bag!
June 24, 2006 at 23:40,   Steve Jenner said: Hey Harvey, it looks like all those nights watching the free Chinese television feeds paid off on your football picks!! Go Lennon!! Bench Becks!!!
June 24, 2006 at 22:47,   Steve Jenner said: Hey Canadian Red, the Czech's first 11 can beat anybody, but unfortunately Koller and Baros weren't fit, and the replacement was complete crap. Nedved still bossed though. The question is more about the refereeing. The Czech's played two games a man short....look what happened to Sweden today - B.S., and then Heinze fouling like crazy but no cards...its a conspiracy!!!
June 24, 2006 at 17:14,   Chris Ayotte said: I hope everyone is watching the pounding Germany is delivering to Sweden.
June 24, 2006 at 12:02,   CanadianRed said: What happened to the Czechs, Jenner?
June 24, 2006 at 12:01,   CanadianRed said: Well,well...at the end of the first round it couldn't be closer. Trevor, Steve and Jim are all tied with Mike Dauphinee only one point behind. With tonnes of points left everyone is still in it. Well, except strikker.
June 23, 2006 at 14:38,   Hailstone said: Jim, you must have found an elevator. Wow, from the bottom to the top.
June 21, 2006 at 13:32,   Hailstone said: On Saturday June 24, 2006, immediately following our game, we will be having an intervention for Shawn Langille who clearly has an addiction to Steven Gerard, as well as to Barcardi Breezers. We hope, that as a team, we can all help Shawn to overcome his unhealthy obsession with Gerard. We ask that everyone bring pictures of other great soccer players in order to help Shawn transition into a normal and healthy soccer fan.
June 21, 2006 at 02:41,   CanadianRed said: I seem to be missing a fruity drink. Don, did you take it. Don't make me search your deer blind. Does HRM allow deer hunting in Wedgewood?
June 21, 2006 at 02:40,   CanadianRed said: God has scored again. Who needs Roonaldo when Stevie G is on the park. Alumitech will see the wrath of the number 8 on Saturday.
June 20, 2006 at 23:45,   Steve Jenner said: Yes Don, I'm here to stay....but only if Czech Rep beats Italy this Thursday!!
June 20, 2006 at 22:43,   Hailstone said: Jenner jumps bean, in the pool that is. Recent king of the pool Chris Ayotte has been dethroned by Steve Jenner. Jenner believes that he will stay on top of the pool for the rest of tourney due to his soccer knowledge, stunning soccer moves and long locks of hair.
June 20, 2006 at 16:59,   Hailstone said: Drinking no, but I do believe I laundered some money. I may need another check from you, given the bank won't accept the little ball of paper that used to be a check.
June 20, 2006 at 16:49,   Steve Jenner said: I guess this is what happens to the mind after too much time alone in a deer blind.
June 20, 2006 at 16:12,   jimharvey said: Have you been drinking Don??
June 20, 2006 at 14:32,   Hailstone said: Subway introduces the Albion sub. The test market in Bridgewater, NS found it very hard to swallow!
June 19, 2006 at 20:15,   Hailstone said: Bar fight? There was no bar fight. Really, there was no fight at a bar or even outside of one for that matter.
June 19, 2006 at 19:30,   jimharvey said: Was there are bar fight?? Details please. Don, please take note of where you are in relation to myself in the standings.
June 19, 2006 at 17:23,   Hailstone said: No Langille is a closet fruity drink drinker, and didn’t leave the hotel. Though it did take several drinks and lots of bottle cap prying before he realized there was a bottle opener in the room.
June 19, 2006 at 17:18,   Steve Jenner said: Langille was drinking red, fruity drinks in a redneck bar? I can see now how the fight started.
June 19, 2006 at 17:01,   Hailstone said: ram·bling [ rámb'ling ]Definition: not to point: continuing for too long and with many changes of subject
June 19, 2006 at 16:58,   Hailstone said: Since you asked Steve, lets just say the color RED prevailed heavily this weekend. Red is hot. It's a strong color that conjures up a range of seemingly conflicting emotions from passionate and love to violence and warfare. Red is Cupid and the Devil. Red is also the color of blood, fire and danger; however, unfortunately red is also the color of ejections, anger, and bloodshot eyes. Red is strangely also the color of the fruity drinks Langille was drinking Saturday night.
June 19, 2006 at 16:18,   Steve Jenner said: Hey Don, Baros will play injured and help the Czechs beat the WOPs (no offense to any WOPs out there). You didn't mention soccer in your ramblings...did you win the tournament?
June 19, 2006 at 13:59,   Hailstone said: Jenners return to active roster may be delayed as he has reinjured his back trying to kick himself in the ass for picking the Czech Republic.
June 19, 2006 at 12:05,   Hailstone said: Incidents of referee abuse and dissent in the South Shore District Soccer Association are up 240% after the weekend. Use of the word “jackass” also up. Local officials are confident both will be down since they heard Langille and Hailstone checked out of the hotel early Sunday morning.
June 19, 2006 at 11:58,   Hailstone said: World Cup soccer hooliganisms overflowed the European continent this weekend and reach the shores of North America. Local residents witnessed a brawl at a local eating establishment. A patron quoted as saying, “ All I wanted was a sub, but all I got was a knuckle sandwich”
June 19, 2006 at 11:52,   Hailstone said: Royalty descended on the sleepy little town of Bridgewater as Beaner, the king of the soccer pool, presence was felt. The reining monarch of this pool was in his regal glory snacking on a sandwich in uptown Bridgewater, when the local constabulary recognized the monarch, and offered a police escort to his royal highness. The female constable seemed quite awestruck to see such a dignitary out and about with the people.
