My pleasure, CS. btw, the architect was Eberhard Zeidler--Ericq's comment made me realize I'd omitted that rather crucial detail!...

If it makes anyone feel any better, a striking TTC is infinitely better than a fully operational Calgary Transit......

Why wouldn't he get better? He certainly did last year; what could've possibly happened during the offseason that would suddenly make Frank Thomas "done?" I still maintain it was largely a knee-jerk r...

I was in awe when I found that. It might be the single greatest contribution to Flickr ever....

I can't decide if it's go Minnesota or go Calgary; it's probably one of those two, but I'll figure I'll wait til the playoffs begin and then jump on whichever bandwagon seems destined to go the furthe...

Weird: I was in Ottawa on Saturday for my friend's wedding, and our limo to the ceremony (yeah, yeah, I know) got stuck in an anti-Scientology protest...this, mere hours after my friend was late for o...

That's a fair point, nOwak, and it begs a follow-up question: as a fan, would you rather your team tank (which, in this case, would involve a heavy dosage of Andrew Raycroft) or would you rather they ...

Take this with a grain of salt, but I *believe* the "Fire Peddie" petition had exponentially more signatures than a similar, "Fire JFJ" petition. It's still a mess down at MLSE, no matter who's the GM...

That's an interesting point re: the International Bowl and the NFL's (probable) arrival in Toronto. To me, it seemed like the NFL was looming over this weekend's Grey Cup coverage; if the media wasn't...

I don't know much, but I *do* know one thing: my sensitivities aren't too refined for anything, particularly hockey. Again: if people don't think Mats Sundin is a good hockey player, fine. But I do ha...

Thanks for the comments, everyone. Some of 'em got me thinking, and I wanted to clarify/elaborate on a few things: 1. This wasn't an excuse to rip the Toronto Sun, which (as noted) is way too easy to...
