Footballvids: Man Utd 3-1 Arsenal →
footballvids:
What is Wenger thinking playing such a high line against Man Utd?
Arsenal’s defence is shocking
Carl Jenkinson shouldn’t even be in the Premier League
Young and Rooney’s goals were unstoppable
Welbeck’s goal is the kind of goal you would concede in the play ground
De Gea - although he has…
Spot on. Few more Arsenal players could be put alongside Jenkinson’s name...

UBC student apologizes for role in Vancouver riot,... →
vanmega:
Ahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaa. A couple of choice pull quotes:
At the time, being a part of the riot was simply to fulfill the adrenaline rush I was looking and hoping for – an adrenaline rush that I previously got from post-winning games: hugging randoms, dancing on the streets, honking car horns non-stop, and high-fiving just about everybody.
Totally, gurl. I...

Tim,
Just because you can string an apologetic sentence together does not mean you are sorry. Perhaps I should make you aware of the consequences of your action. To you, it’s just an overturned car that you set...
vanmega.com: Downtown Vancouver as of 3:05PM →
vanmega:
My office is on West Georgia, about 2 blocks from the CBC building. Things are getting nuts. Highlights include, but are no limited to:
Cheering which can be heard 12 floors about ground every 30 seconds
Bars lined up out the door since 2pm
A sea of blue all travelling north then east down…
Don’t know how this city is not going to spontaneously combust, win or lose,...
I think it’s fair to say there is more excitement for the Finals here in Vancouver than there was for the Olympic Gold Medal game. And that’s saying something.

CBC: North Vancouver man denied life-saving drug →
Beyond the sickening ethical considerations, why the hell would a pharmaceutical spend all the R&D money, bother to get FDA approval and then charge $500K/year for a drug. Who do they think is going to pay that? Individuals can’t afford it and there’s not many insurance companies that won’t have an addendum in their policies striking it off the list of available options....

dearkate:
This past Christmas I received “The Ultimate Book of Sports Movies.” It is a book of the top 100 sports movies with interesting facts and fun tidbits. I decided to watch (or rewatch for the millionth time) all 100 films. Here is the list (PS: I do not condone the fact that Field of Dreams is not…
List is of course missing The Two Escobars, Gol: the 1982 World Cup (narrated by...

New song and tour from Okkervil River →
Always good news. Hitting Vancouver in June with Titus Andronicus who are almost as groovy and considerably heavier. Interesting to see how much of the Commodore they fill given Okkervil River played Richards on Richards last time they were here I believe.
30 Days of Music- Least favourite song (Day 2)
I’ve never gotten over the shock of what Rod Steward did to Downtown Train. Tom Waits must still recoil every time a royalty check comes in from that steaming turf of a cover. Refuse to validate it with a link.
