Buy booze, get free hockey tickets
Nice marketing coming from the Phoenix Coyotes - buy a 1.75 litres of Smirnoff vodka and get a free ticket. No word on if you can bring the booze to the game. Shocking that a man with Polish roots like Wayne Gretzky would be pushing a Russian product...a report out of England says that 50% Liverpool owner and Montreal Canadiens owner George Gillett will be divesting himself of the Canadiens. Seems unlikely the classy Gillett would let that information leak in the Habs 100th year, but that ship seems riddled with holes of late so hard to say...it amazes me that Terrell Owens not going to voluntary camp is even a story. He never has. And if you look at the guy, a camp where you only work out is more for other guys, not for a guy who looks like he was cut from granite. Of course, the fact he's getting a public service award will not get national media play (thanks to TS for that one)..there is talk that the Buffalo Bills will be having a second regular season game in Toronto this year. Why? It isn't like the first was a roaring success unless you guage that by disgruntled fans overpaying for everything...within 48 hours of being granted an MLS franchise, the Vancouver Whitecaps took deposits for 5,000 season tickets. Amazing. More amazing is that the 'caps will be playing in BC Place and making it look spectacular, thanks to $365 million in renovations. Check this rendering out...like a parent to a child, the New York Yankees have given A-Rod a serious talking-to about not being a distraction and focusing on baseball alone. Good luck with that. Sounds like A-Rod could be back soon, with some talk he's just days away from playing. My fantasy squad thanks you, A-Rod...wow, I pick Duke's ladies hoops team and out they go. I'm the kiss of death. The Duke men's hoops team best beware...hard as it may be to believe, but the Houston Rockets are a half game out of second in the very tough NBA West...Jerry Jones wouldn't trade quarterback Tony Romo for "anybody". It is that kind of thinking that has the Cowboys sans a playoff win in over a decade...have a great Tuesday. Back with another PTP death lock later as I look to curse teams I hate. Can't believe how tough this has been when I lit up the NFL Prime Time games all season.

Belvedere and other polish brands are just too good to be associated with the Coyotes. Besides, they are more expensive as well, the fans wouldn't feel they would get a fair deal out of it...
Is that TFC vs Cap's Uniforms used in the rendition?
So how about FIFA and UEFA's answer to WADA yesterday?
Nevermind, didn't see the scoreboard before now...
Missed that answer...what happened?
YF, if you're reading, I hear that the International Soccer forum was dumped at Red Patch Boys. Surely there is a story there...let's have it!
This Italian user posted an article from an Italian newspaper where Rio Ferdinand called Italian club football "toothless kittens"
The United boys (me and some others) defended Rio. The Italian started saying shit about United. Anyways we stayed quiet. After all 3 Italian clubs were eliminated in CL. We started sounding off on the italians laughing at all of them.
The 2 italians fought back and basically it cooled off by the night. The fuckin guy wakes up at like 4am and starts a thread about how AC Milan is better than United and calls us internet tough guys and blah blah. The mod team. shut down the whole section saying that us United supporters cause all sorts of shit and we arent there for TFC and we're internet tough guys.
Ahhh well Im heading down to Columbus this weekend with 3 of them (one a border guard) it shall be interesting to see how many of them come up to us. Stay tuned.

Hmm, not in the links, but also some rumours about IOC potentially throwing soccer out of the Olympic games!
Typical stuff, YF...too funny.
