Sadly, they (mostly) stopped knocking teeth out in the ‘70s. While I sympathize with those who lost teeth, hockey was a lot more exciting back in those days...
Nice!My priest’s son now works for the LA Kings coincidentally!
Nice!
(I grew up in Canada - liking hockey is almost mandatory)
Try watching cricketwatching baseball bores me out of my mind
Try watching cricket
It's kind of like baseball with two bases.
Wow, Gurney.
That is aWORLD-CLASS thread derail if I ever saw one!!!!
watching baseball bores me out of my mind
If you weren’t my buddy I’d have you deported for such madness!!
make baseball more exciting and we won't have a problem.
It’s like asking to speed up chess because all that dang thinking and strategy ain’t excitin’ enough!? Baseball isn’t meant to be fast-paced.
If you can handle the Pentecost Liturgy and Great Lent, baseball is nothing!
Pentecost, Great Lent, and chess aren't sports. big difference.
They’re not!? No wonder people were looking at me oddly when I showed up to those Liturgies wearing a helmet, shin guards, cleats, and knee pads!
yeah, that would be a sight to behold.
baseball is still boring.
you talk to Father about becoming a reader yet?
No and no.
just checking.
Today Father had a kid read when the other kid who was set to read was already there? I couldn't figure it out. I say "kid," when the "kid" who read was around 27-28 LOL. Anyway, it went pretty badly. He doesn't have the voice for it. We just can't find people who can read worth a darn. Even our tonsured Reader is so-so. The other guy has a tiny, mousey voice. The young guy today read like a speed reader with no intonation, no chanting. It was rough.
I'd read every single Sunday if Father would let me. I'm just super freaked out about asking. But then again, I've told you that. Way too intimidating for me to ask.
