Canada just lost the gold medal game against the Czech Republic (3-0) and what do they do? Yes, they start a fist fight. As usual. It's bad enough to show a sore loser attitude verbally; starting fights is ridiculous. Why do they always disgrace themselves this way? Everybody thinks it's childish. Do they really want to continue to be viewed this way internationally?

The Americans are usually the ones that are known for being arrogant and sore losers, but when it comes to hockey the Canadians are worse. Every team in the world wants to beat them, not because they're good but because of their attitude.

I live in Canada and feel a great love for this country. When I talk to Europeans I feel proud to say that Canadians usually lack the typical bad characteristics of Europeans and Americans and have found a good middle road. So why Canada, why do you have to ruin this image by behaving so badly in what you're perhaps best known for internationally?

If I gave a rat's ass about hockey, I'd agree with you.

My Mother is european, are you saying she has `bad characteristics`? She's unwell right now and if she knew you said that about her it would kill her.

European here
I demand an apology

fifth!

oh, and apologise.

Hockey is dead anyway.

I'm from Europe too and I'm definitely not going to apologize. What's the matter with you guys? Don't you think you have any bad characteristics? North America-bashing has become a hobby for many Europeans. It's time you start thinking about your English snobbery, Swedish dullness, Italian vanity etc etc. And don't even tempt me to bring up the German sense of humour.

I agreee! They're all rubbish!

retina said:

We English have no bad characteristics whatsoever, don't you know. We are practically perfect hin hevery way.

My sideburns are curlier than my hair. Like pubes.

Number23 said:

are your pubes like sideburns?

doctormcmeekle said:

and Scottish mental illness - don't forget that one, retina.

doctormcmeekle said:

So where are you from then?

TheFrogSpawn said:

Mm. Sort of. My pubes sjine with vitality though, and my sideburns are a bit dull looking. With blonde hair, you can see dullness easier, it's hard to maintain. Ask Mike Mills.

TheFrogSpawn said:

Ah, there you go.

TheFrogSpawn said:

Reminds me of a story about Andy Goram. Playing after revelations about his schizophrenia, the crowd chanted "There's only two Andy Goram's...."

Number23 said:

Why does Mike Mills know your sideburns are duller than your pubes?

doctormcmeekle said:

Number23 said:

that was a slightly more in-depth answer than i was expecting, to be honest. Is there a post-graduate course in your pubes?

doctormcmeekle said:

It's like Nixon's government giving James Brown bull's testicles because they felt he was too funky for normal ones.

retina said:

Spaniards rule
And where are you from?

Number23 said:

Aah! Now I understand!

Greece gave America their democracy which they feel they have to misuse now so we can critisise all we want

doctormcmeekle said:

They're helping him. Those aren't real specticles.

Spaniards are smelly and lazy.

I'm from Sweden and thereby already included in the list.

Tampa had the Stanley a couple of years ago, after the canadians relentless teased us.

If your hand causes you scandal, cut if off!
If your sideburns are curlier than your hair, cut if all off!

PANDURITO said:

My picture's in my profile. Would you cut off such a wonderful head of hair?

i vote this thread most offensive thread of the year!
