i'm in if we haven't separated by 2016! And if we have separated, since i'm English the new government will have long since developed secret agencies to kill me quietly and make it look like an accident.

[i]this might actually happen![/i]

Yup! Beware of "The Old Polonium in the Golf Tee Trick".

Not necessary. You can play with DP. Unless you're suggesting they should play for the Canadian WRX team?...lol.

And hopefully it would be windy as feck, surely it would impact someone 6'5" more than most

Ha!

ps: I thought we had a lot of snow. My sister-in-law sent me a picture today...oy vey.

[rymail00]

I live 15 minutes from the border. Thats to close MJ.

[MtlJeff]

i definitely want Sean on the US team. He will probably concede us putts like crazy.

"Have this one sir, you've earned it" and such

mwahahahaha, give us all your nice guys.

We will tear into them like a beaver into a maple tree

Sean2 are you publicly admitting what I think you're admitting? DP, I knew we were related : - )

[DavePelz4]

PD DP...you don't have to be dyslexic to see that.

I can see it now, MtlJeff's body found behind a casse croute, wearing a massive eff-off crucifix and a hijab.

We'll know Jeff! We'll know! We'll tell the real story!

[quote name='cdnockies']This!!!!!!

I'd even help organize this....though Bandon is the better choice for pure golf....just sayin'.[/quote]

Haha indeed, but O'Hare actually has direct flights from places like Kweebeck and the Marytimes. Eugene and North Bend, not so much

[DavePelz4]

This game looks like a Jimmy Buffet concert. Fins to the left Fins to the right...and you're going home with no bronze.

I've got the spare bedroom ready DP. I'm leaving the basement open for MtlJeff, that way I can lock the door to the upstairs at night.

[DavePelz4]

Dieu bénisse le Canada!

[PeanutsDaddy]

Merci DP

longue de golf en direct!

My French is a little spotty, but we'll 'roll with this'.

Thanks Martin. :-)

[cardoustie]

My name is Cardoustie and I fully support a Can-Am Wrx showdown

Alternating every two years at home, just like the Ryder Cup

Except we get 24 players per side

We could start next year and the US gentlemen can host us in Maui

[rymail00]

Me and MtlJeff talked about it a few years ago, and it was to be called "The Battle Of The Border"

[PeanutsDaddy]

If I make the team I want a piece of Sean2 in match-play. I don't think peanuts are poisonous to big cats, but I've heard that they can cause a horrible case of diarrhea if given in copious amounts.

The PD will be all over you Sean2. Prepare to get a case of the . . .

GRRRRRRRRR!

GO CANADA. Nice guys finish last ; )

[cardoustie]

The Canucks would be a lock in this event, and I have a backup plan if the Yanks play well

If you've seen the Gilligan's Island episode with the Russian cosmonauts and the vodka switcheroo. ... You'll know how I hatched this

Serve the American lads Canadian beers all night .. The plan is perfect in its simplicity

Nobody plays well after a night of unfamiliar elixir, and the beer farts can wear any man down (especially one favouring white shorts)

Because I'm a nice guy (geez Sean2 is rubbing off on me) my caddie will be my younger son who is 6'7", 270, a former defensive tackle. We fish up at Wollaston and he drinks Labatt Bleue Dry, which IIRC is around 6%. He can start about 8 in the morning and still be going at midnight. And...he's strong enough in the kitchen to make Poutine. BTW, if there are any eligible female "fans" in the vicinity, he'll draw them in as well. Gets that from his mother.

[martinbns]

The beer thing may not work, the guys from the Northeast will practise for weeks with copious amounts of Sam Adams Boston Lager.

[cardoustie]

We should get Crosby knighted and bring him along as our honorary captain

Sir Sidney pass me another man's beer please

[cdnrockies]

Could they have been any better?

3 goals against. Shutouts when it mattered most. This will go down as one of the greatest Canadian performances [b]ever!!![/b]

[DavePelz4]

Congrats Team Canada. Well done, again.

My mother tells me that I am super nice, but I do not wish to boast.
[/quote]

That isn't going to help your resume PD, all Canadians are super nice
[/quote]

You missed the most important part of that statement Desert Golf. We Canadians don't boast about our pleasant disposition. Don't be fooled there's a great deal of aggression below the surface of the PD.

Heck, I challenged a 6' 5" ex-marine to a golf match. He will have 'weapons of mass destruction' in his hands and we will be competing on an open expanse of land. He's got a wonky leg so if things go bad I might be able to outrun him with a head start ; )

Congratulations to the Canadian hockey team.

We would be better off naming Johnny Toews as out Captain, he makes all the other players around him better.
