GJG. Will try to make the first period but the rest of the game doubtful. Need my "beauty" sleep. Ahem.

I should go back and watch Three's Company again. I think I understood it pretty well when I was really young, but I'm certain I missed a lot of the jokes. Had a Suzanne Somers poster on my wall as a kid - wasn't allowed to have the Farrah poster - too pointy.
Feel free to sleep in until at least noon :sarcasm:

He's 37 and you might find this interesting:


Not that tonight's game is any bigger than that delightful beating of the Wild.
Pretty sure the girlfriends/wives aren't brought along on the road with them.... oh wait...!?! 😉🤣

Interesting story from the past, Jets 1.0 in the early to mid 1990's.

I had a buddy that knew a girl here, she was about 21-22 at the time and was a "companion" of a very well known, very married Pittsburgh Penguins player. He paid for her university and her apartment here in Winnipeg. She was aware that he had other companions in other NHL cities and didn't seem too concerned about it.

I suspect this goes on much less today in an era where no one can hide from anyone, but back then...?

Yes, a bunch of stories went around about her, maybe 92-93?

I suspect the sugar daddy thing is more common now cause it's easier to set up with soc media but probly not for athletes cause there under more attention.

So Kopitar, their leader scorer must be approaching 40 by now. Hopefully boys avoided LA nightlife last night and went to bed early to prepare.
LA nightlife is overstated, 99% of the local population stays home for board game nights or Zoom parties (so I’m told).

No one wants to be caught in the gridlock and chaos of those crazy freeways!

I go to LA alot and the bars and restaurants are usually full. One thing about the freeways is you have to press the gas pedal unlike here where most press their brake pedal more than the gas.:laugh:

The way most Winnipeggers drive they would be road kill within a day on a California freeway.

Yup...

I especially like the outer fast lane slide to the next exit 300 yards out...

The perpatrator doing 100 plus mph down to a 70 to 60 to the exit cutting right across me and 4 other lanes...

A Phoenix... LA... Special by my experience...

Everyone thinks they are Dom'....
