Ha, it seems Brett Hull is not actually an American. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Iron_Ranger 10-28-2002 09:52 PM

Yeah he was born in Ontario. In all honesty, I dont know why he claims to be an American. Was Bobby Hull an american? Ah well, I certaintly dont mind it :D

True_Moose 10-28-2002 09:54 PM

The actual story is that Dave King passed him over for one of the Canada Cup teams, and since his mom was American, and they offered him a position, he played for 'em. ;)

Will every Canadian please pm me that I may individually e-mail you and proclaim that the Northern Lights is just the gleam from your smile and that clean streets are next to godliness. Really; I think all Canadians are "special". http://smilies.networkessence.net/otn/love/1luvu.gif
*sigh* I'm going to need more Canadian beer.

Iron_Ranger 10-28-2002 09:57 PM

Yeah I figured it was something like that. Nice to have him aboard. Too bad he doesnt play for the Stars anymore, that ruled :(

There's a reason that we call states we don't like "the Canada of the Union." (mostly referring to states that have little to see when you drive through them save for flat, brown land, and a town every hour or so). Ok, joking aside, the reasons Canada is so great:
1.) better Casino
2.) three words: The Beer Store
3.) "foreign" women
4.) awesome camping grounds (area around Bancroft being my favorite)

And two things I dislike:
1.) pountine?
2.) sweet-tasting ketchup
