Michael Owen and Wayne Rooney were reported to be walking through the local village while practicing in Spain for the upcoming Euro qualifiers. They came across a very attractive prostitute so Owen asked her how much for a little wank...Rooney said "don't worry about the little wank, how much for a real football superstar?"
 
 Add Barcelona, AC Milan and Inter Milan to the list of teams bidding on Beckham....Kenyon is reported to say any offer over 30 million pounds would have to be considered "it would be remiss of us not to" Kenyon said. Meanwhile, other reports suggest United are close to signing Rohnaldino from PSG and Tom Howard, the goalie from NY/NJ Metrostars.

I know, I am just bitter because he broke up Hull (HULL not Hall) and Oates in St. Louis.

You forgot the best face-off man of all time.   Show some respect.

I'd have to say that was Dale Hunter IMHO!

Hunter was very good as well, but I prefer Oatesy.  IMHO.

A quality comparison.  I didn't get to see him very much growing up in LA (once a twice a year and then maybe in the playoffs), but when I moved out here, just instantly appreciated him.  Boy did that guy ever deserve to hoist the cup.  If you don't have an affection for the Devils, how could you not be rooting for Oatesy and Thomas to hoist the cup this year?

I'm totally for the duckies! Although that name!!!   :eek:  
 
 Hunter deserved to raise Lord Stanley's goblet every bit as much as Ray Bourke. At least Bourke got to do it.

Was this your attempt at humor ( humour in the Motherland)?  Ha,ha,ha,ha,ha,ha,ha...... You crack me up Mankie.  Please, no more.  My gut is busting already!

Hunter was a classless player, his hit on Turgeon was criminal.. I can't think of 2 less deserving of a cup than Oates and Hunter.  Well maybe Keith Tkachuk.
