cos of the NFL thread...

Any fans?

For the first tiem in the while, my team of choice, the Sabres are doing quite well. Second in the overall league, top in our conference. Only a few points behind the Rangers who ahve played 11 games while we've only played 8, 9 once we play Ottawa Senators tonight; should be an easy win!

Also got top goal scorer Tomas Vanek, as well as top GAA and 2nd save percentage goalie Miller on the roster.

I also watch a bit of NHL.

I support the red wings, don't hate me though. Have done since I went to America as a young un and bought a bit of their merchandise. I believe we are 6 - 1 - 1 just now. So, good times.

Speaking of which I was going to order a new shirt but it cost me a fortune when I had to pay import tax on my NFL shirt and they come from the same place in America and im not doing that again. Anyone know any Europe based stores?

I love NHL. I support the Vancouver Canucks. They aren't doing so well this season

I haven't followed it properly for a few years really, but i still keep an eye on the results and stuff.

I did some research. Thistle Sports by any chance? Did they have a wide range of tops and was this long ago?

I think there's another sports shop on Rose Street other than Thistle. I can't remember its name either.

It's not thistle, im pretty sure it has skate in the title. Ill try and locate the name.

Edit: Can't seem to find it on the net. Best bet is to have a walk up Rose street and see if it's still there. Was quite up if i remember. About as far up as the all night bakery is on Chapel street. This is if it is still open. Doing my head in trying to remember the name of it.

Edit II: It could be 'Abskate' or that might have been the skateboard shop that used to be on Rosemount. This is all so long ago i am struggling to tell them apart.

I watch the NHL games all the time on NASN channel.

Love it.

Am in a fantasy league too.... mid table obscurity for now.

I eat my words. Buffalo got humped 5-2 by Ottawa last night. How the fuck that happened is beyond me. First loss in regulation time this season against a team that was in the bottom 5 prior to that game.

Fuck sake.

The Calgary Flames are my team of choice, having started to support them back in the days of when the only team that Tampa Bay could beat was us. A hatred for the Lightning then started, which wasn't made any better by the absolutely heart-breaking loss to them in the Stanley Cup Finals

I still wish Khabibulin all the worst to this day.

We've not had a great start to the season, but Calgary rarely do - and it doesn't help that the Northwest Divison is usually ridiculously close anyway.
