    This has made me think about making a list . Better still a globe with stickers on where I have been.

    I've been lucky in past years to see pj in loads of countries and spend a day after or before going on city tours. I love Ireland both north and south. I love Holland and Norway. 
    Berlin is always a place I like to be. 
    I want to see some of the Balkan countries if I ever travel again which i doubt now im too ill for it anymore.
    In  GB wales and Scotland have some amazing landscape. 
    Ireland I would say is where I've loved
    I ve been to Ireland three times and I must agree with you.  Such a fantastic place and definitely the nicest people I have ever met. Sorry to hear you are still ill. Maybe a few more ice cubes in your wine will make you feel better. ;)
    If I see the summer I will try it again..thanks.
    I did a bus tour of Belfast and it was chilling as it's history of my lifetime. But I recently  went to Kerry . The dingle peninsula  with my daughter to see Glen and marketa in a small tent in the middle of nowhere and it was heaven for me. I felt like i had gone home.
    Have you hit up the giants causeway and the bush mills distillery?  Northern Ireland is awesome.
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    In Canada, we usually get a couple CFL games.  Might as well watch US high school football over the CFL.
    I bet to differ. CFL is a really good game.
    Ok, you just crossed a line

    Just stop lol

    take away the production values of the NFL. CFL game is better. and I'm not saying that as a canadian. I'm saying that as a moderate football fan. CFL keeps my attentin. NFL does not.

    I honestly believe a lot of people are mesmerized by the production of the show, not the game itself.

    I don't know. I mean... that Detroit/Chicago game was absolutely thrilling.

    If you watch Tennessee, Detroit, Oakland, Denver, Baltimore, San Fran, Arizona, Jacksonville, Buffalo, NY Jets, or Miami... prepare to fall asleep.

    There are some other teams that are boring as hell too, but at least they have some star power.

    You must have missed the Rams vs KC Monday night...

    Detroit V Chicago on Turkey Day.

    RedSkins v Cowboys was good for 3 quarters...

    again, I'm not talking about the talent of the teams. there is no denying the superiority over the CFL there. I don't like the pace of the NFL game. it moves too slow. some of the rules I find incredibly stupid. I mean, for one, the game can be, and is often, over at the 2 minute warning. that is absolutely mind bogglingly stupid. the thrill of watching a team come back in the CFL at the buzzer is amazing. 

    fair catch. also dumb. "no yards" is way better. you get action on every punt/kickoff. NFL is always just "fair catch", nothing happens, walk off the field. it's only exciting if the dope drops the ball. 

    4 downs. how fucking hard is it to get a first down with 4 downs? if you can afford to waste one of your downs to stop the clock, you have too many downs.

    I wasn't necessarily disagreeing with you in the post I quoted and responded to. Even with the clump of shit teams, I still like the NFL better than the CFL; however, I would never discredit the CFL as being bush league- it can be wildly entertaining.

    Hugh - you are sounding like an idiot. CFL is no where near as good as the NFL. And the talent on the defensive side is why it takes more downs to get a first down. They aren’t playing against scrubs like the cfl.

    jesus, dude. WTF is wrong with you lately?
    You seriously offended by that? It seems like you were having a barroom discussion about this...jesus this place is a fucking shithole anymore.

    here you go high:

    Sir, I believe you are mistaken. While you poke fun at the NFL for its rule allowing a team 4 downs to get 10 yards (vs in CFL 3 downs to get 15 yards), you are neglecting to fully realize the entire situation. The nfl athletes are far superior, especially on the defensive side. Thus, while it’s fewer yards and more downs, when you include all factors, it is actually more difficult to achieve. Good day.

    yeah, generally when people call me an idiot, it perks my ears up a bit. guess that's just me anymore. 

    it's not fewer yards. it's 10 yards in the CFL. 

    I already acknowledged the superiority of the athletes. I was talking about PACE OF GAME. I guess you didn't read that part that I very specific about. 

    good day anymore.

    You talked specifically about 4 downs vs 3. The only
    point I was trying to have a lighthearted discussion about. 

    You want me to cover how you are wrong on most accounts?
