Ahhhh the Shanny, Janney, Nelly days ...

… back when Nelly wasn’t a reference to a bad “rapper.”

I actually have a Nelson Emerson jersey from the era of the red, yellow and blue stripes/logo. All you need to do is get the letters stitched on it. The “7” is already there.

Guys can again start talking about a BJ without their girl getting pissed off.

Fans starting to look into 2nd and 3rd jobs to save up for their $9 beers.

People already calling into talk radio complaining about Jackman’s play and who to trade him for.

SMS

Yeah was there when it was SMS and when they had the name change to MSU. Basketball and their hockey team got me through the lockout.

MSU Hockey

Is what sustained me through hockey since trips to STL weren’t always possible. I still try to make back to Springfield for MSU-Mizzou games.

I’m hoping that they can get back together in Webster Groves the day after Thanksgiving. I had a blast two years ago watching the Ice Bears stomp on some frozen kitties. Last year’s game was cancelled (ice problems?), but I hope to see this game continue.

Are you sure that the absence of Molson

isn’t just because no one really drinks it?

by Busch Ice on Sep 11, 2009 1:06 PM CDT reply actions

I was thinking

Labatt Blue is SHITLOADS better.

One day, David Backes and Albert Pujols will combine forces to become the most awesome piece of violent force known to man.

Having been to Toronto ...

… Labatt is viewed as their Natural Light/Pabst/Milwaukee’s Best/Hamm’s shitty beer.

Molson Canadian is where it’s at. Not the Molson Golden, which I find usually ends up being skunky and gross. Molson Canadian is the shit, though!

The first case of beer I ever bought was Labatt Blue

Wuz in Kingston Ontario at hockey school, circa 73 maybe. I was 13 and no way could I buy beer in STL but in Canada eh, cmon mon amies

I handed over my American dollars to the fine clerk and pointed to the case I wanted on the wall. Out rolled the golden nectar on a conveyor belt, the kind with all the wheels. We had snuck out from the dorm for some late night fun and went down to the nearby river to enjoy a few cold pops. When done we stashed the remaining beer in the river and went back to the dorm.

The next night we returned to finish off the brew and found the rope we had used to keep the beer cold in the river was cut. We looked around and there was a bum passed out about 30 feet away under a tree. He finally fessed up to seeing us stash it and clipping our beer. On the was back to the dorm all bummed out we almost got run over by a train crossing a trestle over the river. We had to jump in the river to avoid getting smooshed. God’s way of telling us to get our azzes back to the dorm I guess.
