The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.
I don't follow basketball at all, but saw this headline and thought it was damn impressive.
Miami Heat star Bam Adebayo scores 83 points in 150-129 win over Washington Wizards, marking second-highest scoring effort in NBA history after the late Wilt Chamberlain's 100-point game from 1962
Initial reports indicated that police were unable to explain how Webber was able to drive a car or use a firearm, but a little searching answered those questions immediately, because Webber uploaded his own videos to YouTube showing off his ability to use a firearm.
F1 Japanese Gran Prix at Suzuka, one of the driver's favourite track for its fast flowing corners ... until this year in the cars of the latest regulations.
Corner 130R, usually a balls to the wall flat out test of driving nerve, now the four time World Champ is loosing nearly 60km/h while going flat out because the battery unit on the 50/50 hybrid 1.5l V6 power unit has run out of energy and needs needs recharging so the computers shift V6 power to the charging unit. He goes from 1000hp to less than 500hp.
Two weeks ago at the Chinese GP in Shanghai, a Ferrari driver has a bit of a slide, lifted to 95% power, the computer gave him full power down the subsequent short straight but the battery was dead for the long straight 30 seconds later in the lap. If he'd only lifted to 98% he wouldn't have had an issue.
Most cars on the grid are starting the race with zero battery power because they have used it warm their tires on the formation lap. F1 has added a 5 second light before the start so drivers can spool up their turbos so the can at least get off the line without stalling.
Drivers are calling it Mario Cart and can be heard on the radio asking for mushrooms power.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.
I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.
