Silver may be the best overall pro league leader out there.

Love to see this team win 8 of its last 10 (including last 3-4 games) so the young guys end on a good note.

We would still finish last, but at least 'winning last'. That makes for more hope and better feelings over the off season. (opposed top moping around all summer wanting out)

Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Haha, no game is a bad game with free beer.

I'd vote for this.

Chuck - if you finish below .500, no ticket price increase the following season

Love Chuck! He's so right about this and just reminds how terrible ownership is in Vancouver. I used to be less concerned in the past because I just felt they were impatient (they always spent to the cap so I could never fault them for that) but as the years build, the stench gets worse. Vancouver should be a destination city. With proper ownership and management it could be again.
