Yes I did and thought about quoting it, but I don't think that everyone bothers to refresh through this entire thread and since then, the new Survivors series has been aired on the BBCCA channel. Hoping that someone else had latched onto this series since it had been revived.Robbie wrote:You already asked that question on Wed Sep 27, 2006 3:11 am at:Rammer wrote:Doesn't anyone remember the series of Survivors on in the 70's from BBC?

Since no one answered, then apparently no one has seen that series.
Who remembers...

that stone faced young soldier who stood like a statue while a first nations "activist" was taunting and yelling in his face, in quebec. Forgot the name of the place.
wonder what ever happened to that soldier. Some tv shows should do a human interest story on him.

Are you taking about the Oka crisis and the guy in that photo, and the guy who took the photo who both recently died separately within a very short period of time (same day even, I think)? Sorry, really rusty on the details now.KnowItAll wrote:that stone faced young soldier who stood like a statue while a first nations "activist" was taunting and yelling in his face, in quebec.

Off to wikipedia... okay, scratch the above... if this is the guy you're talking about and the info is correct, he did some
(a) coke,
(b) time in military prison,
(c) bodily harm while DUI,
(d) porn
and then after all that he apparently left Canada about a decade ago.
How's that for some great Norman Rockwell imagery?

Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.
yeah, dat him. I half expected a story like that. Aint it the way it seems to go. Sometimes ya get rick hansen and sometimes ya get steve fonyo.sj-roc wrote:Are you taking about the Oka crisis and the guy in that photo, and the guy who took the photo who both recently died separately within a very short period of time (same day even, I think)?

Who remembers it was exactly 24 years ago today, January 28, 1986, when a tragic event occurred that struck the world. The Space Shuttle Challenger exploded 73 seconds after liftoff.

And that night, President Reagan was supposed to give his State of the Union address. Instead, he gave this statement.

祝加拿大加式足球聯賽不列颠哥伦比亚卑詩雄獅隊今年贏格雷杯冠軍。此外祝溫哥華加人隊贏總統獎座·卡雲斯·甘保杯·史丹利盃。還每年祝溫哥華白頭浪隊贏美國足球大联盟杯。不要忘記每年祝溫哥華巨人贏西部冰球聯盟冠軍。
改建後的卑詩體育館於二十十一年九月三十日重新對外開放,首場體育活動為同日舉行的加拿大足球聯賽賽事,由主場的卑詩雄獅隊以三十三比二十四擊敗愛民頓愛斯基摩人隊。
祝你龍年行大運。
恭喜西雅图海鹰直到第四十八屆超級盃最終四十三比八大勝曾拿下兩次超級盃冠軍的丹佛野馬拿下隊史第一個超級盃冠軍。

I remember that date all too well. A tragic event in the space program.
Yep you are going to be hitting a milestone pretty soon, especially if you recall those days of hockey.Lionheart wrote:I do. Dam you
For those of us who saw them live I say dam you and thank you for the age reminder.

Or how about when hockey goaltenders wore full plastic masks? That was not too long ago in the early 1980's.Rammer wrote:Who remembers goalies without masks playing in the NHL?
While they didn't provide much protection compared to the cage masks, they were definitely very decorative.
I think the last Canuck goaltender to wear a full plastic mask was John Garrett.

Who remembers when Olympic athletes got caught for cheating? You can't tell me that the two Russians that did the cross country ski racing weren't given something "extra" to be that far ahead of the pack on the short course.....

Wasn't that pre-Oly's? Also didn't the Russians send their dopers anyways?Lionheart wrote:Actually Rammer they've already caught about 30 (and many of them Russians) so purrhaps a couple got through the cracks? I know there is no way to detect growth hormone yet.
