    How long have you been saving that?

    Revenge is a dish best served cold: You’ll get yours tomorrow…

    I believe we came back and won that game; but, yeah… I got pwned on that breakaway!

    You know, I just found out about that one last night! It was awesome though cause I actually remember watching that game on TV when I was in jr high and my Dad and I laughing uncontrollably at “that poor goalie, I’ll bet he’ll never live it down!”

    Little did I know that I would get to be the one to never let him live it down!!! BOOYA!

    Man, I’m not really familiar with hockey… but I’m pretty sure nobody’s supposed to be sitting around on the ice, right? That poor schmuck looked like my 4 yo at her first soccer practice….

    What? That was Scott?

    Err… Umm….

    Well, whoever the goalie is, he may as well have been a 5 year old playing T-Ball, sitting out in left field picking dandelions, waving at his mommy while the ball rolls by him.

    Touche. Well played, sir.

    (I hate it when they pull out the “Oh yeah? Well at least I was a professional X!” card… Like how Jake could win if we were discussing male prostitution….)

    Bure using the skate. Have to say that was a good looking goal. Sorry dude.

    If I judge my pro hockey career in regards to how many times I look like a tool on classic highlight reels…

    Then I’d say I’ve not done too badly.

    Brian, that was the second biggest burn in this comment thread. Preceded only by my friend Pavel up there.

    And judging by some of the other youtube video’s that I’ve apparently been putting up on this blog, you might want to add “obese” into that title as well.

    [Scott: Goalies get scored on. Goalies get nice goals scored on them. Some of them are even highlight reel goals. it goes with the territory. However, we also make saves. Fortunately, I made more saves than let in goals so people paid me money to do it for a number of years. Silly really. But to use the language of tool and to characterize everything under one goal in a pre-season game might be a tad over the top. Wait... make that a mountain over the top. How was the junior career? What round did you get drafted in? How many professional contracts did you sign? How many games did you play?]

    Dang, Scott… getting a little testy, huh?

    I admit, even if Jake won’t, that it’s gotta be tough having several years’ worth of your life preserved for posterity. I mean, it’s not like highlight reels from “The Best Damn Third Party Welding Inspector Show Period” would tend to sell a lot of advertising.

    (Of course, that’d prolly be more interesting than those from “The Wide World of Worship Leaders”)

    :)
