Sorry dude Moscow was fast asleep with everyone else. Around the world more people watched Spurs- Bolton today. :)

Sadly Hockey is the worst performing North American game, hence why so many franchises struggle in the US.

I was dissapointed by the lack of people in the bar tonight. Infact I watched the game and my two best Canadian freinds couldn't make it for apparently good reasons.

Canadian sports passion is just not the same. Full stop.

Moscow was awake for the game. lol, yes, your bar experience must tell it all. However you are wrong on the worst performing sports in NA. They include soccer, cricket, field hockey, rugby, darts, etc.

On a sort of less related note, If David Beckham just cleared up once and for all whether Posh Spice takes it up the back alley, then he wouldn't have to go around confronting fans whom he claims are insulting his wife.

Yeah man, like Sidney Crosby is known all around the world, in China and stuff, like Tiger Woods or Michael Jordan, in fact he's known more than even Jordan or Pele or anyone of those sissies.
