Blah, you're unable to deal with our juniors. They beat your asses again, like they did during previous championship. Your hockey has no future.

Eh, it's more complex.

Part of the reason Canada's junior teams aren't that great is a rule specific to Canada, if you play college hockey you can't play in the Juniors. Which most of the good players do.

There are Juniors leagues, and then the college hockey circuit.

Juniors is defined as <20, IIRC.

Aside Canadians those guys know how to play hockey they're Olympic and world champions and NHL players, and btw I heard that Irzhy Shlegar is the winner of the last Stanley Cup. So who export players and from whom?

Of course the Canadian players which are forced to play in Russia suck. Why else would someone play hockey in Russia?

And I think you're showing your ignorance about hockey -- you think a player won the Stanley Cup?

I have no idea who Irzhy Shlegar is.

And I find it laughable that you're even trying to argue about exporting players...the good hockey players get exported to North America. Deal with that.

(People wonder why I have a thing for Russians -- I know four of you on here and you're all so incredibly irrational and nationalistic, even moreso than Americans)

Not at all, I don't have the inferiority complex about my nation that so many Russians (and admittedly, Canadians) have on this forum. I don't need to convince myself about how important my country is, because I don't care.

Ming, please dont restrict them.
Ming, Serb please dont forget about private messages.

About the topic: Yeh, Serb you can hear CNN and BBC news in English. Right? But must people on Russia do not know English and have no money for sattelite antenes. Right? So it makes Russian society antiamerican. The Russian freedom of speech is ZHirinovsky saying on TV to Bush "luchshe vmeste ebanjom po Tbilissi" ("We would better **** Tbilissi together").

Serb, look at advertisments on Russian websites (for example by agava banner system). What do you see? You see banners that say "Canada- luchshee mesto dlya nastojacchego russkogo ili evreja. Imigriruj seichas!!" ("Canada is the best place for real Russians and Jews. Imigrate now!!"). How can you comment it? Canada is the top of the world. You envy Denmark, Canada and Australia. You have no future: according to statistics 15% of your teenagers are drug addicts. I askesd people what do you plan to do being adult. 50% of girls say i want to be a proffesional whore and 75% of boys say i want to be a bandit. Dont you think that it's very simbolic? Yes i respect Russia, it's great culture, it's my culture. But culture is property of minority. How many percent of your youngsters had read Dostoyevsky's "Prestuplenie i nakazanie"??

Russia is country of late pride. Of late hopes. Your sportcommenter commenting olympics said "Наш спортсмен вошёл в двадцатьсемёрку лучших" ("Our sportsman had entred top-27"). It's situation in whole Russia now. Your polliticans steal billions and your pensioners count kopeyka's.

Russian people admired Clinton for ****ing Monica. Thay said that Eltzin can not do even this.

To Asher: You are right. I must also add, that only rich country with centures of democratic traditions can afford freedom of speech.

1) I do have money for sattelite antenna, but I don't need it.
2) Young generation knows English.
3) Anyhow, I don't see how lack of knowledge of English language/sattelite dishes could make anyone anti-American.

Funny, yesterday I saw interview with this journalist and he said that he is absolutely sure that it was American forces who opened fire on them. Also, I saw interview with Russian ambassador who said the same. Also, I know that holes in cars were made by 5,56 bullets. Also, I know that two bullets extracted from wounded were bullets from M-16 too.
So no, it weren't Americans who wounded our diplomats.



hi ,

your bullshit has to be put in the can , "peter" is know working for a belgian (!!) tv station , ....

and no , we are not in it or between it , neither above or below , ......

since you know somethings that other at centcom dont seem to know , care to share who was shooting with your M-16 , ......

5.56 or 223 is very common in those parts of the world since a couple decades , ..... care to share the lenght of the shell casing with us , ......

cause huh , the russians made a couple guns with 5.56 , .... and then they sold them , ..... to one saddam , .......

oh , yeah , maybe you should read the statement from the russian embassy in iraq , ...... but okay , its a bit difficult to read , its not online all the time , .....

Don't be so appalled, Siro. Just don't trust CNN and SKY too much either. Truth lies somewhere in between.

While CNN does present some amount of bias, it is usually (though not as often as one would like) factually correct.

I've yet to see anything to detract from SKY's perfect record. They deserve every prize they get. They are accurate, incredibly fast and overall feature the most objective and diverse stories.

This when compared to BBC (anti usa israel) and CNN (pro usa, moodswings about israel).


And I'm sorry if you can't see it, but my family and me are immigrants from the former SU. And we follow the news through TV, websites and newspapers and can compare them to other news sources.

While there's no place to call your media completely wrong, it is often very inaccurate, usually because of bias than sloppy journalism.

And IIRC after government controlled GAZPROM took control over NTV, you have no real independant press.
