Message: [QUOTE="edowd26, post: 993590, member: 832"] Ok: 1. I played hockey. This is a nation of people that assume that when you come north to play hockey you are coming to lose. My winning percentage is above 60%. People are generally pompous about it there too. 2. I played hockey with kids who were 2nd generation Americans from Canada. They will openly cheer for Canada over the country in which they reside. I am 3rd generation Irish American. USA over the emerald island every single day. 3. My grandfather married a Canadian 8 months after my grandmother die. That's cool old people get lonely fast I get it. She convinced him to essentially turn his back on his family and adopt hers as his own. She uses her step daughters (my aunts) Adirondack camp as if it were her own(even raises and flies the Canadian flag there). I get this is also on my grandfather but she is the succubus that lured him. I have more but this is just off the cuff will I'm snowballing. [/QUOTE]
