A case for NHL in Houston!

Sadly - from American TV and movies and their own preconceptions.

This ranks up there with my recent exchange on the NHL marketing thread:

deluded canadian: 50% of the US population is black.

me: no its not, its about 12% - <insert US census numbers>

deluded canadian: Well, the vast majority of US cities are black.

me: no they're not, only 2 out of the top 20 cities have majority aftican american populations - <insert more US census numbers>

deluded canadian: blissfull silence.

No, I do not think that all (or even most) Canadians are that ignorant about the US, and I know that many Americans are as ignorant about Canada, but I notice more of these off the wall comments seem to be made by our friends up north.

In all honesty, I think you can find an equal proportion of compete chowderheads in either country. I think you might get that perception because there are probably more Cdn posters here than other nationalities, so there is bound to be a higher raw number of chowderheads. I would suggest that you should not take that to mean that we have more chowderheads per capita overall.

That being said, my countrymen have been putting my theory to the test over the past several days.

For some reason, your post just made me long for some New England Clam Chowder.

No. I thought the GB was advocating for non-traditional soups like black-eyed pea, black bean chili, and southwestern tortilla and rice.

LOL I'm more Canadian then anyone on this forum. The real question is, what have you done for Canada? Nothing. Born and raised in Calgary ya chumps. I guess reality is a no go here on this forum, talk about being ignorant and stubborn.

Yeah, you're a regular Joey Smallwood...

I can't decide if you are making a double entendre or not ...
