CP Article on the success of the Swedes in the 2009 draft

without comments

Article discusses changes made in 2002 both structural and mental – “…Boustedt said it used to be acceptable for Swedish junior teams to finish in the top four in international competitions. “Now the only thing the players are going for is gold,” he said. …” 

I’ve been lucky enough to be able to shoot a number of the drafted kids – click for a full list of 2009 National Hockey League-drafted players available in my archives.

I’ve included some of the Swedes in the gallery below:

Unrelated Pt. 1 – Is there a way to make a single-spaced list w/o bullets on WordPress?

Unrelated Pt. 2 – The televised Sugarland concert from Lexington, Kentucky (in Boston on WCVB) was terrific, much better than Soundstage concert televised earlier this year on WGBX – both are staying on my DVR which is handy since I keep their cds in my car.  Apparently tonight’s concert is going to be for sale tomorrow, but only at Walmart :-(.  Maybe they’ll include their REM cover on their next regular album.

I still don’t understand using “Joey” for an audience singalong.  Am I totally misunderstanding the lyrics? The song sounds like her friend “Joey” was killed while drunk driving.  Am I wrong?   Of course, I don’t understand why people would be yelling out during “Stay” either. 

Okay, while looking for a link for Sugarland’s website to use above – only found the “fan” membership site so grabbed the CMT artist link and discovered this:

 

I think I’m going to have to make an appropriate charitable donation to assuage my guilt over buying from Walmart.com – it not only has Love Shack, but several other covers, I even like the Beyonce cover judging by the mini-clip on Walmart’s website.  Thank God I’m a Presbyterian and therefore can sin (shop at Walmart) with zero need for confession or worry about going straight to hell :-).
