    Jozef Stumpel? Where’s Wayne? By Casey Shearer and Chris Brown On the Case again. Your favorite sportswriters are back with another mystery to solve. So grab your double-sided hat and your opium pipe Sherlock, and tell Watson to keep digging, because we have a Case for you. (That’s what Casey tells the ladies.) Seriously though, we are a little bit miffed because we can’t seem to quite figure out what happened to our favorite hockey team. Paul Simon said where have you gone Joe Dimaggio. He only lost one player, we’ve lost an entire team. Everywhere we look and everywhere we go we just don’t know what happened to the Los Angeles Kings. As proud Californians and Angelinos we are the first to prop up the west side whenever possible. We got more love for Cali than 2Pac. Now being crazy sports fanatics we love our Cali sports teams and follow them with passion and verve. The Lakers, the Dodgers, UCLA, the Rams and the Raiders - whoops we don’t have a football team anymore, and, of course, the Kings. We could tell you the names, numbers and statistics of any player on any one of these teams; we can tell you why new Laker Rick Fox chose to wear number 17 on his jersey and we know the bra sizes of the Laker Girls. We can tell you that UCLA quarterback Cade McNown is the second-rated passer in the country. We can tell you that UCLA’s freshman point guard, Baron Davis, went to Crossroads School for the Arts and Sciences and wore three different numbers in his four years and once scored 63 points in seventh grade against Campbell Hall when his entire team scored 67.

  • Wayne Gretzky from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Wayne Gretzky From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Wayne Douglas Gretzky , OC (/ ˈɡrɛtski/; born January 26, 1961) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey player and former head coach. He played 20 seasons in the National Hockey League (NHL) for four teams from 1979 to 1999. Wayne Gretzky Nicknamed "The Great One" , he has been called "the greatest hockey player ever" [1] by many sportswriters, players, and Hockey Hall of Fame, 1999 the NHL itself. He is the leading point-scorer in NHL history, with more assists than any other player has points, and is the only NHL player to total over 200 points in one season – a feat he accomplished four times. In addition, he tallied over 100 points in 16 professional seasons, 14 of them consecutive. At the time of his retirement in 1999, he held 40 regular- season records, 15 playoff records, and six All-Star records. He won the Lady Byng Trophy for sportsmanship and performance five times, [2] and he often spoke out against fighting in hockey. [1][3] Born and raised in Brantford, Ontario, Gretzky honed his skills at a backyard rink and regularly played minor hockey at a level far above his peers. [4] Despite his unimpressive stature, strength and speed, Gretzky's intelligence and reading of the game were unrivaled. He was adept at dodging checks from opposing players, and he could consistently anticipate where the puck was going to be and execute the right move at the right time. Gretzky also became known for setting up behind Wayne Gretzky in 2001 his opponent's net, an area that was nicknamed "Gretzky's office".

  • John F Candy
    M# MOTION Request for Staff Report to proceed with the Official Naming of the Parkette at 769 Broadview Avenue to “John F. Candy Parkette.” Moved by: Councillor Ootes SUMMARY: The City of Toronto has a history of commemorating and acknowledging the accomplishments of those Torontonians who have had an impact on society in their respective fields, from politics, social change, humanitarianism to history, entertainment, business and industry. In keeping with these practices, it would seem a fitting tribute to the legendary comedic actor John F. Candy to officially name the parkette located at 769 Broadview Avenue after him. John Franklin Candy (October 31, 1950 – March 4, 1994) was a Canadian comedian and actor. He was born in Newmarket and raised in Toronto, the son of Evangeline (née Aker) and Sidney James Candy. He attended Neil McNeil High School, an all-boys Catholic school in Toronto, where he played football. He then enrolled in a media/journalism program at Centennial College in 1968 and found his true talent as a television performer/entertainer. Mr. Candy's first ever television performance was at the CBC’s Toronto headquarters, where he appeared in classic children’s shows such as "Dr. Zunk and the Zunkins." This led to a role on "Coming Up Rosie," which saw Mr. Candy cast alongside Dan Ayrkroyd and Catherine O'Hara. Mr. Candy quickly rose to fame as a member of the Toronto, Ontario branch of Second City. He further gained wide North American popularity as a cast member on the Second City Television program (SCTV). NBC picked up the show in 1981 and it quickly became an all-time fan favourite.
