Omg! Team Finland!!! - GoFuckYourself.com

Odie · 09-15-2004, 12:16 PM

After a loss to our Canadian hockey team, I had the pleasure of hanging out and meeting TEAM FINLAND!

I have to say that I've never met such a great bunch of guys in my life! Even tho they lost, they were in great spirits. They sang their team song, danced and drank their faces off till they had to get on their bus and go to the airport.

I, being the bartender, was "forced" to sit and hang out with these boys!

Kudos, to SAKU KOIVU, TEEMU SELANNE, OLLY JOKINEN, YARI KURI, MIKO KOIVU, AKI BERG, KARPINEN, and the rest of the guys!!!

Even with all their money and exposure, they were the best bunch of guys I've had the pleasure in meeting!

I'm now a huge Finland fan!!

Wow awesome dude... must have been fun.

n3in · 09-15-2004, 12:19 PM

thats pretty awesome that you got to hang out with them. i wish i couldve done that.

Basic_man · 09-15-2004, 12:20 PM

Canada rock!

I've always been a fan of the Fins. Through all the decades where we had the Winnipeg Jets here, our team was very open to recruiting both Swedes and Finnish players, always. Selanne was our top dog for several years.

The Fins are always a dangerous team in these big world tournaments. Their players never seem to carry that air of arrogance that many north American pro athletes seem to drag around with themselves.

Nothing but good things to say about the Fins here.

Completely!! They were as if I had known them all my life! Signing jerseys and inviting ppl to come and hang with them. Even tho most of them live in N.A. they still didn't carry any attitude.

I took pics with Selanne and the boys. I'll post them when I get them!

and boy can they drink!!

Not even close... Saku said they played a shitty game but they had much respect for the Canadians.

Denis_SC · 09-15-2004, 12:30 PM

And I know all Russian players from Toronto Maple Leafs personally ...

Odie · 09-15-2004, 12:33 PM

I'm sure you do!!! that's great!

the leafs are awesome!! I grew up with a few of them and I'm their biggest fan!!

I hope they come to an agreement today tho, or else there won't be any hockey for a while

That's awesome to hear Odie - it's inspiring to hear that they were as gratious in defeat as they were in Victory throughout the World Cup -

I've seen the Leafs after they've lost a regular season game and they are not fun to be around.

The Fin's lost the world cup and they were sooo happy to be together!!

I don't think I implied that you knew me or I you.

Didn't say she was the hottest, just that she was fun. She made a few of my friends squirm pretty good. I used to go too Rosewater with the boys from Equicom when I was doing some work with them and hanging with the Bay St crowd.

Cameron's good peoples, that's for sure; His girl ain't half bad either. I think she moved out on him to be closer to her office in Yorkville though. Joanna and Scott are cool too and Barry was always good for a few rounds on the companies credit cards .

Cool, they're a great team and they really gave us a run for our money.
