[QUOTE="LittleGuy, post: 509995, member: 44360"] Thats weird Canucks I've actullly met Kyle Wellwood as well!!!! At a bar in St. Catharines in his last season with the Leafs... most unfit professional athlete I'd ever met. Wasn't surpised at all when the media reported he was out of shape when he got to camp, decent enough guy though. I've met a pile of NHLers.... Dale Hawerchuk, Ryan Miller are two of the bigger namesa and were great, virtually any of the older legends you can run into are solid guys, Walter Gretzky pretty much epitomized class and dignity when I met him. Unfortunately the time I met Ryan Miller he was at a bar with Andrew Peters who was a useless player and a total ****ing idiot at the bar....tried to start fights was a dick to anyone talking to Ryan...they had to bring in a couple of bouncers in from a bar down the street to help talk him down because he was causing a scene. His career ended in the minors because he kept violating curfew and making an ass of himself. CFL guys abound, a lot of them come through Beamsville on their way to Hamilton or say hi to the fans after the games, Ron Lancaster was a regular at the Tim Hortons in town, and Paul Osbaldistan lived down the street from a few freinds of mine. Most CFL guys are pretty good guys, have their heads on their shoulders as they aren't making millions of bucks. MLS players I've met are the same way...John Carver was a delight to talk to when he was coaching Toronto FC, he was very open and frank with me about MLS and the team which was refreshing. [/QUOTE]
