Canucks Take a Tumble to 5 - 1

David Bowie. Most of you will know him as a rock star. However, he has dabbled in movies during his long career. This is a scene from his movie, "The Man Who Fell To Earth". Interestingly enough, I believe Team Jacobs just fell to earth themselves after a loss to the Czech Republic who were, before this match, 2 -3. I'm sure the boys would agree that this was not their best performance and they paid the price. But falling to earth may not be the worst thing...we all have to remember that they are playing in their first world championship and they have been spectacular. It must be a struggle just to hold focus, especially when things start to go south a bit. This loss may be the best thing that could happen to them. Given a few hours to ponder this game and the result may in fact, be the very thing to get them back in the zone.

They will face Norway tonight and I expect this to be a barnburner. But if Team Jacobs can reset, they can get back to their formidable selves and string another bunch of wins together.

10 o'clock games. I don't know what it is, but the older I get, the harder it is to stay awake until the end...and it is hard to watch through your eye lids! Note to self, pick up some toothpicks at Kwik Way!

The boys are still doing great and I am confident that this is just a brief stopover in "lamentville". And it's like I said before (this one is for you Chad), drink a cup of focus and chew a few crumbs of confidence and they will be right as rain!

Rock On!
