When you're this Big they call you, Goalie.


Anyone else remember that Mr.Big commercial from the 80's with Wayne Gretzky? I tried effortlessly to find it on you YouTube, for at least 10 seconds, and it didn't pop up. All I really remember from it was Wayne in all white, jumping up into a freeze frame while the Mr.Big singers rejoiced that "Mr.Big just can't be beat". Is this true? Can Mr.Big not be beat? Was Gretzky supposed to be Mr.Big in this scenario? Because, I gotta tell ya, Wayne may not have been the best spokesperson for a candybar that boasts it's appeal in mass. Maybe someone like Rogatien Vachon would have been a better choice. That guy probably swallowed those things whole, like a bird, in between periods.

Back in the day.



Remember when a player was traded, they would just paint the new jersey over the old one on hockey cards? That was the best.



Or when the would just cut the head off of one guy and glue it on the body of another...



And this card is just weird because Manon Rheaume has a 23 oz. Steak for a glove.
