The ACES made the local 11:00 news last night. Kinda googy. I had nothing better to do so I captured it and posted it. Credit to CHEX T.V. in Peterborough.

It's at

Hey ACES !! Way to go, guys. That's a great little clip, and helps all us Canuks by raising local awareness that we're trying to get on the show. Hope you get lots of fan mail!

Thanks for the encouraging words Dave. Even if not choosen, it's fun to play with it, make a web site, get on the news etc. Certainly I've seen that others have done so in their area.

I think we are in this weekends local paper as well, so if I can I'll put some of that up.

Good luck to you and your team, and everyone else on this board.

Hey Ron, what's up? The Crazy Canucks have also made the news! We've had 2 paper articles and 2 news clips. Ome news clip is currently online and the other, along with the paper articles should be up soon! Check em out at www.members.home.net/jdswelding I hope this is the right address, I'm not very good with computers. Hope to see some Canadian teams on the show. Best of luck. Percy Crazy Canucks

I checked out your site and clip. You are a bunch of Crazy Canucks. (It's o.k. to call someone a canuck if you are one?).

As a matter of fact, one of our listed alternative team names was Crazy Canucks. We also listed Canadian EH team Eh, as our team member Ted said in his intro. He figured we'd go with that at the time he made his part of the video.

It's interesting how many Canadian entries use that in their team name, and you don't seem to see it in the U.S. team entries.

Anyhow, good luck to all, Canadian or American.

And I thought we were being original using the name The Canucknuckleheads.
