I always say only use first names and especially nicknames when you personally know the person. This isn't Brazil. Last names are more universally direct and accurate if you can pronounce them.

QuoteTopi MacKinnon, not Makar. Definitely a sell job on the penalty, but it also was a high stick. Canada was the better team, Finland was just trying to park the bus and survive. Agreed, my bad on the player. But that game should have went to OT and been decided there. That was an injustice to an inferior team in order to get the marquee matchup on Sunday.

It’s been an incredible journey, but it’s only fitting that it ends here, where it all began in Aston. It’s great to be honoured by your fellow musicians and at the same time support good causes. None of this would’ve been possible without Ozzy, Geezer, and Bill. What we created together was bigger than any one of us, and I’ll always be grateful for that. Tony The original Black Sabbath
