Who do you think will win it all? I think we can win. 3. Predict one team that will get knocked out in the first round? Bedlam looks like he will be refereeing early. 4. What is our favourite vacation destination and why do you like it so much? Many places – Greek Islands – scenery, food, people 5. Who is your favourite and least favourite hockey team and why? Unfortunately a Leaf fan Habs suck! 6. If Hollywood made a movie about your life, who would you want to play the lead role? A younger Robert Redford 7. Pajamas, in the buff or something else? Something else 8. Number of girlfriends/boyfriends in your life: < 10, <25 or more than 25 <25 but none for a long time! No stories like Pozzo though (who really does with the possible exception of Norm?) 9. If you could trade places with any other person for a week, famous or not famous, living or dead, real or fictional, with whom would it be? Harper – figure out what the heck he is thinking and put our country back on the right track, breaking away from special interest groups and his secret backers. (and make life insurance tax deductible) If you could be a super hero what would you want your powers to be? The Flash – would not need a partner! (surprisingly Chris said this not his partner Mr. Wonderful). Tell us one thing about yourself that none of the Calcutta participants would already know? I can't drink tequila very well Mike Donnelly 1. How do you think your team will do in this year’s Calcutta? Based on some of the handicaps…..I believe we will get to the final (actually a humble answer if you think about it) 2. Who do you think will win it all? The final will be Brechin/Boag vs Donnelly/Barrett and we should win 3. Predict one team that will get knocked out in the first round? This is an easy one….Drew/Green 4. What is our favourite vacation destination and why do you like it so much? Kiawah Island, SC…..it’s too personal to share ...( A hole in one Mike?) 5. Who is your favourite and least favourite hockey team and why? Not really a fan of anybody (And everyone thought you had Nate envy) 6. If Hollywood made a movie about your life, who would you want to play the lead role? Gene Simmons…..this relates to question 8 7. Pajamas, in the buff or something else? Pajamas (with little rabbits on them) 8. Number of girlfriends/boyfriends in your life: < 10, <25 or more than 25 Based on the number of marriages…..I think most can figure this one out 9.

If you could be a super hero what would you want your powers to be? Flesh Gordon…..if only I could move quicker then Al Scott 11.Tell us one thing about yourself that none of the Calcutta participants would already know? Back in the 80’s I was attacked in the parking lot of the Hamilton squash club. See attached article. (In case you can't read this it is a little difficult to believe - indicates Mike Donnelly got out of his car and ran after guy trying to rob him - and get this - he caught him!)  12. Who will give their partner the look more often – Gary Long or Ted Charuk or someone else (name that person)? Probably me (very honest) |
