WJC: USA wins gold

On the 27th October 312 AD the battle of Milvian Bridge was fought near Rome. The two men contending for control of Rome and the Empire were Constantine, who controlled Gaul, England and parts of Germany and Maxentius, who controlled Italy, Spain and Africa.
It happens the two were brothers in law.
The day before the monumental and pivotal battle, Constantine saw a flaming cross in the sky, taking I as an omen, he had his men put a cross on their shields and banners.
Full of strength at what their commander had seen, Constantine’s men won the battle. Maxentius drowned crossing a bridge over the Tiber.
Rome would soon be unified under one ruler (only Licentius remained in Constantine’s way.)
Constantine would spend the ret of his reign Christianising his subjects.
He converted on his deathbed, becoming the first Christian Emperor, in 337 AD.

I’m not informed enough to vote on this issue.

Ahhh …pure gold …

@Rune:

As far as I’m concerned, people have to work for my vote, it’s not just something I give away without thinking.

Let me rephrase how i understand this:
People have to work … and do my thinking.

@Rune:

…I wouldn’t be able to remember something two years ago either.  …

Yeah, two years is such a long time.

:D

@marine36:

I would rather go without the prize then cooperate with the french. :lol:

too easy.

wow
does this poll ever suck.
Only one Canadian team did not make the playoffs (Edmonton) and you included only one. For shame!! (just teasing - i don’t really care . . . )
Oh - watch for some Manitoban players . . .
Winnipeg-born Mike Keane of the Vancouver Canucks – a three-time Stanley Cup champion – and Arron Asham of the New York Islanders, who hails from Portage la Prairie.

Shane Hnidy from Neepawa and Churchill-born rookie Jordin Tootoo will be playing with the eighth-seeded Nashville Predators, coached by Dauphin’s Barry Trotz. Also Toronto Maples Leafs goaltender Eddie Belfour, born in Carman and maybe even his backup Trevor Kidd, from Dugald. Not bad for a nothing prairie province . . . .

@Deviant:Scripter:

It’s not just Presdential candidates that are ignorant and misinformed, Gary Coleman doesn’t even think he should HAVE to know who the VP is as governor of California!

It’s probably a good thing he didn’t get elected, then. :wink:

@cystic:

The world is not perfect, and this is the least of the things i believe important to correct.

I guess that last point is where we differ massively :)

With a population smaller than U.K., U.S., China, and Russia, how could Canada have the 2nd largest army?
