Sweet relief

I guess if I wasn't going to get the outcome I wanted two years ago, this year is kind of consolation.

Yes, I was one of those who wished Edmonton well enough to get to third base, but not to go all the way. (Yes, I know I just mixed sports metaphors in a horrible horrible manner.)

It's not that I'm a bad Canadian, it's just that I'm a better Calgarian (despite not having actually lived within city limits for years). You might call it a religious thing. Probably one of the few things reflexive enough to be called a religious thing.

Well, as the blog I got ridiculously addicted to this year pointed out, pre-season's in (a mere!) eight weeks. See ya all there.

  • I figured since the Flames lost, I was just going to stop watching hockey altogether.

    Except Andre made me watch Game 7... which was disappointing for Edmonton unfortunately, but still well played.

  • Well. Leaving the country immediately after for three weeks was a good start.

    Though perhaps participating in a playoff pool wasn't.

    When do the Stamps play this week?

  • Good question... check out their website. I don't follow American football enough, nevermind figure out their scoring system.

    However, one of my colleagues is married to a Stamp.

  • Actually...one advantage of living outside the blackout zone is that not only do I know when each game is, they're all televised...

    And honey...it's Canadian football. Nobody watches that four-down American stuff.

  • Ok ok I stand corrected...

    can you tell I don't watch much Canadian football? I just know that soccer is called football in Denmark. :)

    Any summer plans?
