there are so many more important things dude...



i thought i'd wait a few days after the game...

i'm ok now.

there's more important things in life. hugging love ones. watching LG and LB grow up to be brilliant human beings. watching the sunrise. bike riding. taking pics with my Nikon D70. watching movies on dvd. watching beavers in fish creek. helping little old ladies cross the street. reading "pillars of the earth"by ken follett. being awakened by the frigid prairie winds as i run. talking to LS about the latest Nike innovation over the phone. taking time to pet the local rabbit who hangs out in the yard. returning a glove that just happened to fall out of a lady's pocket. dropping a loonie into a downtown beggar's hat. playing catch with LB. shovelling an elderly neighbour's walk. chugging coca colas with soapydave. donating money to earthquake victims. sipping freshly made chai while the sun's rays drench my face. listening to canada geese as they fly south.

yes, they gave away the semi-final game...

yes, it hurt. friends don't hurt each other...

good grief, there are millions of people dying of aids, starvation, oppressed by dictators, subjugated to the terror of war.

damn those edmonton eskimos.

revised prognostications:

west final: bc lions 24 edmonton 21.

east final: T.O. 42 montreal 21.

the 2005 Grey Cup Champions: T.O. overwhelming B.C. 35 to 7.

i'll be watching with great interest but if that CBC yellow first down stripe is either crooked or moves with the camera i'm going bike riding...

Yep, I agree with your prognostications yet again...

I'd take the Esks over the Lions in a heartbeat if it weren't for the absolutely bizarre fact that Edmonton is going with Ray again. What?!

And nobody's gonna beat T.O. They's too strong...

Ray's arm is wimpy but i didn't realize how bad it was...

T.O. has a lot of offensive weapons especially that new canadian running back. plus, their defence is pretty good.
