By junior on January 12, 2008, at 12:11 am I checked tsn.ca for the final score of the Leaf game this morning when I got to work. I just needed to know how badly the Leafs had lost. When I tuned in to the game last night, it was late in the first period, 2-0 for the Kings. No sooner had I set the […]
By junior on December 16, 2007, at 12:30 am I promised myself, when starting up this blog thingy, that I would eventually post some of the poems and lyrics I’ve written over the years. What follows are some lyrics for a song called “Wednesday” that my buddies and I were fortunate enough to record in 1994. The album went triple teflon and the rest […]
By junior on December 6, 2007, at 11:44 pm Things are crazy busy for me at work right now (like, Unabomber crazy, not just regular crazy), and added on top of all that earning-a-living stuff are some social obligations. Now, Spouse and I are not exactly society page material, but it so happens that this holiday season we have been invited to three Christmas […]
By junior on November 25, 2007, at 1:09 pm I wrote yesterday’s post, about the now almost certainly imminent demise of Maple Leaf head coach Paul Maurice, sometime in the afternoon.
Later that same night, the Leafs went out and watched the Coyotes beat them 5-1. They offered approximately the same amount of resistance to the Coyotes as drifts of snow offer to howling […]
By junior on November 24, 2007, at 3:39 pm I haven’t dipped into the MSM today to check on the status of Paul Maurice’s job as Leaf head coach, but man oh man, things are not looking good for him from where I sit.
First, let me say this: Paul seems like a decent fellow and I have quite enjoyed listening to him […]
By junior on October 27, 2007, at 12:28 pm While I can, I need to get at it and start talking some smack about one of my Rotisserie hockey teams. This year marks the return of a family-based hockey pool in our clan. The draft was Thursday night, and my charges were quick off the mark when league play officially began last evening. As […]
By junior on October 23, 2007, at 9:28 pm Atlanta Thrashers’ centreman Bobby Holik was interviewed by Paul Hendrick on Sportsnet’s broadcast of the Leafs-Thrashers game tonight. It was suggested to Holik that both teams were doing everything they could to shoot themselves in the foot with an inordinate amount of sloppy play. Said Holik: “We don’t have any feet left that we can […]
By junior on October 22, 2007, at 12:06 pm Admittedly, it is difficult to point to a document entitled “Barry Melrose Rocks” with a straight face and claim some sort of vindication. Nevertheless, on the subject of Bryan McCabe, I plan to do so. Here is what was recently written on that site concerning the Leaf blueliner:
…Toronto running Bryan McCabe out of town. […]
By junior on October 18, 2007, at 5:02 pm I am involved in three rotisserie hockey leagues this year. One is a family league, one involves people at the office, and in the third my competitors are some of my fishing buddies. Today, one of my fellow franchise managers decided to change the name of his team seven games in to the season. This […]
By junior on October 18, 2007, at 12:54 pm Look, I’ve badmouthed Bryan McCabe over the last couple of days. I’m not saying I haven’t. I’m not saying you shouldn’t. I’m just saying that maybe the folks raining boos down upon him from the newly-humidified rafters of the Air Canada Centre ought to reflect upon the legitimacy of their booing.
First, the facts. Bryan […]
