Random Thoughts

Sweet! Found another way to procrastinate. Just going to post some random thoughts on random topics...

- 2 words to describe the Leafs this year - mediocrity and inconsistency. After a tremendous effort against the best team in the East on Saturday, they come back and lose an absolute stinker to the Bruins. A team starting your team's former prospect against you was clearly rubbing salt in your wounds, yet the team still manage to blow a 2 - 0 lead. Is it the players? coach? GM?

- Sundin is playing his heart out this year. Hate to say it, but the Leafs have to trade him. I would LOVE to see Sundin win a Stanley Cup, unfortunately it will not be will the Leafs, but it would be great to see him go out the way Ray Bourque did.

- Between Maurice and JFJ, unfortunately it will be Maurice that goes first unless they bot last until the end of the season, and then JFJ will be gone

- It seems the more respected GMs in any league has an easier time making any type of deals...case and point - Brian Burke with now the Anaheim Ducks, and Brian Colangelo with the Raptors

- Moon has been awesome...I was skeptical at first, but he has been growing on me. He reminds me of a more athletic version of JYD.

- Had a chance to meet Anthony Parker, Jose Calderon and Jason Kapono the other day. They were great and funny guys...

- Still deciding whether or not to go Black Friday shopping or not. I was quite excited for awhile, but the excitement kinda died the last few days...it'll either be Grove City or staying home...need to make a decision soon.

- Sad to see the Argos losing on Sunday. The defence did its job, the Bishop just couldn't muster any offence. Would've been nice to have the home team in the Grey Cup. With Glenn out, I don't think Winnipeg can win this game. Their defence will keep it close and their offence will score some points, but I think this is finally the year for Riders to win it again.

Time to wrap this up...time to go write the exam...
