Fasten your seatbelts!

Another action-packed weekend with the munchkin is on the horizon. Friday night will probably be devoted to watching the Bombers and Alouettes, followed by a little Madden on the playstation. Nice way to unwind from a stressful week.

On Saturday, the activity cranks up with (hopefully) tennis in the morning, followed by some cycling in the afternoon, and the Riders and Eskimos in the evening. It'll be interesting to see how fired-up the Eskimos are, now that they're closing in on official elimination from the playoff race. As for the Riders...........damned if I know! Hopefully Barrett's Boys are still riding the wave of momentum generated by last week's overtime win over B.C. That'd be nice.

On Sunday I'm taking Jacob to his first communion class. Granted it's been a while, but when did they stop teaching this stuff in school? Isn't that the whole point of sending our kids to catholic schools - immersion in the faith, introduction to the sacraments, etc...? Just wondering.

On Sunday night I hook up with Rod Pedersen for the broadcast of the Pats vs. Red Deer WHL tilt at the Brandt Centre. It'll be interesting to hear how the leather-lunged faithful treat Rebels forward Martin Hanzal, the Czech import who spurned the Pats - who in turn were unable to trade the enigmatic sniper to one of his "preferred" destinations. Let 'em have it, folks!
