Show time!

Just a few hours to go until the Saskatchewan Roughriders and Calgary Stampeders lock up at McMahon Stadium. Sure hope the Riders don't repeat their recent post-season formula of falling behind early, and scrambling to catch up. That would..........what's the word I'm looking for? Oh, yeah - suck. Jacob's gonna miss some - or all - of the game because of a birthday party. What kind of parents schedule a kids' birthday party on the same afternoon as a Rider playoff game? I'm not from Saskatchewan, but even I know what a faux pas that is!

Last night, the Pats dropped a 3-2 shootout decision to the Everett Silvertips. The Pats' lack of a bonafide sniper was highlighted in the shootout, as they sent three competent - but not scary - shooters to the line. All three were denied by 'Tips netminder Leyland Irving. Oh well, at least Yoda figured out where the post-game show was. That was a plus.

Well, whattya say we hit the gym before the Rider game? See you there?
