It was a most-enjoyable sports viewing weekend, if I do say so myself. The Regina Pats notched a pair of victories, as their new-look lineup continues to develop into a cohesive unit. I was particularly impressed with Friday night's 5-2 victory over the defending Memorial Cup champion Vancouver Giants. The Pats were up 5-0 before the Giants scored a couple of late goals - both on 5-on-3 power plays. If Regina continues to play like that (tough, hard-working and smart), we could be in for an exciting spring around here.
Young Jacob had a hockey game of his own Sunday afternoon in Gray, Saskatchewan. I was pleased to be there, at least until I realized HE was not! Give me strength...
And then there's the matter of the Green Bay Packers. The Pack spotted Mitchell Blair's Seahawks a 14-0 advantage before roaring back to take a 42-20 victory. Green Bay will host the New York Giants in next Sunday's NFC Championship game. Welcome to the frozen tundra, Eli Manning! We trust you won't be enjoying your stay.
