Monday musings

The noggin is a little waterlogged this morning, so there's no telling what will slide out:

• We're almost halfway through 2009, and the weather in this part of the world has absolutely sucked this year.
• On the bright side, maybe this is Mother Nature's way of expressing her support for a domed stadium for Regina?
• If Mother Nature was a dude, I'd boot him in the plums. Several times.
• Ryan Dinwiddie as a Saskatchewan Roughrider? Say it ain't so!
• Is the interest in Dinwiddie an indication of the Riders' general lack of prowess at quarterback, or a lack of depth behind Darian Durant?
• I thought the Riders had advanced past the point of picking up other teams' table scraps.
• Or, have we already forgotten how the Michael Bishop experiment turned out? Or Nealon Greene? Reggie Slack? How about Warren Jones? Enough already!
• It'll be very interesting to see how the Pittsburgh Penguins respond to the 5-0 shellacking they took in game five of the Stanley Cup final. Can they rebound on home ice, or are the Red Wings moving in for the kill?
• Tiger Woods and Roger Federer are back on top of their respective sports. It's almost enough to make a guy run out and buy a Gillette razor.
• Kobe Bryant and the L.A. Lakers are poised to capture the NBA championship. I have to go wash my hands now. That felt icky to type.
• Seriously, is there a wimpier/crappier band in existence than The Fray? Their music makes me want to gouge out my eyes with a tuning fork.
