Thursday Cheers and Jeers

A long overdue post-vacation edition of Cheers and Jeers! Are you sitting comfortably? Then let's begin: (bonus points for whomever can name the song lyric the last two lines were "borrowed" from)

Cheers
  • Regina Minor Football. Kelly, Len and the rest of the crew really do a fine job. I can't wait to see/coach on the new Leibel Field!
  • The businesses/individuals who have donated prizes in support of our team's Cougar of the Week program.
  • STC/Greyhound courier service. I shipped a parcel by bus from Ontario on a Sunday, and it arrived in Regina two days later! Not bad.

Jeers
  • Parents who sign their kids up for minor football, pay the deposit, talk to the coach, and then drop out without bothering to inform anyone. You suck. Hard.
  • Air Canada. A better flight schedule into/out of Regina than WestJet these days, but I could do without the three hour delays!
  • Blue Bird Cafe at Regina Beach. The quality of the legendary fish and chips is down under the new ownership.

The Cougars are grumpy today! Was JD's closed last night or something?

Pac58 said...

Wrong song, too.

Wasn't the song Doesn't Really Matter by Platinum Blonde.

Pac58 said...

Correct!

What do I win?
I kid!
I'm going to date myself here but I think Platinum Blonde/Honeymoon Suite was my first-ever concert I attended back in the early 80s.

The prize is an all-expenses paid trip to Pense!

I saw that show, but in Ontario. I believe The Spoons were the opening act for the triple bill. My lord I'm old.
