Monday musings

At the very least, this week is starting out a lot better than last week!

• The J-man returns to active duty (school) today, after a week off to recuperate from abdominal surgery. Have a great day, kiddo. Can't wait to see you tonight!
• His stomach might be sore and upset today, after seeing Montreal skate past his Pittsburgh Penguins 3-1 in game two of their NHL eastern conference semi-final.
• Sure they still have Crosby and Malkin, but you have to wonder how much the Pens are missing Jordan Staal right now.
• Speaking of young men named Jordan, congratulations to Jordan Sisco on his selection by the Riders with the 8th overall pick of the CFL draft.
• If you happened to catch last week's episode of SportZone on Access 7, you saw how excited the Sisco kid was at the prospect of being drafted by his hometown team.
• Mind you, he was also at a mini-camp with the Indianapolis Colts the past few days, so he may have had other things on his mind as well.
• Shomari Williams has certainly impressed in the first couple days of his career as a Saskatchewan Roughrider. Now let's see what he can do on the field!
• The last time the Riders had the first overall pick in the draft, they selected Scott Schultz. I'd say that worked out pretty well!
• My satellite radio konked out on me on the weekend. This is a situation that must be rectified immediately!
• The North Regina Little League season was supposed to start this past weekend. Hence the bad weather. It's kind of a tradition.
• I only have 24 days left with my age matching Roger Aldag's jersey number. Sigh...
