Yeah, now that's typical. Sign up to a site and the next day it breaks, and causes MY site to barf because I put an image there. Pfft.

The current page count is 6054.

Today's topic, is hockey. Leafs won't get to the playoffs, and you can blame who you like - there are plenty of culprits. Quinn for changing the lines too often, the players for sometimes turning up in body only ... take your pick. Injuries are always a bane, but look at other teams (Tampa springs to mind) and it's obvious that the Leafs are not alone with that issue. It's part of the game, but if a team is forever speaking of "the injuries wot dun us in" then either it's a whingeing team, or they really do have backroom problems with medical and physio staff. Either way, it's not going to get you a Stanley Cup - so change something, for Mackinaw's sake.

Eyes in Toronto now turn to the Jays for the chance of a winning team. At the risk or marginalising the Marlies, I suspect that nothing will be muttered about them until they're in the Calder Cup final. So let's just watch the ball game, shall we?

I was lucky enough to be at the season opener at Rogers Centre this week, and it was a great game. Superb atmosphere, and every had fun. I even walked past Lance Brown, but was moving too fast in the other direction to be able to take a photo. Shame, as my wife thinks he's great. Inside the stadium, you can tell they've applied a new lick of paint, and the new Jumbotron looks nice. One downer though, when the Jays scored home runs there were no fireworks. What's up with that?

So it's Friday, the Jays pulled off a 2-1 series win over the Twins, and the Leafs scrounged a point last night but again lost the shootout. If you ask me, the Leafs need to shoot the puck more.
