The weekend is soon here and with that a few things:
--I am not a ball fan but it was a week to remember for those who love the sport. Tampa Bay made a miraculous attempt into the post season while the Boston Red Sox dropped out of the race after a horrendous September. My buddy Tim will not be a happy camper as that is back-to-back years they missed the playoffs.
--The Riders are in Calgary and take on the Stamps Saturday. If they lose, I am saying that will be all and no playoffs. While they won't be mathematically eliminated, their chances at making the post season will be severely diminished. Meanwhile, B.C. looks like the hottest team in the league and takes on Edmonton tonight in their new digs in Vancouver. I'm saying as of now this will be your western final and Montreal and Winnipeg will be in the Eastern final. A bombers and edmonton final? Wouldn't that be something-last year they were in the cellar and now this year they could both be in that finale!
--NHL preseason continues. LA's Drew Doughty verbally agreed to a deal with the Kings that will see him make 8 million over 8 years! Wow that's a nice chunk of change but the potential for Doughty is there I supposed...but that's still a lot of cash.
--WHS football today has the Wildcats in Hanley. Watrous had the bye last week and are 3-0 heading into Sabres territory. After this game, the schedule gets reseeded and a round-robin format takes place.
--Three local schools were put under review this week. Bulyea, Nokomis and Young are under review in the Horizon School Division. Visit www.thewatrousmanitou.com for the story!
--Fall is here and I love it! Cool, crisp weather it has been awhile!
--Hoping to get out golfing at least once or twice yet before the season ends. The course at Manitou Beach has been the nicest in a long time and I haven't really had the chance to enjoy it much this year--but that's okay.
--Eagles take on the 49ers this Sunday--a must win there as well! Vick is slotted to be in the game.
--Not too much else other than enjoy the beautiful weather coming up this weekend! Blessings.
