The Pontiacs game tonight in Sherwood Park has been cancelled because of weather. So no broadcast tonight, but I did hand pick the music to fill the 3 hours that would normally occupy the evening on game night.
I bet the Crusaders are all pumped that they don't have to feel the wrath of the Yaks. Kevin Carthy has a great status on facebook, "deeply concerned for the kids of sherwood park who were expecting a show tonight" The wrecking ball will be grounded until at least Wednesday when the Pontiacs make the trip to the Park again. Now word on when tonight's game will be re-scheduled, but it sounds like it will be in February.
I'm more disappointed on missing out on a chance to see if my source regarding "puck bunnies" is accurate. oh well.
Speaking of which, I was talking with a friend last night who also referred to "puck bunnies" as just "pucks" while growing up. They also had a special "regional" term for them while growing up, "Tiger Tails" as he grew up in Medicine Hat.
How soon is too soon to teach Seth (23 months old) how to shovel the sidewalk? Should we start with taking out the garbage first? He already likes to help with dishes so I figure we get him trained up as soon as we can.
OK that's all, I should go home. Talk to you later!

Friday
Well this week went by fast. I guess it helps when you only have a 3 day work week.
I will be hitting the road with the Pontiacs tomorrow afternoon. I will be doing colour commentary for the game in Sherwood Park. Robb and I will be on the air at 6:45.
Sherwood Park by the way, hottest puck bunnies in the league. This is from a very reliable un-named source so if you are into good looking ladies, maybe make the trip.
Speaking of 'puck bunnies'. Is that the politically correct term now? I remember back when I was younger we just referred to the as 'pucks'. Is the 'bunny' part an Alberta thing? Or is it to make them feel better with the Playboy Bunny comparison? Do puck bunnies even know they are puck bunnies? Either way, try and tune into tomorrow for the hockey game.

I googled "puck bunnies" and the following picture was one of the few I felt was sharable...the rest were awesome though!
That's it. Have a good weekend!

Silver?
Well that sucked. 3 goal lead vanishes in the 3rd and lose 5-3. how? why? I almost threw up!
How classless are the Russians? You win so you have the right to celebrate, scream scary Russian at the camera with your crooked teeth and ugly faces, sure. You won, I get it. Its not their fault that everything about them is ugly. But, when you take the championship trophy into Canada's end of the ice to celebrate, that's crossing the line. I was disgusted!!! How come Kassian didn't fix some Russian teeth with his Koho? It shoulda been lights out Piestany style! The Brawl in Buffalo!!! Had I been on that team it woulda been ugly. Uglier than their language, teeth and faces combined.
oh well, at least my 2 year old son enjoyed all the goals in the 3rd period. Sometimes I wish I could just appreciate good hockey like him. Doesn't matter who scores he goes bonkers cheering. Definitely lightens the mood.
OK enough World Juniors, I'm getting all fired up!
When you see someone running across the street, do you secretly hope they bite it when they get to the curb? no? me neither.....
Day 2 of boxing tonight! I'm looking forward to punching the crap out of the heavy bag, and I think some people will be sparring so that will be fun to watch. My goal is to start sparring in 3 months, hopefully I learn to keep my hands up or my name will be Dean "lights out" Lee.
Is Eminem the greatest rapper of all time? I think so. People will argue Tupac, but Eminem has been able to stay alive so therefore takes over the title. That is of course if Tupac is actually dead.
alright that's all, talk to you tomorrow

World Juniors
I'm sitting at home watching the Bronze Medal game at the World Juniors featuring the hosts. USA and Sweden. I must say that this is an utter failure for USA. They were the defending champs with 8 returning players playing at home (kinda). if this was being played in Canada and we were playing in the Bronze medal game, on a Wednesday afternoon, there would be outrage. Those poor kids would never hear the end of it. I hope Sweden crushes them by the way.
How embarrassing is USA Hockey. They host the WJHC and when Canada met USA in the semis it looked like it was Canada. Try and sell the game a bit. Its not even like Buffalo isn't a hockey city. They should be ashamed by the lack of support. Just another reason why we are the greatest hockey nation in the world.
The IIHF would be CRAZY if they leave North America for this tournament. I just cant see any other country try and compete with the attendance and TV numbers when its in Canada. 4 million people watched the game against the US. Highest ever for a non-gold medal game, and TSNs highest rated program EVER was the Gold Medal game last year in Saskatoon Can vs USA, with 5.3 million viewers. Would it be that high in Europe with the time difference? Not a chance.
1-0 Sweden. 7:38 to go in 2nd
You ever look at something and think, hey that's easier than it looks??? Boxing is complete opposite!!! I joined the K.A. Boxing club last night, boxing looks tough and is tougher to do.
Damn, US tied it up 6:28 left in 2nd.
How does a person get more twitter followers? I only have 10! its brutal. Recommend me and follow me here Dean_on_Kool
OK time for me to get focused on the big game....later!
