As one chapter ends, a new one begins. Yes, it's hockey sacrilege for me to suggest that the Leafs and Canadiens were in a neck and neck race to be eliminated in the opening playoff rounds, but it was an exciting game on Thursday. Shame that the elimination by the Islanders was so anti-climatic. And as they say, there's always next year.
A new chapter continues just outside my office door, as the Blue Jays home opener is tonight. The winning ways continue in the family as Dad managed to win a pair of tickets for tonight's game. I'll give you the scoop on how that goes, as my sports education continues. I was never a sports guy growing up, but lately I've been making an effort to learn a bit more, mainly so I know what the heck Rando and Rayzer are talking about. The education continues further this spring as I've joined the company softball team. Now all I need is an afternoon at the batting cages and one of those mitteny glove things and I'm all set."I could die and never see the Leafs win the Stanley Cup. Keep that on your conscience, boys."
