the mad sports man

trade deadline many trades today. the surprising one was ryan smyth getting sent to the n.y. islanders for a couple of nobodies and a draft pick. many fans uderstandably furious (myself included). smytty will talk pubically tomorrow. i think he got traded cause of his salary. just a personal opinion.

auto club 500 matt kenseth wins the auto club 500 after kevin harvick finds a flat tire on the last caution. jeff gordon finished 2nd, jimmie johnson 3rd and jeff burton 4th. next race in las vegas in 2 weeks

long weekend over it was the family day long weekend. another useless weekend where half the people still had to work the whole weekend. it was busy. thankfully im off tomorrow. its needed.

something worth hearing. heres a song that was sent to me by Katie (met her on crossbonez). the song she sang is my world and heres the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUQ4z6ZxRQA . i hope you like it. doesnt she have a wonderful voice?

the 49th daytona 500 quite a finish in the race. i caught the final couple of laps and kevin harvick edged out mark martin at the line to win it. behind them, a crazy wreck that edned up seeing clint bowyer sliding across the finish line on his roof, finishin 18th. tony stewart, from what the fox crew was saying was in a crash that was eerily similar to the one that took dale earnhardt's life (that was 6 years ago tonight). next race is next sunday and the auto club 500 in fontana, california

lacking hair as you can see, i dont have much hair. ive been bald before, but this time had something behind it. there's a valentines day hair massacre at the mall on the 13th and 14. its where you put in a minimum 25 dollar donation to shave your head. i didnt think much of it till my supervisor put me up to it. hence the lack of hair. money went to the stollery childrens hospital.

february 14 a.k.a valentines day. i suppose ite that time of year. im not too fond of it myself. personally, i wish it didnt happen. i know it sounds depressing. that just who i am.

budweiser shootout tony stewart won the budweiser shootout on a gutsy bump pass on kyle busch. rookie david gilliland finished 2nd, and kyle busch 3rd. quite a start to the season. and boy was gilliland good tonight or what.

brrrrr cold another cold snap. has most of canada and the u.s. in a deep freeze. yesterday it snowed AND had freezing rain on top of that. driving still sucks cause the streets are still being plowed. what can you do?

super bowl XLI the indianapolis colts have just beaten the chicago bears 29-17 to win the vince lombardi trophy on a soggy dolphin stadium in miami. tony dungee became the first african-american coach to win a super bowl. peyton manning was named game mvp

snoopy's icy fun heres snoopy having a little fun at lucy's expense. makes ya want to go for a skate.

an interesting site coming home from work was a site you dont see too much. getting to westmount on the bus was a whole shitload of water on the street. the side street by the bus terminal had water coming from it. im suspecting it was a water main break. would have made for a swim that would keep you up for awhile.

the beginning of february the shortest month of the year (no wonder it feels small lol). makes me wonder how theres so much going on in such a short month. the nascar season starts on the 10th with the budweiser shootout, the daytona 500 on the 18th, super bowl 41 on sunday, loads of hockey, players reportin to spring training in florida and arizona. my head is spinning thinking about it. isn't it fun? i say yes.
