Edmonton Oil Kings stumble out of the gate

Hey folks,

I'm back and last night I was at the Edmonton Oil Kings (WHL) season opener last night and well, it wasn't exactly the start the team wanted. 10 minutes into the game and the Red Deer Rebels were up 3-0. Ryan Nugent-Hopkins (does that name sound familiar?) probably the next best north American prospect in all of hockey scored also scored and the only real saving grace for the Oil Kings was that the leading scorer on the team from last year Michael St.Croix scored to make it somewhat respectable as the game ended 4-1.

Hopefully the Oil Kings can get some revenge tonight as they take on Red Deer again this time in Red Deer.

That's all for now I'm Avry and I'm gone!

BLF

BLF, the initals of one Brett Lorenzo Favre. He's coming back again. Minny? Maybe. Green Bay, in a perfect world, yes but not this season. Winnipeg Blue Bombers? Get of the glue. Scottish Claymores? Oh wait NFL Europa is gone. Oh well, a man can dream cant he?

Penny Hardaway comeback

I know people are poking fun at the fact that Penny wants to play again in the NBA for the Heat with the super trio of Bosh, Wade, and Lebron. Remember this, he's focused now get him into a training camp and the talk of 'hes 39 and hasn't played since 2007" may disappear. Remember this to, the majority of those who laugh at him for wanting to come back Penny could cross you up and dunk on you 24/7, 365 days a year, its not like he's completely forgotten how to play. Dominique Wilkins can still dunk at 47 when playing in NBA legends games so Penny wanting back in at 39 is not all that insane. Penny could truly contribute coming off the bench, I just hope that we also see the return of Lil' Penny too.

What the Edmonton Eskimos need to do vs the Winnipeg Blue Bombers tommorow

Score in the 4th quarter, plain and simple that's it. The Esks have not scored at all in the 4th quarter. How do you go three games of a CFL season and not score in the 4th? For crying out loud in this league you get a half a point practically for tying your shoes right. This week 4 game is just what the doctor ordered to get their first win of the season and move to 1-3. No Buck Pierce at QB and a shaky Steven Jyles replacing him, if the Esks cant capitalize on this game well then they have just made the season harder on themselves. I'm calling a 28-17 win for the Esks because if Ricky Ray and Fred Stamps can find their grove again like they almost did for the entire game vs Saskatchewan well then it will be a long night for the Bombers come Saturday.

Soft part 3 (The MLB)

Well, im back with part 3 of soft and this week its the MLB's turn for me to rip. What's soft about they MLB? well lets start with the owners and their refusal to put a salaray cap in baseball, its plain ludicrous that the Yankees can go out and spend close to $1 Billion dollars on players while the Florida Marlins spend just barley over $20 million and are more competitive than the Bronx Bombers. When will owners learn that buying every superstar does not help you win championships! THERE ARE TOO MANY EGO'S IN THE CLUBHOUSE FOR THE PLAYERS TO COME TOGETHER TO WIN A TITLE! With a team like the Yankees, their players are thinking more about having "relations" with Madonna then scooping up that groud ball and getting the throw to first. Whats another issue with the MLB? The MLB, needs to work out the instant replay in the game, the MLB has gotten it right with instant replays for homeruns but what about the instant replays for say plays at the plate?! Major League baseball, one of the many leagues that thinks they can satisfy fans problems by fixing one problem and sweeping the rest of them under the rug thinking that the fans will be fine with the one problem fixed. HEY BUD SELIG FANS ARE NOT STUPID WAKE UP AND GET A NEW TOUPE YOU PUPPET FOR THE GREEDY OWNERS AND GROW SOME BACK BONE! IF YOU HAD ONE YOU WOULDNT HAVE CALLED A TIE IN THE ALL STAR GAME IN 2002!
Thats all for the rip on Major League Baseball, I think I got all my rage out.

Soft part 2 (the NFL)

Well, I'm back with part 2 of soft, this time I'm ripping the National Football League.
Where to start with this league? I say lets start with the fact that too many players in this league are out of control. Too many NFL players are allowed to run wild with no boundaries and end up getting themselves into stupid sitautions that can land them in jail or worse (ex:Pacman Jones in the strip club and Plaxico Burress shooting himself in the leg), what happened to managment/coaches telling these guys to be back in the hotel room by midnight or else its a $1000 fine or you dont play in the next game? Its a shame that too many teams are afraid of what the players may do if they are "leashed", teams in the NFL need to get rid of the guys that dont care about the team and only want to party more often than they do now. There are many players in the NFL who have drug charges in the off season and come back to training camp as if nothing happened. NOW THAT IS EMBARRASING drugs can land you in jail and kill you just like shooting a gun recklessly so why d0 these guys get off easier than others with the law and teams? Many factors could play into why these guys who get drug charges get off easier position, color, what team they play on, what their name is...... All NFL teams should get rid of these junkies and wild wild west gunmen and I really do not care what their name is the NFL says that they have rules in place to truly ban players for life for drug charges or behavior that is not benefical to the team or league SURE YOU DO, Pacman Jones could mess up about 2 more times and all NFL commisioner Roger GOONdell would say is "well Adam (real name of Pacman Jones) needs to get himself sraight or else we will do something". The second reason why I'm ripping this league is the man in charge Roger GOONdell (actually Goodell) this idiot first of all takes the Pro Bowl out of Hawaii and moves it to Miami hey Roger the reason it was in Hawaii is becuase it was supposed to be A VACATION FOR THE PLAYERS, COACHES AND COMMENTATORS OF THE LEAGUE! Most players in the NFL are from Miami! My goodness how in the world did he replace Paul Tagliabu? Wait there is more, this idiot takes away constant football in Europe by shutting down NFL Europa and giving once a year games in England, does that make any sense? PEOPLE IN EUROPE WERE GOING TO NFL EUROPA GAMES IDIOT!
I've ripped this league enough anymore and I may punch a hole through my laptop I'm getting so mad typing about what has gone wrong with the NFL.
Thats all for now, next week I'll be back with my rip on the MLB.
