There once was a man from Nantucket

Okay,so I’m not exactly from Nantucket. In fact, I’m from nowhere near Massachusetts. Instead, I come from a place where skyrocketing oil revenues don’t keep the gas below $1.30/litre, and where douchebags hang testicles off the tow-hitches of their trucks. Oh yeah, we also have two sports teams that desperately need to fire their management. That actually seems to be a common thread amongst the teams I cheer for, except for these guys who don’t even exist anymore. Anyways, since I can’t think of a better way to start, here’s an elegant bulleted list of things I like in the sports world:

•The Winnipeg Jets
•The Edmonton Oilers
•The Toronto Blue Jays
•Vernon Wells, Alex Rios, and either Adam Lind or Travis Snider being the Jays’ OF for the next 7 years.
•Bitching about Kevin Lowe, Danny Maciocia and JP Ricciardi
Diora Baird on a golf course
•The designated hitter
•The hip check
•The fact that the Blue Jays and Leafs are both being run by the same guys who ran them in 1993
Dustin McGowan’s sideburns
Mike Lowell stealing fans’ cellphones

So yeah, welcome.
