What an unbelievably bad weekend. I'm left shaking my head, throwing my arms into the air, a famous quote comes to mind: "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?" (My God my God, why hast thou forsaken me?)
My first indication that this weekend might suck began when the Jays lost two against the Orioles, eventually they would be SWEPT. That sucks.
Then on Saturday morning, the Raptors played some good high-tempo ball against the much hated Nets, and came up short, suffering a narrow defeat. That really sucked.
Then we took in some Hitmen action on ShawTV only to see them get pounded TWICE to go down 2-0 to the Medicine Hat Tigers. This especially sucked.
Honourable mention to the Calgary Roughnecks who were beaten in the playoffs, YET AGAIN, by the Sting, ending Calgary's hope for an NLL championship.
But, by far, the biggest kick in the package was the Calgary Flames going down to the comical Detroit Red Wings. A franchise who can't even fill their own building during the first round of playoffs, clearly they are too arrogant to care about the first round. A franchise that traded to get dirtiest player in the history of the NHL, no need to mention his name. This capped my "weekendus horribilus", as the Queen might say.
What I should have done is taken Monday off and watched the entire works of Will Ferrell. His biting satire would have set me straight.
Aw crap.
Beer. You are still my friend, aren't you? At least I know YOU will never let me down.
