Is the share program still on? I believe so as this website is still active Rider Shares but you really don’t hear about it anymore. Did they price them to high? Maybe. Would $100.00 been a more magical number for them? I guess we will never know, but I hope they continue to promote it. I just have not heard much - in fact nothing - about it for quite some time now. Note to self: Talk about shares on Roundtable tomorrow night. If I have not confirmed already, Sportsline is at the 4 Seasons Sports Palace on Arcola. Come by and say Hi to Frenzy and me, and for goodness sakes try the ribs.
Thursday Thoughts
- I can’t drive 55
- Geddy Lee, you are Canadian man; how about a damn full Canadian tour dude?
- I hate the Edmonton Eskimoes
- How come sometime on the radio the bad words are bleeped but other times they are not? Things that make you go Hmmm (that song blew).
- MoLo will be a fantastic middle linebacker this year, or should I say again this year.
- Was the Sopranos ending whacked or cool? Discuss.
- I want to see Luca Congi punting this year. I have no dislike of Jamie, but I wanna see the kid prove many out there wrong.
- What the H E double hockey sticks are the Tragically Hip singing about half the darn time?
- I have seen, both on the lake at Wascana and in the air above, a huge flock of pelicans recently. Very cool. There was also a huge flock in Moose Jaw as well.
- I saw 29 Rider plates today.
- Is it just me, or does the Stanley Cup not belong in any of the last three places it has been? Florida, North Carolina and California. I’m not saying the teams did not deserve it, but that’s just wrong.
- I am officially sick of Aerosmith - still really like the music but good grief they are on all stations all the time. Yes I know not CKRM
- I saw a very beautiful deer near Silton last week.
- Kerry J should have a good year in 07 and, if not, Marcus will be fine. And also, Marcus should get some playtime.
- Does Scott Schultz deserve more acclaim then he gets?
- Ron Estay is a good guy. I like his acting skills and have you seen him lately? He has lost a lot of weight and he looks very fit and trim. Maybe he can fill in for Nate this year.
- Crack is whack.
- Pretty darn tied of hearing about Paris Hilton.
That’s enough for today I guess, there are many more but it’s a long season.

Today’s Lyrics
“I'm goin' way down south where the big blue agave grow, Takin' a weekend trip down to Baja, Mexico! Where you can drink the water, but don't ya eat the ice, Take your vitamin "T" with salt 'n lemon slice ...”
Wahoo! Game day tomorrow, or today, depending on when you read this.

A Rush tour through all of Canada would kick ass. I seen them in Montreal way back when I was 16 and they were great. Esks suck. Mo Lloyd is an animal and will do great between Reggie and TJ. Sopranos ending sucked, if they were gonna fade it should have had a gunshot. And I too want to see Luca prove the haters wrong. I said last year that he could do the job if he had a punting coach and he got one in the offseason and he looks great. I don't think The Hip know what they are singing about most of the time. Aerosmith still rocks but then I don't listen to much Regina radio. You know I'm much more of a Marcus fan than a Joseph fan so I'm hoping Marcus takes the starting job. And if he doesn't I'm confident that we won't see the starter in games longer than he should be this year. Schultz is fantastic. Estay is a great guy. And Paris is way past her best before date. And of course the lyrics are Mas Tequilla by Hagar.
Whoo...Hoo...It's GAME DAY!!!!
I'm bit rusty here Joe, what time does the pregame progaming start.... :-)
I love the sound and smell of Nitro and Alcohol burning engines. Unfortunately I haven't been to SIR in a couple of decades.
I wonder if that heave still exists in the left lane. Many, many moons ago the jet cars had to becareful in that lane in fear they would become airborne... :-((.
Joe and Jo...you have yourselves a great day eh!!!
Phil
