Anyone is welcome to submit a Guest Blog Entry to torontomike.com. I received the following submission earlier today.
Although I do not currently enjoy watching Hockey, I can say without a shadow of a doubt that I miss the golden days of hockey with Gretzky & Kurri .... back when physically ravaging your opponent was not considered entertainment. Back when we Winnipeggers had our Jets. This strike, painful as it may be, may serve to ground the NHL and help them come to the realization that just because American cities are bigger, it does not necessarily mean better markets. There are serious talks going on here that a group of investors are trying to bring back our Jets. Daydream? Maybe, but for the NHL to be successful again they have to take it back to where it all started. Canada.
And hey, while the strike is on, you can always watch NBA!!! Now that it's become official that Vince Carter has demanded a trade, things around the L could get very interesting. And with all the roster moves and the unfirndly split between Kobe & Shaq, this season looks to be chock full of entertainment goodness. Who knows, heads might even roll.

I suppose I could always spend more quality time with the family. Perish the thought.
