1. I think with the NHL teams holding their training camps a week later than usual has really hurt all teams in the CHL. Everyone is affected and most games felt like preseason games.
2. I think because of players missing to NHL camps, teams should wait a couple of games before raising their banners. On Friday in Lethbridge there were only 9 players on their roster that were a part of last years' team. Sure it was great for the fans but having the key players from last years' long run would have been more special.
3. I think it was great growing up in Saskatchewan and listening to the radio every Sunday to hear Ron Lancaster lead the Riders to a another 4th quarter come-from-behind win.
4. I think it would have been tough to travel on the bus in the WHL in the 70's. These days some teams have satellite TV, cell phones and Internet access while traveling. Everyone needs to know everything right now.
5. I think I can't watch NASCAR anymore. The Chase for the Championship has wrecked everything. All year drivers' are just driving to qualify for the top 12 spots for a chance to win the title. The other 31 drivers are scared to crash one of those 12 cars so they're not responsible for them not winning a title. Winning races mean nothing or at last not as much as they should. Even the Bristol night race was boring.
6. I think the Ryder Cup is the best golf event to watch. It would be great to hear the American announcers comments if there was a European player acting like Boo Weekley.
7. I think it was disturbing to see the Riders' fans throw stuff at the BC Lions. But there must be more to the story. Someone must have did something to create the situation.
8. I think that summer wasn't long enough.
9. I think I am really looking forward to October baseball.
10. I think it's going to be different to see Kris Lazaruk in a Rocket's uniform on October 5th.
