Big Leaf Wins and Lots of Optimism

Well on the sports front Canada's team the Toronto Maple Leafs for the newbees are improving a HUGE win over the Rangers Saturday and a nail biter against Tampa Thursday spell good times for the Buds but some changes are still needed...man I tell listening to Joe A-L-O on 92 CITI in the am is awesome some great personalities such as Jimmy the Greek bring out some belly laughs on the way to work in the AM ..this morning he was talking about the Cincinnati Bengals and some nice comparisons on food and football such as "you can't hurry the curry" and such...just good natured "ribbing and laughing".. Joe carries the show..Coach has some good dialogue on sports and Olly and his news are superb ...
on the political front it is a time of celebration and join with friends and festive parties are everywhere..big turnouts for the Liberal family as Winnipeg Centre MP Anita Neville has her get together Sunday and Ray Simard in St B Big turnouts spell good things for the Liberal community as we move forward after an exhaustive leadership process ...the Manitoban Liberal community is alive and well...lots of discussion on Stephane naming Deputy Leader Michael Ignatieff - great move !!!! Next move should be Ray Simard as Whip and Ken Boshcoff as Natural Resources Critic..on the AGM front new date for next meeting Tuesday January 23 7 pm at Molgat Place .. everyone is singing the praises of Liberal President Sharon Appleyard .she is super and we need her for 2 more years so you heard it here first her ...lets start the move to keep her going ..ticket sales for Wednesday breakfast with Dion going very good slow start turns into a big end ...Wheat Board Single desk is here to stay and if the Tories take it down they will loose ..PERIOD!!! Adrian and Ward are here to stay!!!
Lots of talk about inclusiveness and the changes within the party new Liberal National President Poulin is really work hard to continue this with weekly meetings and calls contact and communication the key to any team
Browner Bouquet of the day ..Darryl Balasko "DB" as he is affectionately known by the large bench of pals - is a "go to guy" on policy and event management ..a great wordsmith he also knows how to bring the team to the game ..thanks for being you DB !!!

Where's the Leaf celebration tonight? Even Florida has a Cup in their future....
Give up the support of the Leafs, it's killing your street cred!

Ah..DDP yee of little faith loyalty my friend loyalty and commitment to the team - the Leafs will prevail. In transition years some chemistry in the dressing and bad starts .this season is 84 games my friend and not 24 for key guys like Raycroft, Gill and Sundin we need some leadership and unfortunately Fergy needs to admit his mistake and trade Raycroft and a marque guy..stay tuned
