Even the Blues hate Saskatchewan

So, Saskboy is talking smack about Canada's team*, the Vancouver Canucks, and about the great City of Vancouver in the Beautiful province of British Columbia.

I'd expect such nonsense from a Maple Leafs fan, but what does Saskatchewan have, besides a mediocre CFL franchise and a crapload of wheat?

Saskboy will be cheering for the Blues against the Canucks. Fine. But even the Blues, when there was a move afoot to move the franchise from St. Louis to Saskatoon, took one step off the plane when it landed in Regina and said hells no, we're staying in St. Louis. And if you've been to St. Louis, you know how much Regina must suck. So cheer for the Blues, Saskboy, they won't cheer for you!

Go back to rooting for your Regina Pats and leave the real hockey to the real cities. Oh, wait, the Pats are out of the playoffs? Awww...

*Sweden gets them on alternate weekends and holidays.

Smack is practically my middle name. Smackboy... not bad.

Saskatchewan already has St. Louis, we don't need their team too to be fantastic.

saskboy, uou'll forgive me if I don't have too much time for your little blog war, I'm a little busy watching MY TEAM in the playoffs...

penlan, mike, I always cheer for all the Canadian teams in the post-season. Except for the Maple Leafs. That's where I draw the line. And most years, it's not an issue...

The playoffs aren't everything... you have to win it all for it to count. Vancouver certainly won't count more than the Leafs this year.

The playoffs aren't everythingWell, with both the Maple Leafs and the Pats out, I guess you have to say that, don't you? Whatever gets you through those long, cold, boring prairie nights.

I hear they film Little Mosque on the Prairie in Toronto. Guess they didn't want to live in Saskatchewan either...

Go Habs Go!! ALL the way, to the end & then hoist Lord Stanley. :)

Neither of you 2 are going to have a chance. ;)

Ahem. There is another Canadian team in the playoffs. And after last night I might just be climbing on the bandwagon again.

"I hear they film Little Mosque on the Prairie in Toronto. Guess they didn't want to live in Saskatchewan either..."

I guess that means Vancouver was their last choice to shoot it. Toronto, and Regina picked over Vancouver...re

Well they couldn't find actors willing to live in Regina, and that was out. And if they'd picked Vancouver, the actors would have been too bright and cheerful to be believable as residents of the praries that have had their hopes and dreams beaten out of them by long years of mediocrity and boring nothingess.

Now back to your combine, saskboy, and then check on the chicken coops.

Okay, I'll enjoy organic, locally produced grains, and fresh chicken and eggs, while you enjoy your Toronto or Vancouver smog for breakfast.
