@CraigBaird Really enjoy your posts and the transcanada highway book. I am pretty sure it was Denis Savard and not Serge that was the spinorama guy.

@oakbayballerz So close for the second time in the last three years to going to the final. If only the games were 39 minutes long!

@BCSchoolSports I thought there was a noisemaker rule. Those LAM pots are giving me a headache. Not quite as bad as the horns of West Van two years ago but…

@DenisBeausoleil @bcboysbball Wow!

@blinkwriter Report cards for sure are on the list which is sort of in the same category. There are two others that are more complicated. One is about actuarial tables and the other has to do with seeing my approach was going to go out of style.

@JPosnanski Years ago a grade three student in another class at the school I taught made a drawing about baseball. It had written across the top, “I love baseball because anything can happen!” Every game I go to I know I am going to see something I have never seen before.

@mzlizn @VaughnPalmer @grok Excellent question and if Grok is accurate then the settlement hardly seems extravagant. A pretty fair deal.

@htsumura @SpecSrBoysBball @BasketballDover @bcboysbball @SteveEwen @LangleyEvents Kudos to the players and coaching staffs to the way these players act as well. As an Oak Bay fan I was cheering against these teams all year but never disliked them. They play hard but clean and are so likable for their attitude and sportsmanship.

@htsumura @SpecSrBoysBball @BasketballDover @bcboysbball @SteveEwen @LangleyEvents After watching the tournament I felt what made both Spectrum and Dover truly great teams was how they trust their role players. You can see the trust both in how stars interact with the role players and in the confidence that the role players have when called upon to contribute.

@LangleyEvents @bcboysbball Fantastic job on the game presentation! The pregame montages are amazing and the player introductions are always fun. Such a great event!

@BCSchoolSports A really enjoyable final to watch. Two skilled teams playing a clean and sportsmanlike but tough contest. Congrats to both teams!
