Almost 8 years ago, a younger version of me found himself heartbroken upon coming home from school one afternoon to find that local hero & noted UNC graduate Vince Carter had been traded from my beloved Toronto Raptors. In a deal that ranks among the worst in local sports history, my favourite team traded away their most skilled player of all time for what turned out to be nothing. This deal raised question marks at the time as one would think that shipping a superstar of this caliber out of town would surely bring one back. However it didn't & most fans of the team have looked back on the moment with disgust ever since. Like a bad breakup, it would forever be a moment we wouldn't look back on unless it was totally necessary. Then then this week happened.

Millionaire Shmucks & Hockey Pucks
With almost four weeks completed in October, it seems as if a large part of the local sports media is concerned with asking one question: Why aren't we playing hockey yet? As a Canadian sports fan, & self-proclaimed pessimist, I've found myself asking a different question as of late: Who cares?
More Graduated, Less Cylinder
Early yesterday morning, my mother came into my room to wake me up. I had to bus to catch & missing it wasn't an option. After figuring out what in the blue hell "It's 5:10" meant, I rolled out of bed & got ready. Yours truly had his university graduation to attend.
