Day 67 – December 29th

A day of sports today, my undefeated streak at TAC is still alive with a 3-1 win over Dev, however my shoulder is now agony, back to back matches do not appear to be agreeing with me and I am almost certain this will be my final year of playing squash, I’ll see what Wellington is like after the renovation and then make a final decision. I am not overly keen in toiling in some minor leagues as my skills diminish and doubt I will be able to return to the level I was playing at in 2005/06.

More weights today, abs and biceps…….my muscle gain plan at least appears to be going well………….I will list the other sports news of the day in the order it occurred.

Basketball: The Raptors beat the defending champion San Antonio in San Antonio late Friday Night…….plan that parade, this is beautiful thing. Good 1 Bad 0

Hockey: Team Canada looses at the world junior hockey championships for the first time in 3 years, they will still qualify for the medal round so will have a shot at the medals however the undefeated streak is over. Good 1 Bad 1

Hockey: New York 6 Toronto 1…….yes you read that correctly the Toronto Maple Leafs have been spanked 6-1 in there own building this is a beautiful thing. Good 2 Bad 1

Basketball: The Raptors have been crushed in Houston, after the win in San Antonio it was probably too much to ask for the Raptors to win in Houston the next day but you win some you lose some. Good 2 Bad 2……….it will be decided by the Patriots Game.

Football: The Patriots have done it coming from behind to win a close one in New York, they complete the regular season 16-0 given the NFL is probably the most competitive league in North American sports this is quite remarkable although it will mean very little if they don’t win the next 3 and claim the super bowl.  Randy Moss and Tom Brady get the touchdown catch and pass records on the same play, I wonder who gets to keep the ball from that particular play?  Other records most points in a season, although if you win all your games I guess that would pretty much be a given.

Good 3 Bad 2……….it was close but good has triumphed a little like the Jedi, who came back from a beating by the Empire in episode 6 of the Star Wars trilogy that was unsurprisingly called Return of the Jedi.

Mood for the day 8 out of 10
