		<description><![CDATA[On November 18th at the Teeswater Curling Club&#8217;s Open House, Richard Elliot presented Paul Ruetz a cheque on behalf of the former Teeswater Archery Club to put towards the club.
The money will go towards the youth program which will be free, running Friday nights from 6:00 to 7:30 starting January 13th and run until the end of March.
Curling is a great alternative winter sport that a lot of youth don&#8217;t get to experience. It is a fun and easy sport to learn. No equipment is required except clean running shoes as the club provides brooms and sliders. Children from ages 10 and up will learn the basics of curling, develop their skills as well as sportsmanship and teamwork.
The Teeswater Curling Club is run by volunteer power, so we appreciate any financial donations. We love the sponsorship local businesses have provided over the years for our various spiels and events.
If interested ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been a soccer coach/co-coach a few years now.
As I&#8217;d written earlier, Sunday, August 17th  was the big year-end  U10 tournament in Hanover for the Saugeen Mixed Youth League.  My team, the South Bruce Red “Fireballs” won two of their three games.  Essentially coming 2nd  on the &#8216;B&#8217; side, and therefore going home with a bronze metal, (just like the 2nd place &#8216;A&#8217; side winners).
We were beaten by Cargill Blue.  Both teams played well.  Played hard.  My kids just couldn&#8217;t get anything passed their goalie!  Laurie added that the goalie had never played, (organized), soccer until this season.  Wow!  Stellar performance kiddo!!
So far, curiosity hadn&#8217;t got the best of me the other 3 years of tournaments. I&#8217;m usually ready to head home  no matter how we placed.  I&#8217;ve been happy my kids did their best. One year ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Judy said it well this morning &#8211; &#8220;Each choice we make causes a ripple effect in our lives, when things happen to us, it is the reaction you choose that makes the difference between the sorrows of our past, and the joy in our future&#8230;&#8221;
This morning the hockey world is reeling once again at the sudden and untimely death of a young NHL player. Like the recent death of Derek Boogarde, yesterday&#8217;s passing of Rick Rypien makes all of us step back for a moment and try to imagine the pressure these young people are under to perform.
I watched &#8216;Ripper&#8217; Rypien for several years as a Canuck &#8211; a huge presence in a very small body &#8211; taking on the heavyweights of the league night after night. I cheered when he emerged from a scrap, arms waving high in victory, half his equipments left behind at centre ice. I booed ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The SouthBruce Red U10 soccer team, the “Fireballs” played their last regular game Tuesday August 9 at home.  A loss set them into 10th place out of 16 teams in the league.  Not a true reflection of how consistently they played however,  as this team &#8216;floated&#8217; around 8th place most of the season!
Sunday in the year-end tournament of the Saugeen Mixed League at Hanover, SBR Fireballs played like champions!  Their first match, against the mighty Mildmay Green was won handily at 4 – 0.  Goals scored by Natalie Fischer, Erica Ruetz and a pair by Garrett Curran! With their confidence stoked and an hours&#8217; break to refresh themselves,  SBR went on to beat a very tough Walkerton White 3 – 0.  Goals this game were scored by Natalie, Erica, and McKinley “Queeny” Turnbull.
With storm clouds and thoughts of gold metals on the horizon, the Fireballs charged into their third game ...]]></description>

Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
- Simon &#38; Garfunkel 'Sounds of Silence' (1970) 
My Dad and I were excited when the NHL granted Vancouver a franchise. I was 12.
Toronto and Montreal were light years away from our house on the beach. It was time for us to have a &#8216;hometown&#8217; team we could call our own. And from the first time &#8216;Kurt&#8217; pulled the C over his head and skated out onto the ice we were Canuckleheads.
Those first years Vancouver iced a team of castoffs, the dregs of the league nobody wanted or the over the hill ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
Gary Bettman hates Canada, right? The NHL has already decided that Boston is going to win the Cup rather than those dope-smoking Vancouver people, right?
After all it has been 18 years since the Cup came north of the border and heaven knows we don&#8217;t want LotusLand on The Pacific to take possession of Lord Stanley&#8217;s Mug before Burke&#8217;s Army in the Big Smoke!
The recent injury to Horton and subsequent suspension of Aaron Rome has given plenty of fuel to the conspiracy theorists as to the &#8216;real&#8217; motives of the NHL.
But first the facts&#8230;

a. The hit was late &#8211; almost a full second late after Horton had passed the puck.
b. Horton was in a vulnerable position.
c. The hit was NOT a headshot.
d. The hit was NOT a blindside.
c. The injury to Horton was serious.
d. Rome was very contrite.
e. Rome was also the victim of a dirty hit in the San Jose ...]]></description>

Earlier today the National Hockey League announced the sale of the Atlanta Thrashers to True North Sports and Entertainment, with the team to play in Winnipeg beginning in the 2011 &#8211; 2012 season (subject to approval by the leagues Board of Governors)!
Well, it&#39;s about time!
For those born after 1996, The Winnipeg Jets were a professional hockey team based in Winnipeg, that played in both the World Hockey Association (WHA) and the National Hockey League (NHL) from 1972 to 1996. Due to mounting financial troubles, in 1996 the franchise moved to Phoenix, Arizona and became the Phoenix Coyotes.
During their playing history the Jets were three-time winners of the WHA Championship (The AVCO Cup) and had a number of record holders, including:

Most goals in a season: Teemu Selanne, 76 (1992&#8211;93) (NHL rookie record)
Most assists in a season: Phil Housley, 79 (1992&#8211;93)
Most points in a season: Teemu Selanne 132 ...]]></description>

Round 4 of the NHL playoffs start next week.
This is it, the final two teams left standing after the conference quarterfinals, semi-finals and finals, East vs. West for all the marbles. Or in the case of the NHL, Lord Stanley&#39;s Cup.
Since 1993 the Cup has headed south of the border. But this year Canada has a chance to reclaim THE Cup, with the Vancouver Canucks having already secured their place in the finals.
Now I am a Canucks fan, have been since Orland Kurtenbach first pulled the Rink and Stick with the white &#39;C&#39; over his head and skated out onto the ice at the Coliseum. I am an unabashed Canucklehead, a fanatic who has lived through the dark days when the team was made up of cast-offs from the other franchises, the towel waving of Roger Neilsen, the heartbreak of 1994.
But more so I am a hockey fan.
I started this ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Lord Stanley&#39;s Mug is once again up for grabs, with the first round set to begin in a couple of days.
This year we have a dearth of Canadian teams competing for OUR trophy &#8211; Vancouver and Montreal &#8211; with both having a tough road ahead of them if they plan to sip from the Stanley Cup in June.
In the first round Vancouver runs up against longtime nemesis, the Chicago Blackhawks. While the Canucks were President&#39;s Cup winners this year and the &#39;Hawks slid into the playoffs on the last day of the season, all bets are off when these two hit the ice. Even though I am probably a wee bit biased, Vancouver still looks to be too strong and deep for a Hawks team that was basically dismantled after winning last years Cup. I pick Vancouver in 6.
Montreal also comes upon an old nemesis in the first round &#8211; ...]]></description>
