The 5 a.m. Something or Other
March 1, 2004
Captain's Log: 5:13 a.m.
If your reading this and know me to any extent you realize that 5 a.m. and I don't necessarily get along too well. In fact there are only two reasons why I would be up at this hour:
1) I am not yet asleep - some project has spun out of control and before I know it the sun is coming up...
2) I am traveling - Much worse than reason one. Reason one can be rectified with three good steps and a swan dive into the nearest horizontal sleeping device.
Well obviously since your reading this I am awake and therefore on the road again. My monthly trip to Calgary is upon me and it is a doozy (11 days) and as usual I am on the earliest flight to leave Montreal, which meant an ungodly cab ride to Trudeau Airport in the blackness of 4:30 a.m.. But there was a little pot of gold at the end of that rainbow. I arrived at Moe's, a little breakfast joint in the terminal, to scarf down some eggs when I realized one good thing about being up that early. The televisions were tuned to ESPN and I was privy to an edge of your seat golf match. Tiger and Davis Match Play Repeat? No no...I am talking the real deal, the Putt-Putt skins game. In case you haven't seen it, I will sum it up for you. It is a bunch of guys getting way too excited about mini-golf. The crowd hanging on every stroke, holding there breath to see if ol' Fred can judge that windmill just right. Oh well, anything to keep me awake...

Sure it is the best part of the day, because 99% of the time I am dead asleep!
The Hawks always have plenty left for the Tigers, they have to in order to overcome the guaranteed hometown officiating...

I can't believe you don't like the best part of the day!! After the Sooners, do the Hawks have anything left for the Tigers, or was Sunday just a flash in the pan ???
