1) Random woman at the gym
As I was jogging around the track, I noticed a young girl on the stationary bike talking on her cell phone. Honey, there's a time and a place for chatting with your friends. Why don't you concentrate on actually peddling more than three revolutions per minute and work up a sweat. If not, stay home ... others can use that bike.
2) Andrew Raycroft (Leafs goalie)
Dude, I understand that you might be getting sick and tired of constantly hearing how you sucked and were injured last year in Boston. It would probably drive me up the wall as well. But you are in a hockey-mad city. It's going to come up again and again until the season nears its end and you proove yourself ... better get used to it. The other night when you were named first star against Philadelphia and Paul Hendrick interviewed you, you acted like a dink. For those who don't know, when a Leafs player is named a star of the game, they do a quick circle on the ice as a way of appreciating the fans support and selection. One of the Leafs' stars, if one has been selected in the game, then skates over and is interviewed by Paul Hendrick over the P.A. so the crowd can hear. Hendrick's second and usually last question was how he feels about overcoming his troubles from last year to play so solidly this year. Raycroft says, "Yeah, thanks for always bringing it up," and skates away. Classy! You can bitch and complain all you want to a roomful of reporters but not after you've been selected a star of the game by the fans and your spoiled-brat remarks can be heard throughout the arena. Grow up!
Honourbale Mention
• the girl at the gym who did a few laps while holding her purse. Get a locker!
• the guy at the gym (apparently dinks congregate there) who walks the track in his cords. Perhaps some athletic gear for Christmas?
Rant over.
