That is absolutely cute. :yay: I call Toby Toboo after Tofu sometimes. Ahaha. If I get another pet, he/she will definitely get a cool name like that.

I watch sports that I do not like to play, small exception for soccer and kitten licking your hand. Okay, so the last part is not related but it happened as I typed. Got to love pets and their odd behaviour at times. Anyways, I think people get so worked up about the teams winning and what not. People are too driven with competition of being better, and attraction to said player that the purpose of the game is lost. Are we not suppose to watch and participate because it makes us happy? Or for the love of it? Some people go overboard and it is quite scary. I mean, breathe, it is a game and not death. To sum it up, I rather watch hockey with my cousin when he gets free tickets than play the game. I suck at anything with hand eye coordination. Well, I do not exactly fail at badminton...but it comes close enough. :died: <abbr><em>Cindy’s last blog post..<a href="http://oh-aspiration.org/?p=590" rel="nofollow">All But Sweet Nothings</a></em></abbr> I am complete opposite.

I'll read the news about it, but only so I can actually carry on a conversation about something with people that I interact with. :) Just wait until the Whitecaps officially become a major league soccer team, then everyone will be going on about them! (I think it's 2010 or something like that it'll happen?) <abbr><em>Michelle’s last blog post..<a href="http://imaginarysunshine.com/index.php/2009/05/01/theres-never-a-wish-better-than-this/" rel="nofollow">There’s never a wish better than this</a></em></abbr> I ignore professional sports teams for the most part.

Vancouver has many "professional" sports team that are "mainstream" those teams would be, Vancouver Canucks (NHL - Hockey), Vancouver Giants (WHL - Hockey), B.C. Lions (CFL - Football) and Vancouver Canadians (NW "A" League - Baseball). It is just currently Hockey Season, so it's time to cheer on the sport team of the moment. I am a huge Canucks fan, always have been always will be, next will be CFL season so I will be cheering for the Lions. I am only into professional level Baseball and I dont have one team that I follow. I just dont follow any other sports than what I have mentioned. To each their own, if your not interested in hockey and you live in hockey town I still think there is something wrong with them. At least follow along and know the scores as you are out numbered and that is basically what everyone is talking about (unless it's the N1H1 virus) - ha! <abbr><em>Aidan’s last blog post..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Daydreamznet/~3/BuIDFIUlycY/" rel="nofollow">Happy Earth Day!</a></em></abbr> I don’t think we can be friends anymore … :) Sorry.
