May 2008 ArchivesI've rearranged my work schedule this summer so that I can come to your town. 've moved my Barbeque forecast from Fridays to Thursdays. I did this so I could get out on the road on Fridays and visit area towns during their community festivals. Many of the surrounding communities have great celebrations every summer and I want to do my weather forecast from these towns. If your community has a special festival let me know. I can... Wowwwww.....
One final practice. For the Chiefs, it was the last chance to take to the practice ice as a team for 2007-08 as the team worked out for about 45 minutes Saturday morning at the Kitchener Auditorium. It was the final practice in the careers of captain Chris Bruton, Judd Blackwater and David Rutherford. So much for a day off. After yesterday's trip to Toronto, the Chiefs were right back to work this morning as they get ready for theee biggest game of their lives on Sunday with the Memorial Cup final. The Chiefs got to take a break from hockey on Thursday as they took off from Kitchener and traveled to Toronto to take in the sights of Canada's largest city. The team started the day eating lunch at Wayne Gretzky's restaurant. It's in a great location just down the street from the Skydome, where the Toronto Blue Jays play. At the main entrance... Now that the Chiefs have made the Memorial Cup final, the only question remains is who will they play? Spokane saw to it that it wouldn't be Gatineau, as the Chiefs eliminated the Quebec champs 3-1 last night. Now it comes down to either Ontario League champ and host Kitchener or OHL representative Belleville. Spokane was in an absolute battle with both teams this past weekend, beating the hometown Rangers 2-1 Sunday, and the B... It's been quite a ride for the Spokane Chiefs this season, but who would have thought in August that the Chiefs would be playing for the Memorial Cup championship? Well Spokane, that's exactly what the Chiefs are doing Sunday when they face the winner of Friday's Belleville-Kitchener semi-final. Spokane eliminated the Quebec Junior Major Hockey League champion Gatineau Olympiques Tuesday with a solid 3-1 victory. Like the 1991... Monday was a cold, wet and dreary day in Kitchener, a far cry from the warmer weather in Spokane. The temperatures hit the low 40's here last night and with the wind chill it felt like winter again. Why not? We're still playing hockey aren't we? The Chiefs enjoyed a nice day off after a huge win over tournament favorite Kitchener on Sunday. Spokane went through a light workout at the practice rink at Sportsworld down the road from the ... It was billed as a possible Memorial Cup championship preview and Sunday's Chiefs game with Kitchener certainly lived up to that billing. Hopefully the result is a preview of things to come as well, as Spokane edged Kitchener 2-1 Sunday to run the Chiefs record to 2-0 at the Cup. Well, after 10 days away from a game, the Memorial Cup began in earnest for the Spokane Chiefs Saturday as they took on the Belleville Bulls of the Ontario League. Just one more day and the Chiefs will finally take to the ice in the Memorial It has been a crazy couple of seasons of weather. Beginning with winter, the winter that wouldn't end, the second snowiest winter ever. Then the Spring that couldn't get sprung. March and April seemed like a continuation of winter and now we are jumping straight into mid summer like weather... it's crazy. Temperatures will rise to around 90 degrees on Saturday. Of course this 20-25 degree increase in temperatures is having a pr... Now that the Chiefs have settled in at this year's Memorial Cup site, Thursday was the day to get back to work. Spokane practiced for the first time since arriving in Kitchener and by all indications, they look ready for Saturday afternoon's opener with Belleville. Before practice, Rogers Sportsnet, who is nationally televising the Cup across Canada, had the team in for what are called head shots for their broadcast. That way when they... The excitement is really starting to build for the Memorial Cup as the Chiefs arrived here about 1:30 p.m Pacific Standard Time yesterday (May, 14). The team flew out on a charter flight at around 10 a.m. (PST) - and I have to tell you, if you've never flown on a charter, then try. It's like having an entire airplane to yourself. The team really had the feeling that they had hit the big time. Normally, the team i... When it comes to the most flavorful steaks around it's hard to beat Spencer's, Spokane's premiere steakhouse inside the downtown Double Tree Hotel. During a recent dinner between the news anchors, station management and news consultants there were no complaints, except that the relaxed atmosphere put us four overly stuffed news types a little behind schedule when we returned to the station to anchor the late evening newscasts. So, pla... |
