Updating for closure: I saw one point!
Well, I'll never know if I could have gotten that cool Roger Federer picture at the 2008 Rogers Cup. He's done for this tournament, and perhaps so am I.

Greetings from the Rogers Cup
Being at the Rogers Cup in Toronto is like being at a major in golf, or an all-star game in baseball or hockey -- everybody is here. Tennis is great for that.

I admit it, Hamilton's display was pretty cool
I'm 36 going on 76 when it comes to made-for-TV "sports" events like Home Run Derby. My general attitude is, Let me know when real sports comes back.

I'd think many Sabres fans would enjoy this blog too.

A subject I'll enjoy writing about -- us!
We've had this new website for quite a while now, yet I've rarely felt inspired to write. I'm not sure why. I've enjoyed writing in the past, and I love WGR. I even wrote for years as a job before switching to radio.
Now I've got a subject I'm looking forward to writing about -- us!
