Another practice today, but no shoulder pads this time. Nothing exceptional to report... we installed a few more defensive calls and honed our punt returns in anticipation for the upcoming preseason game. We have, purposely, done zero game planning for this upcoming game. We are simply taking it in stride and treating it as part of camp. I think this is a smart approach, as it allows us to continue advancing as a team without worrying about playing specifically to another club. That would indeed be a waste of time at this point.
I received another taste of both Calgary and the kindness of the veterans this afternoon. Terrance Patrick (TP) took me out for wings post practice with several other older players. It was nice to do something a little different and just relax without having to worry about an upcoming meeting or practice. I had a great time just hanging out and talking about the city, apartments and the season. I think at this point it really is time to start looking for a place to live. The people here are kind and polite beyond reason.
An interview I gave yesterday for TSN (I guess it's the Canadian equivalent of ESPN?) is now available online here. My old man would say that I am speaking too quickly in this video. Hi Dad. You will have to install the Microsoft ActiveX plugin to view it, but a prompt should appear requesting that you do so when you load the page. Turn off popup blockers so this prompt isn't stifled.

Welcome
I've created this blog to help keep my friends and family back home up to date on what is happening with me in Calgary. As such, the entries in this blog will primarily concern me and my reflections upon events here. This might make my entries sound self-centered, but I am assuming that you are here to hear how I am doing and what I am thinking... so oh well. Feel free to post comments/questions and I will try to address them promptly.

You're only speaking too quickly for Jersey City natives. The fact that you're speaking proper English is an issue with that same genre anyway, so don't worry about it.
Morgan is pretty amazed at your ability to alphabetize the letters of various words. She's inspired to shoot Ivy. I think we're getting a better perspective of what is actually learned at Ivy League schools. Couldn't you have saved your dad a few bucks and attended Branchburg Community College, read a few "Classics", alphabetized a few words, and then off to a lucrative career in construction?
Great stuff, Anthony. I put up a link to the video so friends from your Dartmouth days can find it. Keep working hard and "Believe You Belong."
