THIS IS THE TIME OF THE YEAR AS WE WE LIKE TO LOOK FONDLY ON THE PASSING YEAR. I KNOW, WE HAD TIGER..AND FEDERER AND JEROME BETTIS AT THE SUPER BOWL AND THAT OVECHKIN GOAL AND THE ENDY CHAVEZ CATCH.
BUT THIS WAS THE YEAR THAT FLOYD LANDIS WAS STRIPPED OF HIS TOUR DE FRANCE CHAMPIONSHIP FOR STEROIDS. JUSTIN GATLIN LOST HIS 100 METRE WORLD RECORD FOR STEROIDS.
THE ONLY THING THE ONCE HIGHLY REGARDED CINCINNATI BENGALS MANAGED TO DO WAS FIND 8 MEMBERS OF THEIR TEAM IN JAIL.. THE GLORIOUS CAREER OF ZINEDINE ZIDANE ENDS IN DISGRACE AFTER A HEAD-BUTT LATE IN THE WORLD CUP FINAL. MONTREAL POLICE ROUGHING UP TWO MEMBERS OF THE ALOUETTES IN A CLEAR CASE OF RACIAL PROFILING. THE CBC IN IT'S OWN STATE OF BLESSED TORONTO ISOLATION ---FAILING TO RECOGNIZE THE IMPORT OF THE BERNARD GEOFFRION SWEATER RETIREMENT.
MONTREAL'S MEDIA HOUNDING SAKU KOIVU FOR HIS LACK OF FRENCH EVEN AS HE WAS TRYING TO RECOVER FROM AN EYE INJURY THAT THREATENED HIS HOCKEY LIFE.
THE ABSOLUTE FINANCIAL INSANITY THAT PREVAILS IN MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL INCLUDING THE BLUEJAYS WHO JUST COMMITED 150 MILLION DOLLARS.
RINGLEADER GOT 6 MONTHS. THERE WAS DUKE UNIVERSITY LACROSSE. BODE MILLER PARTYING HIS WAY THROUGH THE OLYMPICS. O.J. SIMPSON'S BOOK "IF I DID IT?"--BEING SERIOUSLY CONSIDERED AS A FOX TV PRIME TIME SPECIAL. SO ON BOXING DAY I'M GOING TO LINE UP AT MY FAVOURITE DEPARTMENT STORE'S RETURN-DESK AND ASK FOR A TOTAL REFUND ON 2006. AND HOPE THAT SOMEHOW THE GOOD WILL OVERRIDE THE BAD IN 2007. ANYONE CARE TO BET THINGS WILL IMPROVE?
