Canada: Day One

Today we're traveling from St. Louis to Winnipeg via Toronto. Toronto. Home of the hockey playing blue Maple Leafs. Hector told me that we're putting maple syrup on everything this trip. Pancakes. Maple syrup. Turkey sandwiches. Maple syrup. Tim Horton's donuts. Maple syrup. Soooo Toronto. If you look at a map, our trip isn't exactly a straight line to Winni from the Lou but it's the end point that is the most important part. Winnipeg. The home of tomorrow's US Women's National Team World Cup game against Sweden. Sweden. Home of blond ski bunnies and a decent soccer team coached by one Pia Sundhage. Pia. The former coach of the US Women's Team who, after watching their first game against Australia on Monday, decided to pick on my girl Carli Lloyd. Big mistake lady, Carli is coming for you. Carli. Strong midfielder who can score, can break up the other team's attack and who is basically a badass. In the parallel universe where I play for the National Team, I am Carli Lloyd.

Grammar? Who needs grammar. It's time to start parlez vous-ing some francais anyway.
