Monday the 20th was such a nice warm day that I wore shorts to work, what a difference a week makes, we are now wearing sweat shirts and jackets because it's cold and everyone is starting to catch the flu. It never fails, here in Phoenix we go from hot to cold without warning.
Well thanks to our Thanksgiving potluck get together at work, I won a pair of tickets to go see the Phoenix Coyotes play tomorrow night, it should be a good time specially since phase 1 of Westgate City Center is done, and the best part of all is that it's only 5 minutes away from home. How sweet is that?
Westgate is shaping up to be our version of the "Universal Studios City Walk", it won't look like anything you expect to find in Arizona, no adobe and or brown paints will be used, and instead vibrant colors Miami style will be used. A small fountain like the one at the Bellagio in Las Vegas has already been built, big screen TVs will be all over the place and restaurants and shops are starting to open.
As you know, Westgate is in Glendale Arizona and is home to the Cardinals, Coyotes, and I believe the Rattlers too. What I can't understand is why does a professional football team wait for so long to get out of a University football field and finally get one built just for them "Cardinal's Stadium" right? Wrong! They go and name it University of Phoenix Stadium; yeah it is food for thought isn't it. Like Rodney Dangerfield said... No respect!
Then the Glendale Arena is now Jobing.com Arena... give me a break! Remember when it used to be Dodger Stadium or New York Yankees Stadium or Angel's Stadium, well why am I ranting it could have been worse because they were actually considering for the football stadium to be named "Pink Taco" stadium.
So anyway, hopefully I will go and see the Coyotes play at their arena, which is called something else, and win tomorrow... Go Coyotes!

Dear Brother:
As I said before, "You are funny!"
Man, they still don't have their own stadium? I'd be pissed...
Elena - Mangos que me comen
Chely - Dear sister, ha ha
Battlerocker - They do have their new stadium and it's awesome but the University of Phoenix bought the name rights so it sounds as they are playing at a university stadium and not their own.
The naming rights is all about money. If Peptol Bismo was a giant money maker, we could have the Diarhea Arena.
