Hello all fellow Winnipeg Jets fans...after more than 15 long NHL seasons without our beloved hockey team, we faithful of the Winnipeg Jet tradition have been more than rewarded for our steadfastness with a fantastic new hockey team.
I have to say that in this age of instantaneous electronic communication, supporting and keeping updated on everything going on with our favorite hockey team is easier than ever! I remember in the early days of the original Jets how tough it was to stay connected with the team as a die-hard fan living way out here in Alberta. I can recall many winter nights straining to pick out the sounds of the play-by-play on CJOB AM as it crackled across the prairies. Now days, it is as simple as turning on our impressive HD televisions (with TSN Jets subscribed, of course!) or internet to stay completely up to speed with the goings on of our awesome team. Of course, I still try the old fashioned way of listening in on AM radio and I have a fair amount of success catching the TSN 1290 broadcasts all the way out here some nights!
It has impressed me so much of late to see how many of us Alberta based Winnipeg Jet fans there are out here. I have a nice little network of fellow fans with whom I can share my passion and endless devotion to all things JETS. I have to admit that there still seems to be more of the original Jets jerseys and shirts floating about out here but the new logo and design are starting to pop up here and there on the streets of Alberta.
Here's hoping that my musings on all things related to being a fanatic of the Winnipeg Jets will entertain you in some way. I just had to share my enthusiasm for this team with all of you!
Load the missiles...it's time to light the afterburners!
GO JETS GO!!!
