Sports Bio

Fan of pro teams from Cincinnati, vividly remember the cold bowl against Fouts' Chargers, and hope I live to see some glory soon. Still haven't gotten over the Whale leaving Hartford. Jumped squarely onto the NJ Devils bandwagon at that point, but just love all things hockey.

NHL Third Jerseys for 2018-19: Several teams unveiled new third jerseys for the upcoming NHL season. The Avs tip a cap to the old time Rockies, Flyers go two-tone (no word on the return of the Cooperall pants), the Devils bring back the Green and Red, and at the risk of offering an opinion on a FPP, the 'Canes win.

So...About that Serena Cartoon: It sure feels like this is something that would have been discussed at length a few years back on SpoFi. What does the hive mind here think? Is it racist as hell, a cultural phenomenon, or a bit of both?

Report: Wild's Kirill Kaprizov rejects NHL-record contract offer

The fact that a player who is only arguably among the top 10 in the game today turned down the opportunity to be the highest paid hockey player ever is bizarre. He's no McDavid, Kuch, or MacKinnon.

How the hell did I win this thing once? Generally, I am just the comic relief, careening into open doors and tripping down open elevator shafts.

NoMich, I'm willing to bet that Monday's shellacking sold quite a bit of Horned Frogs merch.

He Who Controls the Ice Controls the Universe

We see the same shit - but to a far lesser degree - here in Reno. We have one rink owned by a nonprofit. Parents who disagree with coaching and league management decisions, or who want their kids to level up, are forced to travel to South Tahoe (1+ hour each way), Roseville, CA (~2 hours) or Vacaville, CA (~2.5 hours). When they do that, they are blocked from attending in-house hockey academies and from getting ice time for private lessons. Of course, our rink does it out of territoriality rather than pure cynical profit motive.

Hey, y'all. Been very busy the past few months setting up a new business and several other endeavors. Just thought I'd pop in to say hello. I'll try to be around more often.

Something very strange happened with my picks last week, as there is no way I would have picked against the Bengals in any week, let alone locked them to lose. Couple other selections seem counterintuitive, as well. Doesn't really matter, as I've been out of the running since about Week 3, and there is a very strong chance of user/bourbon whiskey error.
