In a previous entry on my blog (Florida Panther Season Ticket) I talked about the Panthers. Here’s more news. I finally got an e-mail asking if I was going to renew. Here’s my edited reply: We had talked before and you were going to call me back. It’s been about eight weeks. Anyway, that’s beside […]
Hello! Last week an exciting beta test began for a small group of hockey fans. Today, I am pleased to open the beta test for everyone — all hockey fans are welcome. I’ll put the URL at the bottom of this post, but read on first. I’ve created a Message Board System running phpBB — […]
INTRODUCTION Originally written in my blog was this bit about the Panthers: Whither Yon NHL Florida Panthers? in which I wondered what the hell was wrong with the Florida Panthers and endeavoured to point out some of the things they’ve screwed up. Naturally, the response was tepid — apparently unless I am writing about Why […]
It’s time for me to weigh in on two topics. And, I’m going to go out on a limb here by publicly trashing the appropriate people. I made two posts on my Panthers List. I have edited them and am putting them here for the whole world. (It’d be better if comments were posted to […]

If it was determined after an unspecified period of time that the deal wasn’t working, the agreement would be converted to the […]
Yesterday, I went to Estero, Florida to watch two ECHL teams play (Florida Everblades v Texas Wildcatters). I got my minor league hockey fix, had fun, and spent most of the day driving back and forth from Miami to Estero. I was for the Wildcatters and, happily, they won. Yay. Today, I watched football all […]
In the current “The Hockey News” there is a full-page article on John Kerry. As it turns out he’s a true hockey fan and was a player for some years. He still ice skates recreationally. Yet another reason to save America and not vote for Shrub. Kerry played a charity game earlier this year with […]
Here’s a subject near and dear to my heart. This is an OPINION piece dammit. The NHL Lockout. First, let’s start with the fact that the owners are low-life scum, the players’ union is low-life scum. The commissioner is scum, and the NHLPA boss is scum. So, what we have is a pond (frozen) full […]
