A blog of (good) advice.
Tyler Kennedy. Tyler effing Kennedy. Be honest with yourself for a few minutes. Think to the start of the season. Raise your hand if you expected Tyler Kennedy to be one of the best offensive weapons down the stretch. It's OK. I'll wait. I know I didn't expect much out of Kennedy beyond what we...

I had a number of things I wanted to talk about, but I've been having a bugger of a time putting things into words today. I started writing a different entry this morning. I just haven't had the focus I needed to put into words what I was thinking. Unfortunately, that feeling is nothing new... Continue Reading →
A lot of things have happened to me in the last ten years. A lot of things have happened the world over in the last ten years. Pretty much the entirety of the Bush administration, the first half of the Obama administration, 9/11, Iraq, Afghanistan, multiple Olympic games, all variety of other unfortunate terrorist attacks,...

I've got a full day of things today, but if I get a few moments tonight (and can let my bile recede) I will discuss this more at length. Wow. Youtube took the video down. Whatever. On to the next one.

I just wanted to take a few moments tonight to say a few personal thoughts. Avoid the Clap has been operating now for two weeks. It has been a truly wonderful experience. Some of you knew me from elsewhere, while others are just getting to know me now, but know this - I love to... Continue Reading →
Kris Letang. Wow. Just...wow. I remember watching him over the course of the season and now looking over his stat lines I am purely mystified by Letang's season. I am going to do my best to write objectively, but I want to outline some of my biases regarding Kris Letang. I was disappointed in his... Continue Reading →
Some of you know my dog. Some of you do not. I was having a hard time today thinking what I wanted to write about. The I thought "hey, my posts are usually a few thousand words, and the saying goes 'a picture is worth 1000 words,' so why not show off Leonard?" This is... Continue Reading →
