Hockey Is Back

Posted on October 3, 2018 by

Happy Hockey! It’s officially opening night. Can you smell it? It’s the smell of popcorn and spilled beer in a brisk environment of 13 degrees Celsius, with little kids kicking the back of your head. True story. Last year, I … Continue reading →

Figuring Out Fantasy Football

Posted on August 30, 2018 by

Major League Baseball Should Adopt A New Schedule

Posted on August 26, 2018 by
