Behind The Box Score

Wow, I can’t believe what just happened on ESPN. A somewhat home town team, the Miami-Ohio Redhawks, just lost a total heartbreaker to Boston University, 4-3 in overtime. We got off our plane, and the Redhawks had a 3-1 lead in the third period. Sounds like they had it won, but Read the rest of this entry »

I didn’t get a chance to watch the tribute to Angels pitcher Nick Adenhart live, but I did see it on ESPN this morning.

I want to pass on my thoughts and prayers to the family of Nick Adenhart, the player who was killed in a car crash late last night.

This is the site that redirected me to it: Read the rest of this entry »

Tuesday night was my first Columbus Blue Jackets game, a crucial playoff-type game in which they beat the Predators 2-1. The game itself was awesome, and it was the first hockey game I’d seen in person since the old Columbus Chill in the early to mid 90s. I like hockey alot, and not just being a Read the rest of this entry »
