  • Speculating on Whether Regehr Should be Traded by the Flames reggie

    Based on a few comments on the Illegal Curve radio show, I put up a post on Matchsticks & Gasoline yesterday about the Flames potential to trade Regehr and why it’s time to do so.

    The article is posted here.

    Below is an excerpt from the article.

    “Now before everyone gets their guard up and says Regehr is [...]

    Here is a study that I did for Hockey Prospectus on NHL Team Architecture.  Obviously since I posted it on HP, I believe they have a great site, so definitely take a look at some of the material from their other great writers too.

  • Jay Bouwmeester: Disappointment or Not Used Properly? J-Bo

    Sometimes things just don’t work out like we thought.  Items bought on eBay looked better in the picture than when they arrive in the mail, your [...]

  • Fireman Ed Should Pour a Stiff Drink fireman ed

    Rex Ryan may be the king of the F-bombs, but he better use as many as he can during the regular season.  The Jets won’t be making the playoffs.

    The Jets used up all their luck last year.  There are no playoff-bound cakewalk games at the end of this season’s schedule.  Opposing kickers are all out [...]

  • What is Darrelle Revis Worth to the Jets? revis

    Revis Island can be a lonely place for receivers.  At the moment it’s also a lonely place for a Darrelle Revis.  The man who was hands-down the best defensive player in the league last year is not practicing or spending time with his teammates, and it HAS to be a frustrating way to follow up [...]

Ranting about Sports

We all do it. Whether we’re on the phone talking about a trade, having a beer while watching the game with buddies or even muttering to ourselves while watching our team blow a late game lead. We rant about sports. We’re all sure that we know better than the announcers, the coach, the GM and even our star player. I’ve been doing it my whole life.

Why did the QB dump it off to the running back when his star wide receiver was just getting separation? Why would we put our star center with 2 grinding wingers when he clearly needs a winger with a rocket shot from the slot? Why did the manager play a traditional 4-4-2 when our team plays at it’s most creative in a 4-2-3-1?

To be honest, I love being angry at my team’s coach. I love thinking my team needs to sign at least one linebacker in the offseason and I love wondering why we keep signing players that are over the hill.

The greatest thing about sports is that the fans have a way to get involved, long after we’ve realized that we’ll never play the sport ourselves. We get emotionally invested in our teams and we hang off every play.

That’s why I started this blog. It gives me another way to rant and be opinionated. I hope you enjoy it and add a few rants of your own.
