Afternoon Delight: Building a Better Pirate Ship

  • Please enjoy this excerpt from Bruce Boudreau’s upcoming biography,  by way of Japer’s Rink. Should be loads of interesting stories in this one, as Boudreau spent a lot of time in the minors.
  • This week’s Hot List takes a look at Jeremy Morin, formerly of the USNTDP and moving on to the Kitchener Rangers. He has a load of offensive talent.
  • Mick Kern, writing on his XM Home Ice blog, argues that ice hockey belongs at the Winter Olympics, and any talk of moving it to the summer is nonsense. (H/T to Kukla) Well argued.
  • Goon’s World has an update on the Sioux nickname controversy. Seems like bad news for those wanting to keep the nickname.
  • I was checking out the Mother Pucker blog today, and they had a link to the Jersey Database. I though that IC reader’s might want to take a look. Tons of info there, and Mother Pucker is pretty good too.
  • I came across this blog today. Check out Makeiteighteh. Can’t have too many Jets-inspired blogs.
