I’m back from what felt like 3 months in Vegas.  Most significant bet I won (if it can be called that) was Louisville over Syracuse (down by 8 at the half and ended up winning by 10 with a 7.5 spread).  Swam with Mel B of Spice Girl fame at the Planet Hollywood pool.  Saw Joseph Gannascoli who played Vito Spatafore on Soprano’s playing blackjack at 4:30 am Saturday night.  Surprisingly the NHL was shown on some of the big TV’s usually reserved for basketball.

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
