DENVER — Now that's how to break in a new stadium.

The University of Denver men's soccer team sent an overflow crowd home happy as Alex Tarnoczi scored 3 minutes, 4 seconds into overtime in a 2-1 victory over Dayton on Saturday.

So, as a native of the Philadelphia area here in the US I'm confronted with something of a dilemma. Growing up in Philadelphia you are generally brought up with a healthy (and some would say unhealthy) bit of mania for the local professional sports teams across all major American sports.

I like this. It's kind of in the same vein as the scarfing in Seattle but geared more toward the "discovery" phase of the team as opposed to the "investment" phase. Even if people don't know what they mean, they know what cards are; definitely a good way to stand out from the other yahoos out there flinging flyers. Click to continue reading...

Congratulations to the Twin Valley Flyers Peewee Hockey Team on winning the NH State Championship yesterday afternoon, defeating Back Bay in OT to take the trophy.  (And it was our own Mo, of March Madness fame, who tipped in the winning goal!)  Well done, Flyers - and thanks for an exciting weekend of great hockey [.

So said Sabres coach Lindy Ruff tonight at HSBC Arena, as the Philadelphia Flyers came to town. The hype meter was off the wall, as former Sabres Martin Biron and Daniel Briere were making their first return to Buffalo since their departures last season. Both received warm applause during the warmups and intros, but the adulation [. Click to continue reading...
