Teams and sports

I am a die hard New Jersey Devils and New York Jets fan. Even though I live in the U.S. I think hockey is the greatest sport ever. Football is a great game too. Golf and baseball are fun to play but boring to watch. There is no greater thrill than going into the Flyer's arena wearing a Devils' Jersey. One of the great things about being a Devils fan is watching Marty Broduer. All time wins list. All time shutout list. Devils Playoff History I finally went to see my first Playoff game in 2006. San Jose Sharks vs the Nashville Predators Game 2. It was a great experience. You hear anouncers talk about the energy in a building but you really have no idea what that means until you are actually there. I just had to go back for another game, so as I watched the Devils complete their sweep of the Rangers I immediatly hopped online and bought the best seat still available for San Jose Sharks vs the Nashville Predators Game 5. During the 2007 offseason I came to the realization that I somehow became a Predators fan. Is it because that before the Devils won their first Stanley Cup that they were rumored to be moving to Nashville. Was it because the Preds picked up quite a few players out of the Devils system? Is it because of all the playoff games I went to? Is it because they are the closest team to where I now reside? It's probably a combination of all of those factors, well anyways, it's official, I'm a proud supporter of the Preds.

    Close but no cigar: One of the biggest stories of this year's Stanley Cup Finals is if Hossa made the right decision to go to the Red Wings to get his name etched on the Stanley Cup. We have to wait until Friday to find out that answer. The question though inspired the Bleacher Report to compile a list of 40 great players who have not had their names engraved on the silver chalice. [via Puck Daddy]

    Tom Sims, skate- and snowboard pioneer, died Sept. 12 of cardiac arrest. He was 61

    I have to admit that even I didn't know how much Sims did for snowboarding. I'm surprised that I'm hearing of this first on Sportsfilter and not from any of my old school skater friends.

    .

    also, it may not seem impressive now, but Jeff Philips was awesome in his day.

    "The At-Home Experience,"

    I love live hockey, especially playoff hockey. Prices are the problem. Five years ago I could have afforded to go to ten regular season games and a couple of playoff games in Nashville but not anymore. Now I just save my money for really good seats to one regular season and one playoff game. I will give Nashville credit though, getting in and out of the city and finding decent parking has never been a problem for me, at least for hockey.

    I have never been to a live NFL game so I have nothing for comparison. I just imagine that huge field and needing binoculars to see all the action. I'm going to a charity auction this Saturday though and I here one of the items for bid is two tickets for Jets @ Titans, so maybe that will change. A coworker has already informed me that traffic is a pain for football games but tipped me off to mall outside of the city where you can park for free and take a bus downtown.

    Fantasy Sports Now on Front Page

    If I'm not logged in (i.e. seeing it from a nonmembers view) there is no link from the front page to the locker room or a search link to categories (confirmed in IE and Firefox). Yes it's still visable if you have a link or know the web address but it's a lot harder to stumble across.

    I'm not saying I'm against it, just saying those are my concerns. I'm all for letting it fly and calling it a trial period.
