Random thoughts on the sporting world...along with poker updates, and anything else that needs to be said. Go Flames, Brewers and Broncos!!!

@Tawdge Yeah, I don't dispute that. I just wonder if they need to start looking at areas where they're more deficient.

[Jeff Reich @BrewFlame]

A little surprised the Flames went with a D-man again at #6 in the draft...I think they're already deep enough at that position with prospects/youth.

I don't pretend to know prospects, but I woulda gone with a center...I think most were thinking Bjorck.

Mike Babcock.

There's something so right about one of sports' most unlikeable, uncheerable teams hiring one of the most unlikeable people in hockey as their coach.

Such a perfect fit...falls perfectly in line with how they operate. I love it!!

[Jeff Reich @BrewFlame]

Baseball is so weird...one of the worst hitters in baseball just went deep against one of the best pitchers in baseball, and is now 5/6 in his career against him.
Some guys just see or read certain guys so well, regardless of ability. #brewers

I didn't see the game, but I'm FAR less surprisrised at Misiorowski's dominant performance than I am by the fact that he was allowed to go 9 innings. I honestly did not think there was a chance a Brewer starter would be allowed to do that this year. #brewers

I paid 156.9 for gas this morning, and it felt like a steal.

It's kind of sad when 156.9 feels like a steal.

There are literally ZERO situations where Blake Perkins should be used as a pinch-hitter. ZERO. #brewers

[Jeff Reich @BrewFlame]

This Montreal-Carolina overtime is a most perfect example of why hockey is easily the single worst officiated sport in the world.

There is literally no reason for the referees to even be there at this point.

@VinnysCorner1 Julius Thomas...Broncos.

The NL Central standings as of the start of May 17. Every team is over .500.

The entire American League has exactly 3 out of 15 teams that would not be dead last in the NL Cental.

[Jeff Reich @BrewFlame]

Well, that was certainly a more enjoyable series than last year's series vs the Yankees. #brewers

[Jeff Reich @BrewFlame]

Shocking...worst possible scenario. #nhldraft #flames

[Jeff Reich @BrewFlame]

Oh boy...this is gonna make lots of people thrilled. #nhldraft #sarcasm

[Jeff Reich @BrewFlame]

It's really quite sad, when the next 1/2 hour is the most excitement of my playoffs...and season, really. #flames

The Edmonton Oilers have been eliminated.

Year 11 of this generation’s best player on our biggest rival and Zero Stanley Cups 0️⃣

Tonight is a great night.

Bye bye Edmonton.

[Jeff Reich @BrewFlame]

As a Flames fan, I never thought I'd say these words, but...Thank You Anaheim Ducks!!!

[Jeff Reich @BrewFlame]

Oilers Central....sorry, I mean the Sportsnet Panel is just in mourning during the intermission.

I don't hate it.

@nut_history I also noticed the note has the old "M" with barley logo on it, which is no longer used.
