• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

To be fair, I’m a Detroit fan first and foremost. However, after living in Tampa for the last 6 years, I’ve got to admit I’ve completely gone full homer for all things Tampa. The GOAT going to the Bucs and the Lightning about to go back to back along with a good Rays team that just missed last year. There isn’t a better pro sports city in the country right now. Prove me wrong.

Hey bud! Coming to Tampa in February for a reunion. Know any good places to hit up?!
 
Blake’s diving on the ice goal was insane last night. I was making a beverage, turned around and went “did that really just fucking happen?”
 
Agreed, but this series is over. If you win a game like that in the SCF when being completely outplayed, it’s over. Habs will be lucky fo get 1.

Hopefully. I keep hearing the comparisons to Vegas, but really the entire western conference seems down this year. I wish the Avs got in, or Vegas, over Montreal.

I'd pull for all Detroit sports before that shit town with no beach. Fairweatherhonkeyasshole.

However the University of Tampa probably is a better choice over the Blue Boys. I'll give you that one.
