Tennessee "Pride"

Posted July 19, 2007
Go Preds, Go! The ticket drive is on! Having lived in Tennessee for 10 years, I feel like I can say this: Tennesseans have a nasty habit of "supporting" things without actually supporting them with their pocketbooks. I saw the same thing happen in Knoxville with both it's minor league baseball team and its hockey team (3 incarnations in my 10 years there). It usually takes some shocking cir... Read More »

That said, it wouldn't make much sense for a playoff-level club to... Read More »

An Unlikely Fan is Born

Posted May 2, 2007
I grew up in Mississippi in the days before minor league seeped into our southern borders. Hockey was not a sport that got much talk in my household. My childhood was surrounded by football and baseball. I don't even remember the 1980 Miracle on Ice (I would have been nearly 7 at the time). The only exposure to hockey that I got was the occasional game that may have slipped in while my dad was... Read More »
