Vegas Golden Knights 2020-2021 playoff prediction
After yet another very successful season, The Vegas Golden Knights finished with a record of 40-14-2, earning them second in the west this season. It should have been first, instead of Colorado. We were the only team to get 40 wins this season, I wanted that division banner and the President's trophy. But I digress, it is what it is. The Golden Knights still finished with the highest goal differential of 67, 191 GF and 124 GA. Marc Andre Fleury and Robin Lehner won the William J Jennings trophy.

Professional Boxers with Surprising Second Careers
Mike Tyson is considered one of the greatest boxers ever to step into the ring. Out of his 50 wins, 44 were by KO, he had amazing punching power, and when in the ring, he seemed unstoppable. His years in the spotlight weren’t very easy on him, it seems - in a 2005 interview, he revealed that he was never happy. “My whole life has been a waste - I've been a failure,” he said at the time. He retired from competitive boxing and tried pretty much everything from a Broadway one-man show with Spike Lee to writing, singing, and even a brief stint in professional wrestling. He couldn’t stay away from the ring, though. Mike Tyson’s return to the ring was announced this May - he’ll reportedly face Shannon “The Cannon” Briggs on October 3 this year.

A Walk Over To The Ice Rink
I can recall the sound of the snow crunching under my boots as I walked for twenty minutes in the frigid cold. I was on the way to the community ice rink, and it was many years ago. Bundling up and making the trek over to the rink wasn't particularly exciting, it's hardly a story to tell. But, I knew that once I was on the ice, I’d be warm — and then extra layers of clothes would come off, and I'd be having fun. So the effort, from the onset, rarely did stop me from making my way out the door.

An Open Letter to the Fencing Club Poor Sport. Top Story - May 2021.
Dear Sir, Allow me to make my role clear to you, sir. I am your opponent. That means – I oppose you. It is not my job to stand there like a crash test dummy and uncomplainingly absorb all your too-hard whip attacks. If I know that you like to use too-hard whip attacks, the evidence of which I am now wearing on my arm and back in the form of long purple bruises, I am going to keep using point in line to keep you at a distance with the point of my sabre, because I don’t like absorbing too-hard whip attacks. Please know that your heavy-handed, flailing-n00b’s style has all the finesse of a compound fracture, and seeing as how I don’t like pain, I will go to extensive lengths to avoid it. Please also be aware that fencing is a sport, not an excuse for you to beat the snot out of people with a three-foot metal whip, and that anger management counseling resources are available for people like you.

At the end of the summer market, and a few days before the transfer was completed, overwhelmed the player's entourage by declaring He is not a minimum wage or an unemployed person, he must respect his employer. His entourage does not adopt the right behaviour. I don't know what problem is, the one he calls and I don't know if it's about money or ego. "
