Know Rivalry is a research project from an American university where you can enter your thoughts and impressions about whoever you feel your favourite sports team(s) greatest rivals are then see results from other fans of the same team *and* your rivals’ team to see if they feel the same way about your team.
I’m getting more and more interested in smart devices with my most recent purchase being three smart floodlights which I installed in my garage so that the neighbours can enjoy my obsession too! Easter… Calgary Flames Game Night… Anniversary of Humboldt Broncos Tragedy…
Sharing my insight about the Flames’ season with the good folks at CalgaryPuck (of note, there are only a handful of sites that both still exist and also pre-date when I began using the “Headtale” alias for every site I joined.

This was followed by an airing of the latest Don Cherry “Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em” VHS tape that one of their two boys got from Christmas, finger foods, basement beers and […]
