Happy anniversary Willie O’Ree
Hi.
Remember me? It’s been a while. Apparently it’s been long enough for some of my linkers to un-link me, either thinking I had abandoned this blog or died or maybe because they were tired of looking at that last post of Barney Rubble with the new Sabres logo on his head. I could bore you with tales of work and family, but no one wants to hear it and frankly, I don’t want to tell them. Besides, if you’re a friend on my Facebook account, you know them all already.
Unfortunately, I just haven’t had that much to write about. For the last month or so, the team’s been playing “meh” hockey and is just barely clinging to the 8th potential playoff spot. Hailing from central NJ without the Center Ice package leaves me with limited things to talk about but, hey, they’re playing the Rangers this weekend so I should be able to catch at least ONE game!
But there is one thing to celebrate today: the 50th anniversary of Willie O’Ree breaking the NHL’s color barrier.
