Know someone with ties to hockey deserving a place in the RI Hockey Hall of Fame? The window for public nominations for the Class of '27 is now open thru Nov. 30. All nominations MUST be submitted using the official form available on our website - RIHHOF.com.
I hear from quite a few people how legalized sports betting has altered their feelings for sports. Young & old tell me the in-your-face marketing and player scandals are tainting the experience.
Not much I can do about it, so I wrote the lyrics of a song and had AI do the rest.

News: MLB sent a 34-page memo to owners and high-ranking officials across the league detailing what to expect — and how to act — during the lockout.

Hard to believe tomorrow is 40th ann. of day I was called into Bill Torrey's office and, at 26, appointed publicity director of @NYIslanders.
I had an offer to return to @NHL, where I interned, but Bill did not give NHL VP Steve Ryan permission to speak with me...then this!

Thanks for shining a light on the #RIHHOF @NHLWraparound!
We're extremely proud of @mnwild coach John Hynes, and all our inductees who have had a major impact on the sport at the highest levels.
Smallest state! One giant footprint on the game! 💯
RI = #CradleOfUSHockey 🏒🔥🏒
Reflecting on a special induction into the Rhode Island Hockey Hall of Fame. It was an honor to be recognized in my home state among so many legends, surrounded by family and the incredible hockey community. #RhodeIslandHockey #HallOfFame #HockeyCommunity #SportsRecognition #Family

Rhode Island hockey fans can now display their passion wherever they go, with a new RI Hockey Hall of Fame license plate. The RI DMV approved our request for a branded plate as part of the Charity License Plate program.
Pre-ordering has begun:

When a picture is worth a thousand words!
It's truly sad to watch the sport industry DEVOLVE in real time.
After spending 100+ years warning of the harm legalized sports gambling will have on pro sports, the leagues have been taken hostage by it.
Oh well, meet the new era...
Congrats, @HowieRose! 🍾🥂⚾️🏒

Congratulations, @MarkDivver!
Well-deserved honor!
As an aside, James Ellery's wife, Estelle, was the first person Bill Torrey hired with the @NYIslanders in 1972. Estelle was a rock of an administrator!

As the Blue Jays consider what to do at the trade deadline, Rogers released Q2 financial results today: Organic sports and media revenue is up 13% (irrespective of consolidation and control of MLSE).
CFO Glenn Brandt: "The 13% standalone organic growth, roughly $100 million, was largely driven by higher Blue Jays-related revenue, with over 95% near sellout attendance for our home games at Rogers Centre."
