Gender adventuress, hockey fan, aide-de-camp. Two-time winner of the Miss DomCon Pageant.
The promos produced by university communications units for sports broadcasts are sometimes perplexing to me. The U of Oregon has apparently adopted this slogan:

We Make
You Go

Which has many possible interpretations, but my first association harkens back to the declining days of communism

You’re not gonna believe this!

SHARKS WIN!

Kurashev’s second of the game sends everyone home with the win - and free tacos! Sharks 3 Avalanche 2

It’s the Native American Heritage Celebration today and the Chukchansi Powwow Princess is supervising the drum circle at the north entrance

I think this is the earliest I’ve ever been in SAP Center for hockey. 1:00 start for the Sharks and the Avalanche. Can these Sharks possibly win two games in a row? We’ll see!

When the NCAA’s Ticketmaster ticketing platform says don’t do something, my inclination is to follow directions. This has been spinning like this for nearly an hour. When do I go rogue?

This was the first game I can remember being at where the Sharks’ food promotions both paid off. While I wasn’t hungry for pizza at 10 AM this morning when I was in San Jose (and Bibo’s isn’t open then anyway) there are many Taco Bells in the East Bay open at noon and the tacos were delicious

The aforementioned Dominique Petrie gets an intermission interview on the big video board with Sharks arena host Emily Harlan

With the rest of the sports world occupied elsewhere, we’re in the Shark Tank to see San Jose take on Dieter Ruhle’s other team. Traffic cooperated so we got here in time for warm-ups!

Online registration is easy to do from the comfort of your home, but today is the last day to do that. You can also register in person and vote on Election Day at a polling place/vote center

My in-person Sharks 25-26 experience starts tonight, as we’re in the Tank for Los Tiburones Night, vs. Los Pingüinos. No score after one period. Excellent intermission entertainment!

On editing: two people covering the Sharks regularly, posting about the same media availability. Maybe it’s just me, but I feel like the two posts communicate what happened very differently, in the sense of the interview subject’s attitude

Yeah, somebody’s gonna have their undies in a bunch

If you’re within 100 miles or so of that city, get yourself to Shakespeare Santa Cruz for their production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream – one of the best I’ve ever seen

Once I found out the brilliant B. Modern was doing a mid-20th-century costume design, I knew what to wear and it went over well

While making lunch today I opened a can of tuna whose lid was stamped “Mermaid Approved”

Which caused me to ponder, if this wasn’t just marketing hype, what the approval process might look like

I imagine the tuna were not consulted

Waiting for this to be the next justification for repression of a disfavored group by the federal government

(I did watch this movie, Delinquent Daughters, on TCM the other night. It was, I have to say, not great)

Chortling. Can I chortle in solidarity?

Valkyries lose another nail-biter (I just did not see how you call that foul on the missed shot with 1.0 seconds left) but the fans at Chase Center are undefeated

The Giants’ Lou Seal was elevated to the Mascot Hall of Fame last year and there’s a Funko Pop giveaway coming up to celebrate

SJ Sharkie made the hall this year and Team Teal damn well better meet the moment!

Team Teal hoists the Marchment Cup!

It’s time for hockey in July! The Sharks Prospect Scrimmage is today at Tech CU Arena and here’s Mascot Hall of Famer SJ Sharkie hanging off the back of the Zamboni before we get going
