Hi everyone! With all the talk about hockey coming back, there is finally a little enthusiasm in the air. Sure, no one will actually be able to attend any games, but in my opinion, as long as there is some sort of competitive current-day sports for us to watch on TV, I’m happy. Not sure if the excitement is similar to the excitement that Seals fans felt after their team won their opening game of 1973-74, but I needed some sort of introduction to this article I wanted to post, so voilà! As an added bonus, there is also a nice Lee Susman cartoon from the previous day’s Oakland Tribune.
And for those of you who are wrestling with the notion of retiring, but are not sure if you still want to go to the office every day even though your boss has told you don’t work there anymore because you were replaced with someone else, well have I got an Overexposed card for ya! It features little-known, but rather underrated defenseman Tom Edur in an underrated O-Pee-Chee blunderfest from 1978-79.
As always, a friendly reminder to vote for the people you believe should be inducted into the Seals Hall of Fame. While the hockey world is completely shut down right now, we keep chugging along and taking your votes, so start clickin’ if you haven’t done so already.
Until next time, stay gold!
