Hi everyone! Yes, this week we are channelling our inner Rodney Dangerfields and heading back to November 1973. In this week’s article, the Seals’ Bob Stewart is a tad upset that his team kept getting dumped on every time they miraculously came away with a win. Every time the Seals won, it was a fluke, or the other team was having an off night, and on and on. Of course, everyone’s hatred of Charlie Finley may have played a role in the Seals’ lack of respect, but I’ll let you debate that. Either way, Stewart had a front row seat for all of the the Seals’ troubles, but even he had no idea how bad things would get by the end of the season. You can read all of Stewart’s thoughts on the media’s bias (Geez, I’m starting to sound like one of those conspiracy theorist nut bags… God help me!) right here.

In closing this week, if you have picked up or read a copy of my new book, When the NHL Invaded Japan, I ask that you take a couple of minutes to review or rate the book on one of your favourite websites, whether it be Amazon, Goodreads, or somewhere else that carries or promotes books. Every positive review helps and gets others reading. You can also pass along a link to this website, more specifically this page which describes the book in greater detail, and contains a nice poster and bookmark which you are free to download and distribute. Thanks in advance for your efforts in helping promote the book. It might even help get a few more people to contribute to this here site!

Until next time, stay gold!
