People have the right to have stupid ideas, & I have the right to criticize their ideas as being stupid without the threat of violence. #GFY

With the Kings in Boston tonight, here's something: Just before taking the Bruins job, Marco Sturm gave his last interview in LA -- where he talked about prospects on the Reign and what an NHL head coaching job would mean to him. KOTP - summer 2025 👇 mayorsmanor.com/2025/05/kings-…

Social media is fucking stupid.

What I've been up to... Hybrid Icing - launched (episode 2 coming soon) Royal Half Radio Postgame Show - launched Royal Half Radio Regular Show - coming soon Untitled LA Kings Prospect Project - coming soon It's all starting to come together.

Hi!!! Here's my Ontario Reign debut!!!! Over the moon with how this story turned out!! Thanks to everyone for being so wonderful to talk to! I hope you all enjoy it!

@emptyrink Congrats! I’ve been looking forward to seeing your debut. I believe I had the pleasure of meeting you when Jesse introduced us at the Empire classic? I was in the wheelchair. If so, perhaps you’d consider following back? 🙂

Six freaking years! I had the dream of writing about the Reign for six years and I can't believe it happened!!!!

@KingsMenPodcast Noted

The conversion rate whenever you hear the phrase “quick funny story” is insanely low. Made only worse with the modifier “you’re gonna love this”. I assure you…. I will not.

Shaf is on site on Vegas and will have all the coverage from the Kings / Golden Knights tilt this evening!

I mentioned the Kelowna Thistles on the podcast this week and a dusty echo of a memory bubbled up and said they won the Cup in 1908. I looked it up... it was January of 1907. Just so you know...

BOLD PREDICTION I think the Kings will skate 11F 6D and all 3 goalies and I think one specific forward will specifically benefit from the extra spot. If I’m correct you’ll never hear the end of it if I’m wrong I’ll probably delete this tweet.

3 QUESTIONS FOR THE EMPIRE CLASSIC The Preseason is underway and so is my speculation. Also I’m bungling the job of running a website. Thanks for your patience. #GoKingsgo theroyalhalf.com/2025/09/3-ques…

TOP 10 QUESTIONS: TRAINING CAMP (UPDATE) Time for me to try my hand at writing again. Here’s an article about training camp after three days. theroyalhalf.com/2025/09/top-10…

@jordyfox @TheFourthPeriod Ha ha damn, Jordy. 😅

How to make a generic rumor sound like inside information without any inside information. Step 1 - team and player continue talks. Step 2 - long-term deal is the goal. Step 3 - get it done by the season. (Lets wait until he is a UFA) Step 4 - work needs to be done(that is how a negotiation works)

The Kings continued contract negotiations extension talks with Adrian Kempe’s camp today. Goal remains long-term, and to get something finalized by the season, but still work to be done.

BORN: May 18. 1960, Coniston, Ontario, Canada 1980 NHL DRAFT: Selected 10th overall (LA Kings) POSITION: Right Wing 9th All-Time in Goals Scored by a King (186) 9th All-Time in Assists by a King (293) 9th All-Time in Points by a King (479) Scored 30 goals in a season, three times

@JimFox19 Greetings, Jim. Was thrilled upon hearing you’re returning to the booth! On the eve of another training camp, I thought I’d drop this handsome devil right here. 😈

“Ignorant people think jiu jitsu only happens on the ground. They are wrong. The truth is, with proper training, it is the grappler who will most often choose if, how, and when a fight goes to the ground. And once there, things only get easier.” — SBG coach, John Frankl

If you scroll my Tweets back to 2015, you’ll discover that you’ve managed to avoid reality for another 15 minutes.

I think a lot of us have a much better idea of exactly why far-left advocates and Islamic terrorists get along so well.
