The day I never expected has arrived. The final Running With the Herd Podcast has been recorded. In our final episode ever, JP and I finally have an opportunity to discuss what happened way back on February 5th, talk about what’s next, and close it out with a fun little Rampage History game (which JP…
I have officially reached stage four of the grieving process. Full on depression. I have had 24 hours to process the news that blew up my phone when I wrapped up practice yesterday at about 5:30pm. Direct messages, texts, and Facebook messages filled with apologies, condolences, and curse words…many, many curse words. I knew this…
For professional athletes, the logic behind the number they wear can run a wide spectrum of reasons. It can range from being the year a player is born, to acting as a tribute to a favorite athlete as a youngster, or simply getting that number as a rookie and sticking with it. For yours truly,…
This Friday, the long lost Iguanas and Dragons of San Antonio make their return and JP and I are here to talk about it. We talk about hockey too, but mostly we talk about low dollar, high energy, terrible hockey. We talk about what’s going well for the silver and black, what can be…

It’s our Mid-Summer episode of the Running With the Herd Podcast. On this special edition, JP and I talk Stanley Cup, Free Agency, and discuss recent news and events related to our beloved Rampage. We also bid farewell to a fan favorite and briefly talk about schedules, uniforms, and goalies.
Monday marked the first day of free agency for the 2019 season and the Blues remained quiet with regards to their NHL roster. That doesn’t mean they weren’t busy, however. With several San Antonio players either leaving for Europe, heading into free agency themselves, or being cut loose by the Stanley Cup champions, there was…
The 2018-19 season has officially ended and the Stanley Cup has been awarded. Not sure if you heard, but the parental units up in St. Louis won the cup for the first time in franchise history, which dates all the way back to when the NHL expanded from 6 to 12 teams in 1967. Congrats…
The 2018-19 season wrapped up three weeks ago with another Rampage squad failing to make the playoffs. That doesn’t mean our work at RWtH is done, however.

A late goal by Jordan Nolan and a 38-save performance by Jared Coreau earned the Rampage a stressful win against Ontario Friday night, 4-2. The win improves the Rampage’s record to 25-23-5, and notch a second win on the Rodeo Road Trip to rise to 3-2-3 for the month to keep their heads above water…

On tonight’s edition of the Running With the Herd Podcast, Rampage play-by-play announcer Brian McCormack joined the gang to talk about crossing enemy lines, Whataburger vs. In-N-Out, and the G.O.A.T.

Former Rampage forward, Brian Flynn, has signed with Zug of the NLA, Switzerland’s top professional league.
