Hands down my favorite Sharks fan blog is "Dudes on Hockey," formerly the guys over at Hockey Analysis. Their names are Mike and Doug, and they are truly a great resource for informative analysis on the team. Being extremely knowledgeable about not only the Sharks, but other teams around the league, they use their knowledge to come up with well thought out and interesting topics of discussion.

There have been a couple of times they've been the first to mention a guy to watch (like Ferriero), or suggested a trade that made you go "hmmmm" (most recently involving the Flames), and they do it all with a touch of humor. They also have a podcast that they put together, but I never have had the chance to listen to it.

And one of the best things about them, is they're not afraid to criticize the team and call them out as they see it. I know, it's easy to criticize from behind a computer when you have no accountability to the Organization, but it's always relevant, and not just a rant. It's really a well done blog all around.

My alltime favorite blogspot is "Fear the Fin". I followed Mr. Plank over from "We Bleed Teal". I absolutely love their combination of fact and humour, it's usually an LOL moment for me whenever I read anything any of their bloggers has written, and they all know their team. The humour never overshadows what they are discussing. They call it like they see it, so it's definitely not a homers blog.

I voted.

And looks like Pistol's Tank Talk doesn't exist anymore.

Fear the Fin. As another poster said, the humor in that blog is worth it to me. I was reading the match up of the Sharks v Sens game. The part of Thornton dropping to one knee in the midst of the Marleau riot and proposing to Heatley is by far some of the funniest stuff I've ever read. Between that and "Rob Blake: Will eat a bowl of oatmeal. Suspenders will be worn" I couldn't quit laughing for an hour.

I say FTF, and I'm not biased at all :yes:.

However, there are some great other blogs out there, most of which come from people who comment on FTF. CouchTarts is amazing, so is Fools and Sages, and IFTT is the kind of stream of conciousness nonsense I love.

Great work everyone.

Fear the Fin is my source for Sharks blog talk. Fools and Sages is amusing as well.
