playoff hockey

now the so called 'march madness' just finished, and i will admit that i watched some of it. and it wasnt really that good. but the real sporting event of the year is beginning. actually it really already has begun for some teams. im talking about playoff hockey. the hardest trophy on the planet to win enters its second season in just a few days and the next two months are going to blow anything basketball could offer out of the water. it wont even be close. so for all you people that call yourself sports fans but still like watching basketball, put your seatbelts on and get ready for a real sport, where a little bump or slap on the wrist doesnt get you fouled out, where the last 30 seconds of the game do not take 15 minutes to play out and where guys leave their hearts and souls on the ice in pursuit of the greatest prize in sport.

Oh man. I dont know what to say. I guess I dont have to say much do I. I will say this though, HA! Just thought I'd remind you of the comment you left on this picture Saturday afternoon.(http://www.flickr.com/photos/chelseydroberts/452643277/) I guess we all know the truth of who really sucks now dont we? And its not even because I said so, its because your team proved it. Ha!

basketball is so gay.

missing playoffs is like missing a very important limb, like my arm, or my wang.
it's painful.

lets go Cindy Crosby and the rooks.
