Hockey, A Real Man's Sport

As you can see, I changed the name of my blog to reflect the one other thing in the world I love to watch. That's Hockey. Now to some of my fellow native Texans, hockey seems a little confusing, too fast, and low scoring, but it's action like this that keeps me watching.



What's really cool is that Milan Lucic of the Boston Bruins, who made this hit, comes back in his next game two days later, and scored his first hat trick, that's scoring three goals in a single game. These guys are incredible athletes. They play a game schedule as rigorous as baseball, but harder hitting than football. Also, you don't hear about the players are involved in illegal extra curricular activities. They are players of a sport that can really be admired on and off the ice. As the 2008-2009 seasons moves along I'll be sharing more about the players I like and the team I'll be rooting for as we get closer to the Stanley Cup.

As for the Fans, I think this says it all.
