Hockey

Hockey, what to talk about? Well, if your Professor Windsor, you see this as me trying to get on Bridget's good side. In all honestly, it doesn't matter, I have a girlfriend, so what would happen if Bridget got on my bad side? Nothing, because I really don't care what she thinks. This is more to prove a point that I can talk about almost any sport with some sort of knowledge about it. Sure the hockey season just got under way and I just breezed through the hockey page put on by ESPN. I did take some time to read an article about football and things like that.(http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2241116)

Hockey, hockey, hockey, hockey, hockey, hockey....something is going to hit me here soon. Alright enough joking around lets get serious. Hockey, it is like basketball on ice with an added man to defend the basket. In all reality, the reason I don't talk about it is because I am from New Mexico, it is a freakin desert there so what and why would we have anything to do with hockey. But back to the analogy I started.

Imagine, Emeka Okafor or Shaq, even better Kevin Garnett sitting in front of the basket the entire game. When anyone shot the ball swat, get out of this house. Throw a little checking, or arm tackling, and ice and you got yourself some hockey. I give props to hockey players just because of their ability to skate in both directions, stop on a dime, and do it with a stick in their hand. Then some guy checking you or hitting with his stick and you have a violent sport.

When it comes to hockey teams, I must pick the Colorado Avalanche. They are a fairly good team, they had Patrick Roy, still have Joe Sakic, and I think Peter Foresberg. They are some players come in and out that were really good.

A sport that I must give some credit to is lacrosse, but that is another blog, on another day.
