There's No Crying in Hockey!

And we sure as hell don't need whining about the fights. I love the fighting, the players love the fighting as do most of the fans, but the debate rages on. As long as they continue to allow the hits and as long as there are pests roaming the ice, there are going to be enforcers to keep the peace and stand up for their teammates, as it should be. Mike and Mike from ESPN agree with me. If you don't like it, watch badminton or table tennis, or those retards that chase a wheel of cheese down a hill every damn year, but leave hockey alone. When a player goes too far, they get fined. The really horrific stuff happens by accident, like the skate that cut Richard Zednik's neck last year. Most of the time the players laugh their way to the penalty box, continuing to hurl insults at their opponenents. We can't do that in our everyday lives and it's a form of release to watch it, even if it is second hand. If you have ever been to a hockey game, you know what I'm talking about. The entire arena errupts, especially if it's Sean Avery getting his ass handed to him. You play hockey, you fight. The End.
