And the Season begins

Hockey season that is. I was away on my Honeymoon when the official kick off happened, but seeing as I have not be able to watch my team, the New York Rangers in action yet, tonight it Unofficially, officially kicks off for me. I enjoy the hell out of hockey. I played for 11 years back in NY and seriously am considering trying to get my fat, lazy, out of shape ass out there again. By thats a topic for another day.

Watching hockey in Atlanta is always interesting. We have a lot of new fans here, which is ok with me as anytime the hockey audience grows, I'm on board with it. However, I would be lying if I didn't say it's absolutely hilarious to hear they way some of them talk about hockey. Me and 2 other friends have partial season tickets for the Thrashers and hearing people around us refer to hockey players by their first name; "Go Greg!", or explaining to each other "Icing", or my favorite "Shoot the puck!". Yeah, thanks for that pearl of wisdom Bo...go back to playing your Xbox.. and poorly at that.

Now, if the Rangers can just get their top lines to gel, we might be in for a great season ahead of us. And with no less than 3 attempts to have Comcast hook up the Center Ice package, Ill be able to watch all the games. Now thats "Icing" on the cake.
