The world is full of crashing bores....
...and I must be one.
I'm going to be titling my posts with Morrissey and Smiths lyrics for a while. This is due to me listening to insane amounts of the Mozzer lately, and also because I simply just love them. There are times in life when the actions you should take might not be clear. You may not know what is right. You may not know where you belong. You may not know what the hell happened to you or why you are where you are. It's times like this that some people turn to friends, family, or religion to help them through. I turn to one of two things. Morrissey or The Karate Kid Trilogy. Right now, it's Morrissey.
I wanted to maybe mention a couple of things. First, look out for the Cubs because I'm seeing signs of life. I'm not even joking about this. I can "feel" a reasonable running starting here.
For those of you that haven't noticed, the Stanley Cup Finals started today. This is like the World Series for Hockey people. Watch a little, it's in hi def. The underdog, over-achieving Edmonton Oilers are going to take down the Carolina Hurricanes. Why? The 'Canes are like the Atlanta Braves, no one shows up to cheer them on until the World Series. They can barely sell out semi-final playoff games. Edmonton is as hockey-crazed a town as you will find. They are Canadian. They are scrappy. They flat out want it more. Throw your dough on the Oilers. They find ways to get it done. They also have more to lose. No one in Carolina cares about hockey.
Keep it real people. I'm boring. I've got nothing else to say. Good night.

As much as I love baseball, seeing a hockey game live is still the apex of professional sport. Problem is, as much as they've tried, it is one sport that doesn't hold up for me on TV, HiDef or not. Also the way that Wirtz family has mucked up the Hawks hasn't exactly helped my appreciation of our hometown team. Call 'em "Unloveable".
