[Vision2020] Hockey almost over......YIPEEE!!!

[deaconjames at verizon.net]

Oh man, that's nothing. I wish I could hear more about the NFL DRAFT. I mean we only got like six months of coverage of the NFL DRAFT. And every so often you still hear little stories here and there about the NFL DRAFT. But I mean I need NFL DRAFT coverage like every waking minute. I want to hear about the NFL DRAFT as soon as I get up in the morning. The thing I want to hear about right before I close my eyes is the NFL DRAFT. I can't get enough of NFL DRAFT coverage. I wish they'd make an ESPN3 to shuffle all the baseball stuff over to so that I can get year-round uninterrupted NFL DRAFT news on ESPN. But I especially want it in the Spring. When there are no football games. When baseball is just getting good and cranked up. When the sports commentators aren't even talking about actual games being played, just a list of teams picking players who may or may not end up playing in actual games later that year.

Take care,

D

Well Sports Fans,

It's that time of year again. Maybe the best time of the year. I'm not talking about Summer, no I'm not talking about Christmas either. I'm talking about the close of another time-draining, sports-center-wasting hockey season. For the next week and a half we shall have no talk of Jagrs and Messiers, Roys and Hjkhuhkunp;ekus (i think he plays for the canes or flames or cranes or something like that). But our brief momentary bliss will soon be broken by the starting of their next 50 week season. Only a week for our twenty-consanant-named heroes to have their dental implants and mullets polished up for another frantically, frustrating episode of "watch the big guys with sticks try and keep their balance, then give up and start droppin' bombs". Seriously though, can you think of a more frustrating combination. You take a bunch of guys who are already ticked, cuz they live in the perpetual cold, arm them with sticks and an odd shaped puck, and tell them to get that  thing into a net half the size of the goalie in front of it. Oh yeah, and do all of this while trying to keep your balance on the ice! I think I'd start swingin' too. Well, anyway, it's almost over. And in the short break between this season and the next we can enjoy some world cup soccer, international rugby, and tennis grand slams. Sounds pretty good to me. Enjoy.

Drizzle
