Woo hoo! That's my little Pirate logo all over the place at Kin's Kouch today, as Portland beat his Lowell Lock Monsters.
I kinda like Lowell, though. I have family there (it's my grandmother's hometown), and the head coach was a favorite player of mine back in the day.
(Wow, do I suck at trash talk or what?)
I'm missing hockey. Yeah, it was easy to play the holiday festivities this year, without having to work around games, and I probably watched more football than usual. But what am I going to do in February, watch Nascar?
Victor gave me a Jose Theodore tuque for Christmas, the one he (Theodore, not Victor) wore in that outdoor game last season. It's not that I'm a giant Habs fan, but I've always admired their rich tradition. If you tell me to picture a generic hockey sweater, the bleu, blanc et rouge would surely come to mind. And flipping through the catalog that came with the hat, I found myself thinking "If we don't survive leauge contraction, maybe I'll become a Canadians fan..."
Sigh.
