#11

One time I went to a fight and a hockey game broke out.

Internet, I did nothing yesterday but watch the USA vs. Canada hockey game turned out to be great. Friggin' 3rd period was crazy then the OT. Nuts! I couldn't really care about the other "sports" in the winter Olympics because I view them the same as I do swimming where it's more a way to keep yourself alive and less a sport. Like you stop swimming and you drown, end of story, but if you're playing football and you stop running it may not cause your imminent demise. I hate shit like the luge and skeleton- you're just asking for something bad to happen. Most winter sports are just someone putting them self in a life threatening situation and then we watch them get out of what can be their death... on worldwide television. When I want to see that I just watch Man Vs. Wild, then at least I'm learning something god forbid I find myself in nature someday I have to survive.
While watching the game I also realized that I do not know the rules of hockey...at all. Probably cause I wasn't raised on it. I understand the basic concept (some OT rules, some penalties etc.) and what certain terms are but I do not know shit about any calls of the game. I just like when they get into each others defensive zones and it turns into a damn free for all. It's exciting as all hell, the speed picks up and it's this frantic rush for the puck. Like it's moderately civil until you're near the goal and then it's like cavemen with knives on their feet and sticks in their hands whailing on each other. I love it- more violence please. I still get worked up when I watch the 1980 Olympic hockey game versus Russia cause I totally know what's going to happen but it's so awesome. Yes, I love sports underdog stories. Football, baseball, hockey, basketball (well maybe not basketball as much) all very exciting.
I've been noticing a shit-ton of Curves advertisements online lately which is good cause I like to know my money is going into ads somewhere. You'll probably notice more of them now that I've said it but failblog, dictionary.com, all over. That's the hustle I like to see.

Today marks the 1 year anniversary of my owning Curves. Wahoo. I'll have a slice of pie later.
