who knows. There's a lot of science fiction stories that deal with that kind of plot though.

we all have to be passionate about something... and i choose hockey!
it would be a sad and boring world if no one was passionate about anything!

i can't imagine it being super popular where you're from, being in the south and all.
one of the best players on my team here is from flower mound texas though! his family moved to minnesota when they thought he'd have a good chance at a career in the big show

not a clue. It was a long time ago. I went with my girl scout troop. The stadium had just opened.

not particularly, but not excessively far away either. I know the name because of colorguard.

I don't know how often we competed against them. I don't think they were really in our area, but we'd see them at state championships for sure.

The only hockey game I watched was the Miracle on Ice.
I had to laugh...the announcer said "You know, I'll bet there are people watching who don't know the difference between the red line and the blue line!".

I said (yes, I do talk to the TV).."Well, OK...tell me the difference then!"

The penalties like off-sides and icing have something to do with the lines, right?

Yup. I watched the actual game on TV. Let's see...I'm trying to remember what year that was. Was it either 78 or 80? Seems like I was in my 4 plex apartment at the time...so then it would have been 78 I think.

Nope I just looked it up. It was 1980. It must have been right before I moved into my house.

It was a pretty exciting game all right!

yea off sides has to do with the blue lines and icing has to do with the goal lines, the red ones.

that's so cool! i can't imagine how awesome that must have been, like to see such a huge portion of history.

It's weird, cuz we didn't know it was history at the time, right?
Just that it was a really amazing game.

I'm not even sure why I was watching it. I was at home alone.
As I've said, I knew NOTHING about hockey...but hey...go USA!
