I don't follow the Thrashers or hockey any longer, but what is up with naming a hockey team the "Leafs"? Who the hell was on that committee? I understand it is Canada, but don't you get signs from the opposing teams like "Rake the Leafs"...whatevergirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17645824780807393590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1419556613774990234.post-44221649672874004302007-11-08T07:37:00.000-05:002007-11-08T07:37:00.000-05:00We go see the Atlanta Thrashers about once a seaso...We go see the Atlanta Thrashers about once a season.

Just the locals playing, and the seats were too cold, too rickety, and the only thing that I could ever afford was a bag of pocorn for 50 cents. I am not a hockey fan, but since my brothers played for the local team and I have two relatives that were in the NHL, I sort of had to suffer through it. <BR/> Funny thing is, I kind of miss it. <BR/> I'm glad that you had fun. For me, being out with Hubby, no matter where, makes my night.Biddiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07745873261311850810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1419556613774990234.post-84683843421205089662007-11-07T19:22:00.000-05:002007-11-07T19:22:00.000-05:00I'm not a hockey fan, well, not an NHL hockey fan,...I'm not a hockey fan, well, not an NHL hockey fan, at all, but I do enjoy the spirit of being at a game once in a while. I usually will go to one or two OHL games a season here in Guelph and try to cheer on the Storm, but they usually disappoint too! LOL! I'm glad you had a good time, and had a decent neighbour at the game! Great pictures, by the way!<BR/><BR/>Isn't experiencing the "new" Canadian patriotism a huge thrill now? I remember when nobody sang the national anthem or waved flags at games. I get goosebumps, even at Guelph's tiny arena when I hear 4,000+ fans belting out "Oh Canada!" Very cool!<BR/><BR/>One last question... didn't the Sens play at the Corel Centre? Or did that change ownership recently?Phoenix5https://www.blogger.com/profile/06717890637366842487noreply@blogger.com
