Epic Drop: Top 12 signs that the NHL is not a major league

Tonight's post is, frankly, a test of the Emergency Cheap Canadian Heat system, along with seeing if I can get the hockey fans who read the site (yes, both of you!) to flame me in the comments. I'm not sure that I went far enough, really: most NHL fans will agree with you that Gary Bettman is the hockey equivalent of a 9/11 bomber in terms of helpfulness, and if they aren't wincing at some of these nicknames, they just aren't being honest with themselves. But your mileage may vary, and you might have been worked up into a good mark frothing fury here. In that case, I will take your scorn with my usual Rowdy Roddy grace, and close by saying that you are watching soccer on skates. SOCCER.

I got yer "soccer" right here, you neutered pervert! Imagine Braydon Coburn diving to the ice in pretend "agony" trying for a call, then blithely popping back up and skating hard into the ensuing powerplay - NOT HAPPENING!! Just because Bettman has usurped Selig's most clueless idiot ever to be a commissioner trophy does not mean that if and when ice hockey appears in HD (where you can see the puck clearly, even when shot hard) on a channel that exists in the known TV universe you and so many other smartassed know it all pinheads will choke hard on your ever so smarmy bs! Your very much bigger brother, who still kicks ass playing 2-3 nights a week on the ice at the ripe age of 47.... can't wait to "discuss" this one face to face, l'il bro....
