Infamousbacardi, Nice long winded ramble cheese head, not really warranting a response, because most of is is fuk'in "duh" speak anyway. Yes, colder climates generally do like hockey, duh! Plenty of hockey fans in Florida too. Don't know if you've been to any recent hockey games lately, but they are played indoors now at an ice rink that could be anywhere, no just the far north, Duh! Even the Jamaicans fielded a bob sled team at the Olympics, don't remember much snow and ice when I was in the land of Bob Marley.
"Americans got lucky in 1980"? Just how much fuk'in rum do you drink? That's about the most stupid fuk'in statement ever made, we kicked the Russians' ass that year, no luck to it at all, it's called heart and the willingness to refuse to lose! Of course you wouldn't know much about that, with Green Bay getting their asses handed to them this past weekend!
Look man I know you're upset, but don't take it out on hockey, go find a nice cheddar, maybe a decent wine and make a wish for 5'2" Arron Rogers to grow up to be a man next year!
