Hockeytown

Hello!

Hope you're having a great day!

So this morning I was seeing the news and one of the headlines, believe it or not, was the Toronto Maple Leafs had finally won in hockey. I laughed my head off, so much pain and suffering around the world and this is a headline?!! Then I started thinking, I shouldn't laugh at this since in Montréal and in any other Canadian city the situation would be the same, Canadians love their hockey and it's as sacred as baseball for Americans. Apparently it had gotten so bad that there were all sorts of videos popping up, I got to see one and it was hilarious. The music of Eminem and Rhiana, "Love the way you cry", with spoof up lyrics, it was worth me searching for it. Yeah hockey is pretty big here, I mean we really get depressed when another country beats us at our national sport. Not so long ago we lost the Junior championship to the Russians and God Almighty people were depressed, I'm pretty sure that some of us must have cried. I think there was even talk of a Royal commission to find out what happened, we love doing commissions around here, we can get enough of them, plus we have so much money to spend that we would be surprised if taxpayers didn't pay for it.

But you know I'm gonna let the video do justice to our sport.

Happy trails! Go Habs go!
