push back dept: a little less "pride" in the nhl?

I really enjoyed college hockey when I was based in north-west Michigan. The state teams often gave "scholarships" to players from Alaska, Slovenia, Sweden, Finland, and the Russian Federation. All White players! Have you ever tried to stand and skate upright on hockey skates? I'm telling you, it isn't easy! I tried during the winters when I was a kid growing up north of Chicago. Now properly re-designated "Chicongo."

    You'll know hockey has gone queer when the penalties are changed.

    For instance,checking,bumping or pushing an opponent will be eliminated.No physical contact allowed.Fighting would be a felony.

    The new penalties are as follows in a queer nhl.

    Crosschecking--gone--you get two minutes for "crossdressing in bad taste."

    Charging--gone--you get 2 minutes for farting--if extremely noxious--it's a 5 minute major or game misconduct ejection.

    Icing replaced by "enticing"--hitting on/flirting with an opposing player,while on the ice--faceoff taken to opposite end of the rink.

    High sticking--gone--"lipsticking" is in.Two minutes for wearing gaudy lipstick or mascara.



    The gay nhl--it's men's figure skating with an annoying puck thrown in.

    The "pushback" should have come from the fans, not the players. An empty stadium would be the best message, but sports fans seem to be brain-dead zombies who can't imagine life without their favorite entertainment, no matter how degraded it becomes. -RM
