Bring Back the Hockey! PLEASE!

Sure, there are a lot of reasons I miss hockey, but one of the biggest? My Yahoo! NHL News Feed keeps giving me these stupid "Avalanche Moments" -- key moments in recent Colorado Avalanche history. Now I don't harbor the kind of visceral hatred for the Avalanche that my sister -- a devoted Red Wings fan -- keeps in her bowels at all times. But the truth is I don't give two shits about the Avalanche.

And it's not like they're also giving us "Maple Leafs Moments" (my team) or "Blackhawks Moments" (Kevin's team). Nope. Just the Avalanche. I don't care much about the Avalanche when they're playing, so what makes them think I'd care about them now? Claude Lemiuex started a fight two years ago -- big furry deal! Why do I want to relive that?

If there's nothing to report, just admit it, already! Until then, shut up about the Avalanche, before I discover what my sister's hatred is really all about!
