This is true. Kids over there know what to do with a football. Kids over here know what to do with a puck. Right now, as we speak, Canada's juniors are leading Slovakia 7-1. These kids are just so talented. Within the next couple of years they will all be millionaires playing in the NHL. I still love watching football, but hockey is ... hockey is Canada.
Right now (9:50 pm) millions of Canadians are watching our juniors beat the ever living crap out of a Slovakian team which is not all that bad; they just can't handle the talent the Canucks have. So far inthe tournament, Canada has outscored the opposition 29-1. And the only reason the Slovaks got a goal was that Canada was two men short on penalties. Those European refs don't understand the finer points of physical hockey.
Anyway, hon, I gotta get back to the game. And I really didn't intend to rattle your cage
