Great idea, but I say the teams should dress up as whatever their name is. So, like when New England plays Washington, we can have a bunch of old-timey soldiers on one side and on the other side we can have ........... oh god.

ALWAYS WEAR YOUR CUP.

There is like one square km of Quebec City that’s nice. And it isn’t Sainte-Foy.

So the Portuguese word for gasoline is “gasolina” and the word for diesel is “gasóleo”. Every time I fuelled up the rental I had to triple check to make sure.

If you think only white people like/play hockey (on a post about Georges Laraque!), I can confirm based on my rec league team and the kids team that I coach that you are hanging around the wrong ice rinks. And what are the demographics of figure skating like?

I don’t know if you have been reading deadspin dot com lately, but there isn’t much room for nuance on the left, either.

1. The players have a right to protest. It’s good that they are exercising that right. I agree that racism is a serious problem in America, and that deserves to be protested.
