here’s weird thought for All Star week

Here’s a really weird, radical thought for All Star Week.

Just sit down and watch the All Star game and enjoy it for what it is.

You aren’t going to see penalites. Or hitting. or checking. or forechecking, backchecking or any other word that contains the word “check”.

So? What you’re going to see is an exceptionally talented group of offensive players playing offense.

Instead of worrying about what it isn’t — enjoy what it is. Just sit down, pop open something cool and refreshing, and watch the fun.

We can all go back to whining and kvetching next week.

    Can I pour something instead of popping open a can? Nothing like watching the All Star Game with a glass of good Cabernet!

    Agree, and I plan to do just that. I have always considered the All-star game to be for the fans. A mid season celebration where the national audience can see players that rarely visit the arenas of the opposite conference. This year I am looking forward to the “all-sharks line” and Ducks coach Carlyle has all but said he will try JT/PM/JC at some point. Could make for some fun!
