Dear
      Editor,
     
    
   
   
    
     
      Iam
      writing
      in
      response
      to
      the
      ‘‘sports’’
      article
      in
      the
     
     
      Nov.
      14th
      issue.
      Iagree
      100%
      with
      whoever
      wrote
     
     
      this.
      Hockey
      isa
      terrific
      sport.
      I’ve
      played,
      myself
     
     
      competitively
      for
      14
      yrs.
      It’s
      a
      great
      way
      to
      relieve
     
     
      tension.
      Where
      else
      can
      you
      put
      blades
      on
      your
      feet,
     
     
      take
      a
      piece
      of
      lumber,
      and
      go
      and
      beat
      the
      crap
      out
      of
     
     
      each
      other?
      To
      all
      those
      who
      cringe
      and
      think
      ‘‘
      How
     
     
      Barbaric’’
     
    
   
   
    
     
      That’s
      the
      whole
      point,
      to
      go
      wild
      for
      three
      hours
      and
     
     
      then
      go
      home
      to
      your
      hot-tub.
      This
      is
      one
      of
      lives
     
     
      finer
      points.
      But
      hockey
      these
      days
      is
      getting
      to
      be
      a
     
     
      pansy’s
      sport.
      I
      am
      not
      particularly
      a
      Flyers
      fan
      but
     
     
      Dave
      *‘The
      Hammer’’
      Schulty
      is
      still
      my
      all-time
     
     
      favourite
      player.
      I
      recall
      a
      year
      when
      after
      the
      first
     
     
      period
      of
      an
      exhibition
      game,
      the
      Soviet
      team
      took
     
     
      their
      gear
      off,
      got
      cleaned
      up,
      and
      left.
      They
      got
     
     
      thrashed
      so
      bad,
      they
      were
      afraid
      to
      come
      back
      out.
     
    
   
   
    
     
      And
      the
      Canada
      Cup
      this
      year...?
      Canada
      and
      Finland
     
     
      could
      have
      traded
      sweaters
      and
      no-one
      would
      have
     
     
      notices.
      Steve
      Y.
      got
      cut.
      So
      what?
      Mark
      Messier
     
     
      was
      picked.
      Yes,
      and?
      BUT
      WHERE
      IN
      THE
      NAME
     
     
      OF
      CHRIST
      WAS
      WENDEL
      CLARK?
      I
      think
      a
     
     
      little
      heart
      on
      the
      ice
      would
      have
      been
      nice.
      Diggers
     
     
      is
      what
      Canada
      is
      all
      about.
      None
      ofthis
      ont
      ycloap
     
     
      shit.
     
    
   
   
    
     
      P.S.
      Would
      some-body
      please
      put
      Patrick
      Rotton
     
     
      through
      the
      boards.
      At
      least
      hang
      him
      on
      the
      cross-
     
     
      bar.
      Also
      in
      response
      to
      ‘‘Sick
      of
      the
      power-trip’’’s
     
     
      statement
      about
      the
      security,
      I
      think
      ‘‘assholes’’
      is
     
     
      kind
      of
      a
      meaningless
      word.
      I
      think
      Moronic,
      imbe-
     
     
      cilic,
      incompetent,
      ivory-tower-dwelling,
      12
      sandwich
     
     
      eating,
      idiotic
      swine
      is
      a
      little
      more
      appropriate.
