The Mysteries of A Hockey Player

This pretty much says it all..........

The cockiest, dirtiest, most irresponsible group of athletes in the world.
Will do anything just to be able to tell his teammates a great story in
the dressing room. Live the dream until they are 35 then realize they
never made it.

Ladies love us, guys want to be us, we are the soul of the universe. You
lace up the skates, put on the gloves,
strap on the helmet, and walk on to the ice and nothing else matters. It
doesn't matter that you failed a test, your girl is being a bitch, or that
you got a ticket on the way there... you're world is absolutely perfect
for the next couple hours.

Here's to faceoffs, goals, assists, overtime, living on the road, cold
rinks, early mornings,
breakaways, going top cheese, countless hours of practice, bag skates,
puking, thousands of dollars, dangling
d-men, end to end rushes, big hits, broken twigs, new skates, packing
bombs, dropping the mits, wheelin' broads, coaches, adding the letter "y"
to the end of everyone's last name, the word "fuck", pick up, tape to
tape sauce, let downs, miracles and most of all - the game of Hockey. Why?

Why do we skate back and forth night after night? Skating so hard we throw
up. Skating so hard your heart beat rings in your head, while your lungs
are grasping for air. Late nights, early mornings, Friday nights, Saturday
evenings, broken bones, torn muscles and deep bruises. We skate through it
all. Because we live off our adrenaline, because the game frees your
spirit, because the party in the locker room is second to none,
because you're invincible once you step on the ice, because one shot can
make you smile all night, sniping the twine, backy shelf where momma keeps
the peanut butter, the rattling of the boards, the feel of the puck, and
skates carving into the ice is a rhythm to live by, because its possible
to skate fast enough to leave all your worries behind. Sweat is the
cologne of our accomplishment. Why?

Why would someone push themselves so hard the uneducated pussies always
ask?

HOUSE LEAGUE, A, AA, AAA, JR.A, OHL, US COLLEGE, PRO
It's never been for the fucking the money, it's not for the girls, and
it's not for the fame. 'The Boys' play because we fucking love it ...
If you are a hockey player and you are proud to be one, pass this shit on
with pride mother fucker, and let everyone know the definition of man.


"Why is a puck called a puck?
Because dirty little bastard was taken."
