Lord Stanley and His Royal Cup

[Show-Me Hog]

Go Vegas....hockey should not be played in Florida.

[Thin Red Swine]

Now wait just a damn minute. There are a few true hockey fans down here and it's growing as a youth sport. 

It's just mostly fair weather fans.

Well honestly 110 degrees in the desert ain't exactly Calgary either.

I take it you've never been here.  It's rarely above 90 and lush.

I was referring to Vegas.

Well that was a confusing change of direction, considering your original rationale.

All I was saying was that if Florida isn't a hockey hotbed, Vegas sure ain't either.

Should have been big clues.

You led with Go Vegas. You didn't say hockey shouldn't be played in Nevada.

It's a bizarre criteria to choose a team to be for, but if that's it, you picked the team/state that is far newer to the sport.

They have the same colors and mascot as Central Florida. It's all very confusing. Maybe I should switch.

Nope. Goal. I'm sticking.

Man you're prickly tonight.

You're right. I was. I thought that in my head but didn't think I actually posted it. I blame the heavy bronchitis medication I've been on. And last night I mixed it with a glass of wine with dinner.

Oddly enough, I've never really defended Florida for much of anything but for whatever reason that struck a nerve.

[Thin Red Swine]

But it's a dry heat....

[Show-Me Hog]

Vegas kicking ass and taking names. This one is over tonight.

[Thin Red Swine]

Desert hockey for the win. Team of destiny.

[DrMongoose]
