"Hockey Moms"

So I keep hearing the term hockey mom during the election. Although I am fired up to hear the word hockey being said in so many important politic talks. I don't undersand what the heck even makes you a hockey mom.

First off as a soccer mom I guess you have to be an old enough that you are zipping your kid to sports all the time. What about the kids dont like sports? I dont know. I guess they would have to have kids like age 7 ? 8?

But is the sport that makes it different? Now according to a keep google, Hockey moms are "more intense" than soccer moms. What the heck does that mean they speed in their minivans? They stay up to 10:30 on Saturday nights not 10pm like the Soccer Mom counter parts?

"Party on!"


I wanted bad ass Flyers picture for the count down to the season.
I did several image searches. I found a real cool one, but everyone was gone in the picture except Gags.

I did one for Jeff Carter and Mike Richards. This awesome picture came up of Richie and Carts living it up with some young ladies. NOt sure when it was taken. I actually think they might be goofing around. Looks like the cap is still on the bottle. Regardless its a cool picture.

Almost time to get back to the rink though boys.

"Old Man and the Rink"


Chris Cheilos is back for one more go around.
The 46 yearold d-man signed one more year with the redwings.

He is closing in on the oldest dude ever to play the game.

Sweet.
Hextall broke his wrist once back in the mid 80s and now I think Hexy's son close to becoming a professional hockey player.

Fun Facts:
I was 3 maybe 4 the first time he played an NHL game
This is CHeilos 25th season in the NHL

Neither Crosby or Alex O were born yet when he started playing in the NHL
he is 28 years older than the youngest player in the NHL.

He is good friends with Dr. Cox

HE is his own resturant Chellis Chilli

Someone was stabbed and killed at his resturant a few years ago
CHeilos was a healthy scratch during all games of the finals last season
.
An intoxicated Cheilos droped the cup and banged it up pretty bad last spring, while handing it to someone at the bar at his resturant.

The other dude dropped it and it slammed on the floor.

He also drunkenly left the cup behind in a cab. (although that might have just been an interenet rumor)

"People are Just Stupid"

I saw the very funny Tropic Thunder this past week.


The movie stars Ben Stiller who has voiced characters and cartoons and also did a movie called Night at the Musuem (actually not a bad movie) which was a family movie. THat is only one of the reasons I can imagine that two women brought their two 7 yearold kids to see the movie.

The other two are.

They are just awful parents.
or they were too selfish and drug kids to an R rated movie because no one would watch their little brats.

To be fair the kids were pretty well behaved. But, clearly bored and they kept getting up during the movie. But that is the parents fault. Not only did this movie have about 30 something F-bombs, people getting shot at, drug use, and various other foul words, it was NOT aimed at kids.

What is a 7 year old going to get out of a movie about guys making a movie? I highly doubt the 7 year old got the Apocalypse now reference either.

What is wrong with these people? Go take the kids to see space chimps or spend the money on tickets (almost 10 bucks for adults) on back to school clothes or something!

They ended up walking out of the movie. What did they expect?!? It was rated R. Plus there is this thing called the Internet where you can...I don't know see if its good to bring a 7 year old to or not.

Why are there so many stupid parents out there?
