The Hockey Player
the cockiest, dirtiest, most irresponsible group of atheletes in the
world. Will do anything and come back to tell his team mates about it.
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.

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 there is nothing like the party in the locker room,
because your invincible once you step on the ice,
because a shot can make you smile all night,
sniping the twine, "Sniper",
the battling 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 perfume of our accomplishment.
Why? Why would someone push themselves so hard?
It's not for the money, it's not for the girls, and it's not for the fame.

We sit there.... an hour before game time, visualizing, dreaming up the way we are going to play. We don't know why we do it, it just happens, its how we relax before game time. Lace up the Skates, Strap on the Helmet, and put on the gloves and walk onto the ice and nothing else matters. Not your amazing girlfriend thats in the stands, not your plans after the game, nothing, your there for a reason and thats to win, nothing will get in your way. Adrenaline pumps and we gasp for air but still we skate on, theres no way i'm letting that puck go in my net, 60 Minutes of this pain and hard work. It all comes down to this the last shift of the game. You sacrifice your body to stop that puck, you know its going to hurt but you do itanyways. The puck rebounds of your body, you can feel the bone break, but still you watch as your teammate skates up and scores the winning goal.
Oooo yeah it was worth it.
