When you look back at all the oppurtunities you gave up...
The Dates...The Dances...The Parties...The Holidays...
It all seemed like it was a huge sacrifice,
but when you finally make it to the show...
It'll seem all right

"The Boys Play Because We Love It"
MY HOME
"Before the game some guys get
fired up by listning to music.
While some get it from the chanting of the crowd.
Some get it by listning to the coaches pep-talk.
And some listen to nothing at all.
Theres only one thing that gets me fired up.
The voice of every person who said
I was to small to make it."
-Martin St.Louis
Hockey Players
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, 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 LOVE IT!!!!
