I'm looking forward to NLL lacrosse in January. If the lockout is still on, that'll probably replace my hockey fix. It is, after all, rather similar.

Until then, I have found myself watching some of that World Series of Poker stuff. It's fairly entertaining. I've seen the odd non-NHL or classic NHL game.

I have yet to watch more than a few minutes of any NFL or NBA game this season but I did watch some CFL playoff games back when that was on.

I forgot about college sports. They get little interest up here. I was about to say that it includes our colleges too but perhaps I should go a bit further and say especially for our colleges.

I'm lucky to have an AHL team in the city where I live at. I only go to 1 game a year, but I need to go to more games. I have started to play more hockey games to past the time. I'm currently playing NHL Hitz Pro. I do have NHL 2k5, which I'll play once I'm tired of NHL Hitz Pro. At least they are meeting next week. Its better then nothing.

Wait...you mean there actually was a Hockey league?......with professionals?

oh yeah I remember now guys like Gordie Howe, Wayne Gretzky, and Mario Lemeiux used to play right?

since those days I haven't cared much about professional hockey so it can stay gone as long as it likes
