Angelus said: I've never really understood the appeal of hockey. I mean don't get me wrong, it's far from the worst sport out there, it's certainly pretty entertaining to watch as there's never lack of something happening. Still.......every time I see it I can't help but think "this is just a bunch of dudes who where too pussy to become boxers or fighters, but still wanted a profession that allows them to constantly beat the shit out of each other"

You clearly no nothing about it. it's not about fighting, it's a skill game. It's very much like soccer, excepet you do need to be tougher to play it because you will take contanct and fight through scrums. It perhaps takes more skill than any other activity, combining speed, strength, reflexes, quick decsision making, hand co-ordination, balance and the intelligience to anticipate plays and make the correct one. People play it to score goals or to stop them, and to compete to win. Fighing has almost nothing to do with it.
