Its crazy to describe why you end up cheering for your team so passionately but you do . It is sweet when your team wins and heartbreaking to lose a close one in the play offs. Many non sports types just don't get it . But at this point I want to give a shout out to my wife , who has helped me calm done (a bit) buy both understanding and at the same time , poking fun at me when I needed it. Thanks babe.
So bottom line , the Bruins eliminated the Canadians tonight , in a 7th game in sudden death overtime. So for all those Hab fans that taunted me , teased me and made my life miserable , I say .....NA NA NA NA ,NA NA NA NA ,Hey , Hey,Hey ....GOODBYE. I say that with all the grace I can muster .

For those readers, among us, who are not Canadians, welcome and let me explain something. For Canadians, hockey is our baseball. It is a national obsession. Back before time began, God created the Universe in 6 days. On the 7th, He rested. On the 8th, he created hockey. If you believe that than you know you're Canadian.
The 7th game, in sudden death overtime, is like bottom of the 9th and the bases are loaded. Somebody is about to be a hero or the goat. FYI, do not walk in front of the TV, EVER.
The Boston Bruins and the Montreal Canadians are arch rivals, since the beginning of their teams existence. Today, we have more hockey teams then you can shake a stick at. However, there was once only the original 6. Boston and Montreal were 2 of them (don't be lazy, google the rest). Their rivalry is right up there with the Red Sox and the Yankees and of equal notoriety. So, dear readers, now you know.
I remember when I first met you. Your reputation for being a scary crank pot was legendary. Mind you, people also thought you were quiet and didn't talk much. Like I said, "HILARIOUS!!"
Both impressions are so far from the truth. If you were such a quiet crankpot why then, whenever anything goes wrong, are you the first one everybody turns to? I noticed something else, as well, sometimes there should have been a 5 second censor delay. Seriously, you'd be growling away and occaionally throwing stuff but you'd never hit anybody. I realized you were just blowing off steam. Still, so glad you've out grown that.
I'd only known you for just a few months and they'd known you for 21 years and 2 days, when I met you. I can't believe nobody else noticed it. So, I started teasing you and laughing at you. Your whole family looked at me like I was about to die a very painful death. They took you far too seriously, you're a pussy cat.
Seriously Hon', anything that makes you happy makes me happy. Watching that game definitely made you happy. Love you, Mrs Reg
