There is love......


There are things about team sports that scream chemistry and  camaraderie.  Sometimes when a team gets together, certain "bonds" are created.  Sometimes those connections are incendiary - even if they are playing opposite wings!  Huh?  Exactly!

Dates - Father's Day

Who doesn't remember that special date where you celebrate your Dad - regardless of whether it was his seed that created you?  That's right Happy Father's Day, or in some cases....Step-Dad's Day!

WTF?

Dates.....

Last Sunday Cam Neely turned 45.  "Sea Bass" could kick Clint Eastwood's ass - and I think we all know what that means for a sissy like you!

A great penalty?

There is such thing as a good penalty.  And I suppose on rare occasion the coach might actually thank you.  Well if that does occur, it definitely did after this penalty by Matt Hunwick of the Bruins.  The NHL record-setting video is below.

More love for the Blue Devils?!?!

We already showed you E5 proudly sporting a Duke hockey jersey...and the love continues.  During the NCAA lacrosse tournament the announcers typically spent a lot of time talking about Duke's two all-americans on Attack, Ned Crotty and Max Quinzani.

They mentioned that Crotty was a two-time all-State hockey player in New Jersey, won a player of the year award, and had recently been elected into the state's high school hockey hall of fame.

Quinzani, from Duxbury, MA - with 68 goals last season and 199 for his career, was also an excellent hockey player as he led his high school hockey team to a state title.  More importantly, while at Duke he changed his number from # 16 to # 8 - because it was "more slimming" and because of his all-time favorite hockey player - who else but Cam Neely.  Gotta love that guy!
