Well, reaching the finals twice in a row, and still don't win the damn thing is also very annoying. I'm just glad we at least won the Eurocup once, but that's a long time ago (1988). It's about time for another cup.

1988 is better than 1966 though

Originally posted by johnny: Iron Ranger, you wanted me to name one thing football has that hockey doesn't, so here you go: A ball, grass, a ref who doesn't wear striped shirts, bigger teams, open stadiums, intelligent players. Good enough for ya ?

A ball is unorginal, plus, a puck is more difficult to controll on ice, making it more of a challenge, so therefor its funner to watch.

Grass is itchy

Football refs dont wear striped shirts?

Bigger teams, yeah, but do you really know the left defensive third tackle for your team? Who cares?

Hockey has been known to be played in open stadiums.

Intelligent players, to name a few from the NHL, Igor Larionov, Alexi Yashin, Artrus Irbe, among others. Good enough for ya?

Katilia, of course I was talking about Ice hockey.

Kaltia. Maybe I should collect the different spellings of my name too...
The reason i added that was because I play normal hockey.

I dont see the connection, excuse me if I seemed rude.
