if you love "All Quiet on the Western Front," "Moby Dick," or "A Tale of Two Cities," then prepare to hate all of them with a passion. For this one Autobiography will make you think that all other books look like toilet paper

keep useless comments to yourself

people, insulting others is not nice, love one another. Let me talk about hockey for a second. I like hockey, I'm a big fan of the game, however, there's one aspect that makes no sense to me. Say the Edmonton Oilers are playing the Calgary Flames. Here's the scenario: Ryan Smyth (oilers) gets a high sticking penalty, so he's in the box for two minutes, Calgary has a power play. Now the regular rules state that if Calgary scores before the power play is over, then Smyth gets to exit the penalty box before the two minutes are up. However, if Edmonton scores while they're short handed, then nothing happens. Now, this doesn't make sense. Shouldn't the rules say that if Edmonton scores while short handed, then their player is released early? That seems to be a lot more incentive to score a goal then just the fact that they can get another point. I don't know, some people don't have much logic.

I agree Andy should be nicer.

But there is no logic in rewarding someone for breaking the rules. If a hockey player does not have enough self-motivation to win, letting one of their guys out of the penalty box early isn't going to help.

P.S. HOCKEY IS THE ULTIMATE SPORT!
