QUACK!!

I don't know what's more bizarre. That the Anaheim Ducks won Lord Stanley's cup and brought it to the west coast for the first time, or that no one seems to really care. I'm a bandwagon hockey fan so it doesn't matter to me though I would prefer if the Coyotes could do something to make me more than indifferent. Anyways, today they had the Cup on public display down in Anaheim. I was tempted to drive down and see it. It's one of those mystifying objects, not just in sports but in mainstream society. So that puts me in the dilemma of doing the drive down there to see it and taking up most of the day. OR I'm going to do what I'm doing now, passing on that chance and hoping maybe someday it will be around where I can check it out. The truth is I can't do what I really want to do. I want Lord Stanley's cup. I want to 'hang' with it like the champions do. That would be fun and completely awesome. The other really cool thing about the Ducks that I found out, is that they play one of my all time favorite songs everytime they score a goal.

"Bro Hymn" - Pennywise

Mind you there's a ton of reasons why I love this band. Partly, because the song is so good and it's straight up SoCal punk. Also, because I got to see this band live as a freshman in college and I got to get on stage multiple times, to stage dive and also to sing the chorus to bro hymn with about 40 other guys.
