I just logged into blogger and they've changed their editing interface. Looks a lot nicer. Hopefully, it works a lot better too.

Anyway, The 2002-03 NHL Season is over. The New Jersey Devils were crowned the Stanley Cup Champions last night. As I watching the dying minutes and seconds of that game, I kept thinking how cool all the tradition in hockey is. There is no other sport with a trophy like the Stanley Cup. It is by far the best trophy in pro sports. Nothing even comes close (well maybe the CFL Grey Cup) but other than that, the MLB trophy with all those stupid flags SUCKS, the NBA trophy is this dumb gold ball on the edge of a net. The Super Bowl for the NFL ain't too cool either and the NCAA Basketball award is a Plaque. Man that is weak.

Holding the cup with both hands above your head! Now that is cool.
Getting your name engraved on the Cup! That is really awesome.
Getting to keep the cup in your posession for a couple of days! That is just downright wicked.

The Cup has been in some crazy places...strip clubs, all over the world, swimming pools, and a bunch of other stuff I'm sure. It's been damaged a few times because it was dropped. And just about everything has been drunk from the Cup as well.

I AM going to bed early tonight. It's 10:00 pm and I should be under the covers by 10:30
Good night.

p.s. My neighbours are still PISSING ME OFF!!!
