Life is Funny

Everyone makes fun of women and their darn Soap Operas…  People always crack jokes and say things like “Her life is one big soap opera”…

Soap opera finatics: Know all the character names, they know the history of the key characters, they watch every episode that they can, and if they miss one, they can get the latest update from their friends, the Soap Opera Digest, etc.

AND

Hockey fans: Know all the player names, they know the history of the key players, they watch every game that they can, and if they miss one, they can get the latest update from their friends, the news, etc.

So how is Hockey any different than the common Soap Opera?

I know:

Women watch Soap Operas during the day, and Men watch Hockey Soap Operas at night.

That’s the only difference.

This is why in my opinion, hockey sucks. It costs millions of dollars, for what? It’s nothing than a big time waster to the men in our country. Yes, it can be thought of a form of entertainment.

BUT!

Entertainment should not be addicting. You should be able to see ONE hockey game, enjoy it, and then leave it alone and then 6 months later, if you like, see another hockey game.

Being addicted to drugs… Being addicted to sex… Being addicted to hockey….

It’s an addiction.  Soap Operas and Hockey Games are addictions people, when will you realize it?

People think all men watch sports. Often someone will try and strike up a conversation like “hey! Did you see the game last night? See that goal in 3rd period where…”

What makes you so sure I watch hockey?

Now, for the record, I have been to a real hockey game before, and I did enjoy it. I have gotten addicted to hockey for a particular season and loved it then… But I realized that it was taking too much of my time. Getting the Pay-Per-View events was costing too much too.

I have finally decided that hockey sucks! It is a game that cannot be enjoyed in moderation.

Now is life funny, or am I the one who is funny?  What do you think, am I wrong?
