All American Hockey

I LOVE HOCKEY!!! Today I found out that I love hockey, yep pretty much my new fav. So we made it to Kenniwick late friday night and pretty much headed straight to bed. We all got
a good nights rest and we're up bright and early today (no thanks to the dogs). Brad and vic drove us around and gave us the tour of this booming metropolis they call home (huge!!!).
Its odd I never thought I would like washington as much as I do, this place is really starting to grow on me. So all day we were hanging out taking in the sights, kicking back enjoying our
time away from home. But as soon as dusk set in, it was time for some action. Now I had never been to a Hockey game before in my life and I wasnt quite sure what to expect.... I was blown away there is more contact in the first period
of this game then there is in a whole four quarters of a foot ball. I dont think I have seen as may punchs thrown in a boxing match as I did out on the ice. Its clear that there is no love loss between teams. With hockey, sportsman ship goes right out the window and I love it. The home Tri-City Americans used their skates, sticks, and fists to move the puck and become victorious over the Spokane cheifs on the day that all Americans need a victory. Congratulations to the Americans for winning the tribute game to our coutry on 9/11 with a 2 to 1 victory.
