I am sitting here, watching Barry Melrose on ESPN, and I must confess I really don’t get it. For the most part I understand hockey, thanks to the Pee Dee Pride and a guy that sat behind me one night that sounded JUST LIKE Jeff Foxworthy (and to hear THAT accent explaining ICING was a real treat). But, the whole strategic fighting thing to me is just violence.
I guess they would equate it with a pitcher throwing at a guy to send a message . . . But the TRUTH is it keeps people in the seats. As long as guys are willing to do it, and as long as fans WANT it, it will happen.
Seriously, last night we had our Fall Festival and once again there were HUNDREDS and it was great!!!
