[Leica] Another, ahem, shot at hockey

[sethrosner at nycap.rr.com (Seth Rosner)]

Adam, so where the h*ll are the defensemen? One poor black-shirted goaler 
and three white shirts right in front of the blinkin' goal? OF COURSE it's a 
goal.

And the other shot (centering pass), again, just look at the three 
black-shirts standing over yonder with their sticks up their.........looking 
back and wondering how all those white shirts got to congregate in front of 
the net,  salivating for a swipe at the puck. Not fair.

I used to play ice hockey (poorly, not a good enough skater) and also had NY 
Ranger season tix at the Garden for maybe a dozen years. That goaler should 
put in for a pay raise or ask for a trade to the Baghdad Desert Rats. 
Probably be safer.    ;-)
