Another Youtube NHL hockey brawl - ain't it all just effin grand?
By Terrance O'Gavan - PTE Managing Editor
The Sean Avery sucker punch and the crap that follows is a disgrace and an embarassment.
So much said ín the space of this two minute video is exasperating and embarassing.
In no other sport in the world is such bullshit behavior rewarded in such frozen terms.
Soccer?
Gone!
Football?
Gone!
Basketball?
Gone!
Baseball?
Gone!
Hockey?
Apparently it's just another day at the rink.
Sucker punches. Fights.
Kunckle-dragging pissant pugilists getting $1.5 million per annum for doing nothing.
Except answering the bell when another pissant knuckledragger like Sean Avery gets outta' hand.
Disgusting.
Uninteresting.
No talent.
Boring.
Humiliating.
And just plain ugly.
This is why hockey is not regarded as a sport.
More likely to be viewed as trailer park trash.
By the rest of the world.
We have removed fighting from all other organized sports.
In Canada we treat our youngsters to the You Tube extravaganzas seen below.
It's batcrap crazy.
I'm sick, tired and flummoxed by a sport that feels the sheer beauty of the game is not enough to draw fans.
So the league refuses to deaL WITH IT.
SPOUTING TIRED OLD DOGGEREL LIKE: We need it.
Players need it.
It stops the cheap shots.
It's fan friendly.
A whack through the wonky noodle of an inveterate sports junky. Just a guy who loves sports and feels blessed to be able to write and blog on the daily meanders.

DOC director finds time-travelling dude in drag talking on a cell phone in a crowd scene in an old Chaplin movie ... this is a bizarre sequence which has no apparent explanation ...

Occasionally we stray.
Pardon the Eruption is a sports site, but the Managing Editor Terrance Gavan is a bon vivant, techno junkie and political pundit of the lowest variety.
So occasionally we come upon a post that captures our imagination.
Read or watch on MacDuffs and mac Duffettes ...
It is posted below from You Tube and Ireland ... posted because check out the full mane (sic - also apparently dyslexic) NAME of the PTE managing efitor.
He's a sucker for the wee Irish lilt .... oh and PARDON MY EEEEEEERRRRRRUUUUPTION!
Love the Gav
