    You know I love ice hockey.  I think cheese is the one thing I love more than ice hockey.  I loved it so much as a kid, I even enjoyed getting up at 4am on Saturday mornings, giving up my cartoon time, for hockey practices.  And I was a fat kid too.  Hockey is not a friendly game to the fats.  See, I can understand when the fatter kids play soccer or basketball or are automatically a catcher in little league... but hockey is different.  I have never seen a fat kid playing ice hockey.  It is just unnatural, like sex after 60.  It is a tough sport.  You are constantly moving, you have about 20lbs of equipment on and you have to wear a restricting helmet with a mouth piece, which obstructs the wheezing.  People could die.  What I have also never seen is an Asian hockey player.  I know that black people have made great strides in the past decade in their pursuit of dominating another American sport... but never an Asian.  I think we, the American people, should make a conscious effort to get more Asians into hockey.  There are many Asian-Americans in this country, so why not recruit them to one of the nation's fondest sports?  I think this could work.  By 2010, expect a brand new National Hockey Reague.
