Huh?

As far as "ice hockey" goes, there are other forms of hockey (street, field,
etc.). What in the world makes you think that "hockey" is the official name
for the sport? Why shouldn't someone call the form of hockey that's played
on ice "ice hockey"?

If you want to call American football "grass football", that's fine with me.
It's not like anyone else in the world calls it "football" anyway, since
they have a different sport by that name.

If you're gonna peeve, you oughta at least be able to provide an official
source for your peeve. Where is it?

Pete

you'll need to set your Outlook Express to post in your preferred cyrillic
encoding (Tools/Options/Send/International Settings), either KOI-8 or
Win-1251 in order for it show up properly, but changing it will also default
your e-mail encoding to that and will annoy the heck out of your
non-russian recepients by notifying them of non-english encoding every time
they open your e-mail.

Greetings from Alberta..... The home of tasty Alberta beef,
and the Calgary flames who just happen to be leading the
San Jose Sharks as they go into the third period.

GO FLAMES GO

And thanks for the picture HECTOP.... It's a keeper.

And no last-minute comeback.

Congrats, all you Alberta fans of the Flames.
