So I went out last night, buddy had a hockey game and it was his div 4 team, so pretty good hockey. There's 16 divisions in that league, 8 teams per division. I watch their game, good clean game, a little lopsided but it was good to see them doing short shifts, I mean really they play so much better that way.
So anyways, after their game I start watching another team playing, and after a few minutes I realize hey that's a chick out there. Don't jump all over me for pointing it out yet, there's a story here. Normally when there's a girl on a mixed team she's one of the top players on the team. Not so in this case, couldn't skate very well, decent shot, could pass okay. Then she lines up this guy who's got the puck, he's got about a foot and 50 pounds on her, so she goes barreling into him... and just gets creamed. But on her way down she manages to get loose the puck and pass it off to her teammate, then bounces back up and keeps playing. Hell yah, might not win, but damned if she isn't going to go down fighting, I want one of those.

I want one of those.
A woman who can go down fighting?
I used to love playing floor hockey/field hockey back in my physical education days.. I broke a stick once.
