So, what happened today?

I met up with a good friend of mine that I rarely see these days to see our hockey team play the second match of the playoff semi final against our rivals. On my way home now.

A sold out arena, which is rare, and our boys serve up the most spineless performance you can imagine. Puck loss in our own zone again and again, one of our supposed best defenders looking like Tramezzani on heroin. 5 min pen to one of their players, and then another 2 a min later, so we had almost 4 minutes 5 vs 3, yet no goal. We're the Spurs of Norwegian hockey, a laughing stock. Just like Spurs, we haven't won anything of note since 2008.

So 2-0 in games (best of 7 series), and we're pretty much out against a team that is simply levels better than us. fudge.

You do learn to lose following these teams. It was nice to see my friend though!

When you win it you will enjoy it even more.........some fudger told me that once but he was wrong. It is just endless sports misery because of the teams you follow.

Yeah, thankfully you get kind of sanded down by life as you get older and stop caring as much. My friend and I were discussing last night how few enjoyable things we have left in this world that isn't about some fudger wanting to make money off of you. The actual watching of what is going on at the pitch is one of them. But then you look up at any one point and it's buy this, buy that blah blah blah. Don't know where I'm going with this. Modern life sucks, haha.

@Daisuk - Do you follow Cricket? Your county team will be Somerset. Sorry about that.

But they have a strong side now and it is their 150th year but they have never won the county championship in all that time haha - enjoy.

Tell me about it. I drag my Brian Langford jersey out of the cupboard every now and then and have a little sob in it. Just feel numb now.
