Pond's Good For You

If this state had a real hockey commissioner instead of an AWOL paunchy pretender to the throne, he no doubt would be on hand to drop the puck at the opening face-off of the U.S. Pond Hockey Championships, which will take place on the frozen surface of Lake Calhoun on January 20th-22nd.

As I true citizen of the "State of Hockey," I will be there playing with a team called the Minneapolis Millers. I understand that Governor Pawlenty will also be on hand for the festivities. Maybe I'll have a chance to chat with him about the possible political implications of having a hockey commissioner who lives in California and thinks a wrist shot is what the doctor gives you after you trip over the curb and fall while jogging.
