HOCKEY!!!
So the hockey season is starting tonight for all us Canadiens fans.
This is great, I’m so excited.
We have a good team this year, they’ve been building it for the last 6 or 7 years, we just keep adding pieces to the puzzle. I’m very impressed with Bob Gainey, good man. And hiring Carbonneau….wow, didn’t see that one coming.
We have the team, now all they have to do is be as good on the ice as they are on paper….
I’d like to, if I may, and I can because this is a blog and nobody reads it so I can say whatever I want CUNT I’d like to talk about being a fan.
It means that when my team is playing, when the season is happening, I have an arbitrary outlet for my emotions. I consciously choose to let my emotional framework be controlled by something outside of myself. I no longer have to blame myself for being in a bad mood, no longer do I control my feelings, it’s great, I allow the fortunes of the Habs to guide me.
This explains to me a lot about control, you know, like the Romans. Such an arbitrary choice, allowing a sports team to guide you, and yet there’s something nice about it. It’s a pack mentality driven by passion, which means that the pack is more ridiculous than other kinds of hiveminds.
I don’t really want to continue this post, there is plenty of possible material but you know, right now, I’m just not in the mood to be thinking.
GO HABS GO!
