I also voted for the NHl..to watch the playoffs in Hockey..the game is already amped up as it is, but to watch in the playoffs, my god..speed, intensity, grit, blood, every save making your heart stop, every shot making you jump up when you think your team has a damn good shot at scoring..with hockey it's all anticipation and you just dont get that with other sports as much.
To watch them skate up and down, full tilt..hardly any whisteles..damn I want some hockey now.
Prime example of playof hockey. Last year, Darcy Tucker levels a full speed sami kapanen into the boards..sami has lost all awareness of where he is, he was basically smoked(have that hit on my pc saved baby) he does not give up and lay down..he tries to find a way back to the bench but is falling all over the place, he looked like he was doing a break dance..his teammates finally pull him over the bench and they go on to score in OT man!! Eliminating the leafs. If sami does not get up, whistle blows, play stops. The hit was brutal and amazing but the courage and drive of sami was even more so. That is the NHL and that is playoff hockey.
Vince Carter whines when he stubs his finger. It just isnt the same in other sports..alot of football games are blowouts, especially the super bowl..world series and playoff games take forever and plod along slowly..basketball is just crap.
