I'm not talking about some heavily padded game where morons slide around on frozen water and think with their fists. I'm talking about HOCKEY. The real hockey. What Americans call "field" hockey. And just before you make some ridiculous claim that "Ice hockey is way better, and has been around longer and is way more popular" check the facts.
1.) Field hockey is an Olympic sport with a world cup.
2.) It's played in North America, South America, Aisa, Australia, and Europe.
3.) It's vastly popular in places like England, The Netherlands, China, Australia, New Zealand, Germany, Spain, Argentina, India, Pakistan, The United States, ect.
4.) There are famous field hockey players; Teun De Noojer, Christopher Zeller, Nikki Hudson, ect.
5.) The earliest forms of the game date back to 500BC, and depictions from the ancient Egyptians playing hockey (the real hockey that is) have been discovered.

Oh and before you go saying how "it's a girl's sport", think again. Some of the best players in the world are men. The only reason, the U.S. views it like that is because it was introduced to the country in the early 1900's via an English Woman.

The best and most entertaining sport out there. PERIOD.

Sadly, hockey's greatness isn't appreciated everywhere. But in Canada, we live and breathe this game, this one sport is intrinsically what links a nation together, it's a part of our heritage.

We even celebrate "Hockey Day in Canada." The passion and love for this game extends to young and old alike, children in pee wee games across the country dream about living the ultimate fantasy and playing in the NHL.

Nothing brings together a city more than a winning local team, nothing brings together a country more than winning on an international level(again, and again and again, I might add).

I get goosebumps when the crowd sings along with O' Canada, I feel giddy when I hear the HNIC theme song, I leave work early or skip class when my schedule interferes with a hockey game, I wear my hockey jersies proudly after a big win, I have crazy game day rituals and I jump up when we score. I'm blissfully happy when my team wins and torn after a loss.
DON'T TELL ME IT'S JUST A GAME.

best fuckin sport on earth.... all you baseball losers should go try a real sport like hockey..

The greatest sport in the world. its not just a game, its a lifestyle. hockey players are the greatest athletes of all.

The best sport in the world.

Hockey: It's fast paced. It's exciting. You have to be a true athlete to play it. Every game is unique unlike baseball where I see the same Fucking diving catch that I could make in a heart beat.

Basketball: Yeah fast pace, insane dunks are cool however I've never seen so many babies getting minorly tapped or complaining that someone grazed their hand while shooting. Fouls are for fags!

Baseball: The most boring sport in the world. It's a fun sport to play but it's like watching paint dry. Also, you can be an overweight loser who has good hand-eye cordnation and be a superstar. I've chewd tobacco a number of years and what kind of sport allows you to playn chew honestly


Football: Maybe if the game didn't stop after every 10 seconds I'd like it!!!

The most physical sport ever. Challenging, fun, kicks other sports' asses. Best when played on ice.

the best sport in the whole world. anyone who doesn't like it is on crack.
