are all of u for real, its the best sport on the planet. basketball: a bunch of lanky black people throwing a ball into a hole and u cant even tackle each other. just no. soccer: played by small boys that cry if someone flicks them. once again, no.
ice hockey, played by ultra human god-like athletes. it has everything, its fast, physichal and was invented by the british army in canada.

the most entertaining sport there is in the WORLD....whoever said it was like watching paint dry is seriously fucked up....unlike football in which the game stops every 5- 10 seconds, it is fastpaced and physical...basketball is cool too but if u dare graze someone while they are shooting...a foul is called on you...damn pusssys....hockey requires all the fucking skill and talent in the world...in basketball if you can shoot a ball into a hoop...you'll be somewhat good...but in hockey you have to know how to skate, shoot, check, skate backwards, and block shots with your body...psstt im canadian and IM PROUD TO LIKE HOCKEY

A fast paced, entertaining sport in which all the players have to be skilled and have a high endurance. It's one of the hardest sports to play! That makes me even prouder to be a hocey fan.
Unfortunately, this sport is run by an american who could care less if nobody watches the wonderful game in America. (Hockey isn't broadcasted on ESPN?!)
I don't mean to steriotype amercians, because I know many of them love hockey, but it's ridculously sad what the US is doing to this awesome sport!

it's not just a sport...it's THE sport. Canada isn't just the only place where there are crazy people. Pittsburgh has them too...Hockey is the greatest sport in the world and there are also GORGEOUS players...

The Sport that Owns all! ; a sport that gets you true respect

It's a team MMA fight and everyone has 3 foot wooden(sometimes carbon fiber) sticks! Bring a helmet!

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.
