Another Reason Hockey Is Better
I really like how the NHL does not schedule games over Christmas so players can be where they should be: with their families. The greedy NBA on the other hand, forces players and arena employees away from their families on Christmas. Fuck you David Stern. No game or TV revenue is that important.

Gets Me Every Time
I have a confession. I have been in a very bah humbug mood this year. For whatever reason, I just cannot get into the spirit of the holidays. I've baked cookies, listened to Mannheim Steamroller, wrapped presents for my nieces and nephews and I still feel like I want to stay in bed until December 26. However, despite my lack of enthusiasm this holiday season, there is one song which tugs at my heart strings every time I hear it. I can't help but tear up during each listen. The song is "Old City Bar" by Trans-Siberian Orchestra. For those of you unfamiliar with the song, the message is about helping a neighbor or even a stranger purely out of kindness and compassion. The story told throughout the song truly brings to life what Christmas is supposed to be about and there is no religious aspects whatsoever. So I ask you all (Christian or not) to take a few minutes and watch the video below. Thank you. :-)
