I could never get into it as a kid - always thought it was for dumb brutes, but after watching my son play I started appreciating the skill and stamina required. Non-stop action for 1 hour. The kids come off the ice completely sweat-drenched. Big difference from the dreadfully slow pace of a Yanks/Sox game where fat bodies like David Wells get big $$. I'm originally from Jersey (hence my love of the Yankees) but I've been living in Boston for half my life. Started watching the Bruins this year because that's who my kid likes. It feels very weird to be a Bruins fan and a Yankees fan. I just feel wrong, but I've gotta say that the stanley cup playoffs have been damned exciting. My son started playing hockey last year.
