22 May, 2008

My friend’s wife, a Minnesota native, loves a good hockey fight. Oh, she’ll attend fight-free games and enjoy them, but it’s really the fights that get her blood boiling and make the game exciting for her. She is not alone. The divide between fight fans and fight haters is deeper than ever, with pundits and [...]
