Stanley Cup
We are well into the Stanley Cup finals at the moment - the best looking trophy in sports. Nashville Predators versus Pittsburgh Penguins. That's ice hockey for those not in the know. I don't really have a strong preference either way as to who I want to win - I don't like the Pittsburgh Steelers (that's American Football), so I guess that transfers to not liking the Penguins as well. And apparently Trump thinks Pittsburgh is more important than Paris (even though it voted strongly Democrat in the election). But I was shocked to notice that Nashville has a black ice hockey player. I don't think I've ever seen one before. It's almost as rare as seeing a black person watching a golf tournament. But I think all sports should have the tradition of not shaving during the playoffs - it's good to see that many players have as bad a playoff beard as I would have.
