I needed to hear this now, this 10:00 am morning.

Someday, tng, me, and steve will do a Zoom call wearing hockey jerseys. The feelings will beam out of our hockey sticks like light sabres of love.

you name the date and time.... although I must confess, I don't own a hockey sweater.

I have a lot of them. You can borrow my Ottawa senators Jersey to fit in up there. Or a red wings Jersey to piss people off. Up to you.

I have almost purchased a wings jersey SO MANY times just to piss off the haters... but $50 for IRL trolling is a younger man’s game.

For sure. Mine is from like 20 years ago (and was a gift).

I believe I still have a hockey jersey given to me by my brother (thenewgreen: not the Meatballs brother, the other one). On it is the name of a fictional major league hockey team, The Steelheads, the home team of the not fictional city of Hamilton Ontario. My brother wrote a fabulous TV drama called Power Play so he had the swag. Power Play was about an American guy who comes up to Canada to be the general manager of a hockey team. It didn't do well in the US because it had a very Canadian sensibility. It was a beautiful show.

As for date and time, I probably have more free time (that is to say, all the time) than either of you, so let's look at some times. I'll pm you with my cell # so you can text me.

I would love this.

If you two do this I will donate $100 to a charity of your choice.
