this is what you get for being greedy in hockey and let your ego take over your career.
detroit red wings goaltender curtis joseph was assigned to grand rapids of the american hockey league on monday.

see, like raymond bourque a few years back, joseph asked to be traded to a team who could win the much-coveted stanley cup. i never liked this way of thinking. what's the fuckin point? of course the stanley cup is the ultimate prize in hockey. but that's not the fucking goal. it's like playing with a loaded dice. what's the fuckin point? there's no challenge. i understand wanting to win a stanley cup before you go, but shit, that's just the most artificial way to do it. the only point is being able to put that on your stats sheet. i always thought that was a fuckin lazy way to go about it and i've always lost respect for those who did. and now joseph is just fuckin getting what he deserves.

in other news, congrats to montreal for winning another one last. 2-1 against detroit. i didn't see the game but on paper it looks like the habs had to fight their way out of a sure loss.

oh yeah! we got our first snow last night!!!
yeah.
as we were coming out of work at midnight it was raining like hell. but then, as we were walking to our cars, it started look a little bit like a combination of rain and wet snow. i wasn't even at my car when it changed to full-blown snow. it's still there this morning but it's raining now. only the grass is slightly covered. the streets are just wet. don't worry, this ain't the start of winter just yet. we'll be getting much mroe rain before that. it's way too fuckin early for that. shit, it's the day before my birthday. how fucked is that?
