I knew what the penalty meant last year during the playoff games but that info managed to leak out of my sieve-like brain over the summer!Steelers Wine Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13440653264936271141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4066919102499799494.post-40762386027960768032008-11-02T17:30:00.000-05:002008-11-02T17:30:00.000-05:00Offsides in hockey is when a player crosses the bl...Offsides in hockey is when a player crosses the blue line before the puck crosses it. Crosby had probably skated to the opposite side before rallying back to let his team do a line change - the players only spend 30 seconds to a minute on the ice before they switch it up. Sometimes shorter and sometimes longer, but yeah. I heart hockey.Courtneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11869708027208651046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4066919102499799494.post-74448750586491406492008-10-30T08:14:00.000-04:002008-10-30T08:14:00.000-04:00I am fairly anti-baseball as well.

And you'll never catch me watching it on TV or listening to it on the radio!Steelers Wine Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13440653264936271141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4066919102499799494.post-5414810589230111152008-10-29T23:55:00.000-04:002008-10-29T23:55:00.000-04:00As for offsides... it's as confusing in hockey as ...As for offsides... it's as confusing in hockey as in soccer. Unless you play/coach the sport it can be difficult to follow.<BR/><BR/>As long as you aren't at a baseball game, I'm good to go. I've been known to fall asleep in a pro game before (even in the beloved Pirates PNC Park). Such a long, boring game... (and this is coming from a lover of sports).Andihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06851190062644892399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4066919102499799494.post-2998411145925642102008-10-29T13:31:00.000-04:002008-10-29T13:31:00.000-04:00I did have a good time at the game.

I only really started to have a wee tiny interest in hockey last year when the Pens were in the playoffs, so this is fairly new to me. <BR/><BR/>I know if I was a bigger fan I would have been more into the game, but it was still fun when we scored. I still don't get the fight thing, but at least it was entertaining!!Steelers Wine Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13440653264936271141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4066919102499799494.post-79171571756978926002008-10-28T19:45:00.000-04:002008-10-28T19:45:00.000-04:00Everything you listed (minus no cupholders, what i...Everything you listed (minus no cupholders, what is up with that?) is why I love going to hockey games! In fact I may be going to one on Halloween! I understand hockey more than football so maybe that is why I enjoy it more. And it is weird because I hate the cold so how can I be in a frigid arena and be happy? But I love the energy and the music (there is no polka here...must be a midwest thing) and the fights! And the refs can not interfere with a fight unless they hit the ice. That is the rule. How cool is that!Cupcake Blondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10588999664483664504noreply@blogger.com
