Hockey is great, the NHL though is amazingly dumb. If you've followed the league for any amount of time, you can't help but concur with McIndoe's gentle sarcasm about the decision makers in pro hockey.

This was almost unfair. I am a huge fan of the writer and his blog. It is not easy to write 'funny' but Down Goes Brown is the most successful that I have read for sports. Most of the time, especially in sports, attempts at humour come off as snarky or just dim witted but Sean does an amazing job with his humor. He is also a great follow on Twitter.
