our mother was the referee

I feel truly honored. (Mansha works too, right? Too bad bro doesn't really work for any of our names. The closest I suppose is Alex Sciubro. No?)

I went to a hockey game last night with my stepdad. SO MANLY. Checking is great, the crowd absolutely went wild. Oh, that booming sound of the players getting pushed into the plexiglass. Fantastic. Also, fights are ridiculous, I wish I could hear what the players were saying to each other. It was probably about their moms.

Minnesota Wild 3, Phoenix Coyotes 1. YESSSSS.

We sang a song, called the MN Wild Anthem. So intense. Minnesotans are crazy. There were 18,500 people in that arena.

MINNESOTA WILD ANTHEM

We were raised
With the stick
And a pair of blades
On the ice we cut our teeth
We took our knocks
In the penalty box
Our mother was the referee

This sport was here
Before we came
It will be here when we're gone
The game's in our blood
And our blood's in the game
Lay us down under
A frozen pond

We will fight to the end
We will stand and defend
Our flag flying high and free
We were born the child
Of the strong and Wild
In the State, the State of Hockey

A big blue line runs around our state
A line that can't be crossed
The day they try to take this game
Is the day the gloves come off

We will fight to the end
We will stand and defend
Our flag flying high and free
We were born the child
Of the strong and Wild
In the State, the State of Hockey.



I say we revise it and use it for the All-Stars.
