... to all of you Blackhawks fans out there, I'm-a gonna take a trick from the Pope's bag of trickery (note -- no offense is intended to any readers who might be hardcore Catholics -- I'm actually usually an equal opportunity offender when it comes to institutionalized religion's decision to collectively focus on the judgy side of their doctrines and ignore the love parts as they each attempt to corner the world market on being "right" and killing and prosecuting and persecuting anyone who doesn't believe as they do ... but I digress) ...
... and I'm going to offer up a dispensation, that, at least in Chicago tonight where it is muggy and humid and not that far away from 90 degrees -- NO ONE will judge your level of fan support if you choose to not wear the long-sleeved, made-for-cold-conditions jerseys.
Instead, feel free to do up the face paint (or hell, with these temps, the body paint) and know that we'll know for whom you're cheering just by your general state of drunkenness (and, Hossa willing, the smile on your face in only a few hours).
And remember, please -- save the rioting for when we reclaim Lord Stanley's cup and behave tonight ('cause I'll be out drinking and I don't want any of that kind of behavior to spoil my buzz).
[NOTE: I am aware that the other team seen in the pic is the Canucks and not the Bruins -- but, when it comes to the free images on google (they are free, right?), this one demonstrated best the type of person whom I thought might be subject to heat exhaustion if he dressed the same way to enjoy tonight's game.]
SO IS HE PLAYING OR NOT?:
