I’m not too hip to pop culture, and so the fact that Tori Spelling has a reality television show with her Canadian love monkey Dean McDermott had barely registered on my radar. 
That is, till Dean brought a video camera to the arena with him to play some hockey, and explained why he needs the sport in his life:
“I kinda need my man-fix… I’m feeling like a bit of a housewife.”
and
“F#@k, we’re guys. We’re stupid. We need to be stupid!”
And (God love him, he makes my day) he says this all while wearing an Edmonton Oilers jersey t-shirt. Here’s the video:

Ha!
Well, I just enjoy the whole thing because it scores me a trifecta. In my own warped mind, I get to make fun of men in general, Hollywood goofiness, and Oilers fans… all at the same time!

Isn’t that a Hamilton Bulldogs jersey? Not an Edmonton Oilers jersey?

I was talking about 30 seconds in, when he’s in the locker room, he’s wearing an Oilers t-shirt. (I said jersey because I wasn’t paying enough attention, just looking at the logo. whoops!)
Is the jersey from the Hamilton Bulldogs, though? Now that I won’t make fun of.

It is, indeed, from their days as an Oilers farm team. Nice, obscure find.
