Suggestive Hockey Pools

To quote the friend who sent me the Yahoo! Sports/NHL mailer down below, “Looks like Yahoo Sports is doing a different kind of “fantasy hockey” this season!”

Seriously.  Judge for yourself:

Since I’ve taken a stand this season against entering any evil, soul-destroying hockey pools, maybe everyone but me has already seen this. But geez… I had to pass it on.

And if I may suggest a tag line for the promotion:  Fantasy Hockey Porn. Coming soon to a computer near you.

Am I missing something?  It looks like the same fantasy hockey that they’ve had for years.

Seriously? You don’t find AO’s Playgirl centerfold imagery to be a bit odd?  I swear to God, I think he’s licking that hockey stick. smile

(But I’ll admit, I’m pretty immature...)

I agree, he has a “I love you so much” kind of look in his face. He is like sucking the graphite out of his stick.

He looks like he’s smelling it.  Ewww…

I agree - it is a pretty odd pose.

Or maybe he’s narcoleptic and dozing off!  smile
