Redneck Heaven

from David Shoalts of the Globe and Mail,

Janssen knew the drill, so he dropped his gloves and turned to face Belak. He was about to pay the price for knocking Toronto Maple Leafs defenceman Tomas Kaberle out of the lineup on March 2 with a late, blindside hit that left Kaberle with a concussion and the Leafs without their best defenceman.
The 19,518 fans at the Air Canada Centre rose as one to revel in the show. This was the moment the mouth breathers were waiting for. It was redneck heaven, as good as macaroni and cheese and a cold Lakeport with the rasslers on the tube. It’s a wonder even the sushi eaters in the platinum seats did not break into a chant of “Git ‘er done.”

From the article:
Unlike that party-pooper Steve Moore, Janssen submitted to his beating. Moore had the temerity to give as good as he got in a fight with Brad May subsequent to his check on Markus Naslund of the Vancouver Canucks.

I could’ve sworn it was Matt Cooke, not Brad May, who fought Steve Moore earlier in that game.  But the piece is written by a Toronto writer and they know everything, so…
