Canada Vs USA Was Amazing!! - Sunday!

Good morning, folks! Why am I out here in this insane snow? I literally had to shovel my way out. My wife probably thinks I’ve lost it, but it’s Sunday, and we’re buried in snow! I’ll share a clip later of how wild it was getting here.

But you know what else was insane? Last night’s Canada vs. USA hockey game! It really highlighted what’s missing in sports these days: good, decent rivalries. This rivalry has always been there, sure, but this was supposed to be a friendly All-Star exhibition. Three fights in the first nine seconds? These guys just set the tone!

The first two periods were unreal. The third period, the U.S. defense just smothered Canada, and the game kind of fell flat. Whatever, there’s a chance they’ll face off again in the finals if we can get past Finland. I’m looking forward to it. This Four Nations Cup might be the greatest thing the NHL has ever done.

Everyone’s saying the NBA needs to copy this, but can they? It’s tough. Maybe a team like Spain could spark something? You tell me what you think. What this Four Nations Cup is missing is Russia. Throw them in, and call it ‘War on Ice’! Maybe that would make light of the current political atmosphere. I don’t know, it was fun.

I’m at a point where I’m not dying for any one team. If the Leafs lose, or the Raptors lose, whatever. I’m not that deeply invested, and I don’t think anyone ought to be, but maybe that’s because there’s no reason to be. My friend says the NBA is lacking because everyone cares about the name on the back of the jersey more than the logo on the front. It’s like, do you have a team, or do you just have a player you like?

We need to bring rivalries back into sports. Soccer’s the only sport that really has that intense fan base animosity. If we had that in hockey again—maybe it exists and I’m just ignorant because I’m not following it daily—but the NBA definitely doesn’t have it at all. Bring it back to the NBA, the NHL, all North American sports. Then we’re chilling! Anyway, it’s freezing. I should probably get inside. Till the next one, y’all have a great day. Peace!

The composition is dominated by sharp, fractured crystalline structures and swirling ethereal mist in an aesthetic of cool blues, crisp whites, and deep greys, reminiscent of a snowstorm and frozen surface. Dynamic, colliding geometric forms in vivid reds and electric blues intersect and clash, symbolizing intense national rivalries. Streaks of light and fragmented patterns suggest rapid motion and impact, without depicting any specific sports equipment or human figures. The overall effect is one of raw power, exhilarating tension, and a chilling atmosphere. Meticulously detailed, non-AI aesthetic, and devoid of any text or literal human anatomy.
