Today, you are a member of… It’s the song, stupid
There’s nothing sweeter, members, than putting bull-headed authority in its place. ‘Well-intentioned’ or ‘perfectly reasonable’ or ‘the voice of the people’ authority without awareness of the larger ice rink deserves nothing less than your best, most finessed backcheck, boarding or body check. And yet, sometimes it’s best to forego the above-board violence and head deke instead. Either way this week which boasts the 33rd anniversary of the release of Nancy Dowd’s Slap Shot is is chock full of tirades, diatribes and manifestos that just don’t get where it’s at. Have at it and at them.
