Mr. 'mercanMikeJames, Mr. HatterD is in San Antonio and barely keeps up with the main sporting-attraction down there, the San Antonio Spurs. There is no hockey down there, unless there's a farm team that I'm unaware.
I am in the Northern part of Texas (Dallas) and passively keep up with the Dallas Stars. I can only get excited about hockey when the playoffs come around. That's when the real hockey season begins!
In fact, there was a small thread (in the old forum) going on between CCD and I during the finals as Pittsburgh came back and throttled the 'hated' red-skates!!!
Oops, for some reason I put AmericanMike, and not James, your MB name.
