Hockey game.

So Becky and I went to a Milwaukee Admirals game on Sunday afternoon. They just happened to be playing the Grand Rapid Griffins. Now in all honesty I new the hockey team was from Michigan, but had no clue it was the minor league team of the Detroit Red wings. Well this started off some banter about who's team was better, our town has a real hockey team ,blah, blah, blah. Now since that little debacle last summer where the Brewers lost 2 0f three to the tigers in miller ballpark, the state of Wisconsin has taken the edge. Packers 2, Lions zero. The Admirals also had been schooling the griffins this year 5-0-0-1. I can't even keep up those hockey record stats. However from the looks of it we have taken back the Wisconsin/Michigan thing for the time being. Well see what happens when the Brewers head to Commerica this year. We had great seats up against the glass. Front row just to the left of the penalty box area. I like the seats, but for hockey being up a couple rows lets you see more of the action. The Admirals had this kid who looked 16. He was in the box next to us, and I thought I could probably take him. OK, so maybe not. I give hockey players alot of credit. They have a great skill level when it comes to skating, puck handling, shooting, avoiding checks, and the works. But we had loads of fun. Now it's on to the baseball travel season. Some interesting teams to check out this year.

Sounds fun. We've got a new minor league hockey and basketball stadium but we haven't gone to a game yet. Maybe it's about that time!
