Who Commends You?

It’s hockey season again. This is often a painful time for Canadians, especially those who live in Montreal and Toronto. Our teams, the Canadien and the Maple Leafs, use to dominate the sport in the mid 20th century. Now they lose more often than they win. There is a joke about a man in Toronto who had a special request in his last will and testament. He wanted six Maple Leaf players to be the pall bearers at his funeral so that, in his words, they could “let me down one last time.”
