“I love the smell of the ice… And the cold. The sound the puck makes when it’s sliding across the ice or when hits the net for a goal […]. I love the sound of sticks crashing against one another. The sound my skates make when I come to a hard stop. The roar of the crowd. The way I feel when i’m playing. I can do things on this ice that I can’t do anywhere else.”

it really isn’t a matter of ‘other teams would do it too’ no one is naive enough to think that a team in a league that is over 90% white males is going to completely boycott a WH meeting but the timing of it all is what’s fucking me up

in the same 24 hour span, the first mlb player chose to kneel for the national anthem, the president called the guy who started #TakeAKnee a ‘son of a bitch’, and the most nfl players that ever have in one day all sat or didn’t show up for the anthem

and THAT’S the day when you decide to comment on your ‘apolitical’ bullshit? 

also fuck outta here because under this administration there is no ‘apolitical’ if you plead ignorance, you’re pleading your white privilege and you’re taknig a side. 

here’s to hoping at least some of the pens still don’t show up
