From my Flatlander sisters...

Two boys are playing hockey on a frozen pond in Red Deer, Alberta, when
one of the boys is suddenly attacked by a crazed Rottweiler.

Thinking quickly, the other boy takes his hockey stick, shoves it under the
dog's collar, twists it, and breaks the dog's neck, saving his friend.

A reporter is strolling by, sees the incident, and rushes over to interview
the boy.

'Young Flames Fan Saves Friend from Vicious Animal' he starts writing in his
book.

'But I'm not a Flames Fan' the little hero replies.

'Sorry, but as we are in Alberta , I just assumed you were.' says the
reporter and he starts writing again.
'Oilers Fan Rescues Friend From Horrific Attack' he writes in his notebook.

I'm not an Oilers fan either' the little boy says.

'Oh, I assumed that everyone in Alberta was either for the Flames or the
Oilers'.

'What team do you root for?' the reporter asks.

'I am a Maple Leafs fan' the boy replies.

The reporter starts a new page in his notebook and writes:

'Little Bastard from Ontario Kills Beloved Family Pet'

Thats a little unfair dont you think? The boys bravery should have been that he was a Leafs fan with the guts to admit it in the flatlands. I admire the boy...the only thing that would have made that story even better was if the mut was wearing a Canucklehead jersey!

Yeah right. I am sure the boy is nice when everyone is watching. Truth is, being a Leafs fan, he probably tied a chunk of raw meat to his friend when he wasn't looking. He is just angry the Leaf's are not going to the playoffs.
