To be fair, I guess, Bishop also hooked Hedman in the balls. Hockey is hella painful today. What do you do when your team shits the bed on national TV? You quietly finish the bottle of tequila and crawl to bed, that's what. And if you don't think I'm depressed and hungover today, well, I am. Therefore, it's nice to be distracted from coverage of the SCF by news that really matters -- news about the Leafs!
