Breaktime! Everyone To The Water Cooler!

Yay, everyone gets a week off in observance of the annual ~~train wreck~~ high-school popularity contest that is the All-Star Game–and in honour of the event Versus has put together this nice little video for us.

I really shouldn’t watch because I think that letting the fans vote is a complete crock, and I’ll undoubtedly bitch about the beer-league level of play come Monday, but I’ll watch anyway because by Sunday at 6 I’ll be so hockey-starved that I’ll even watch boring-ass no-check women’s hockey on Oxygen (Memo to the IIHF: We’re not made of porcelain, it’s OK to let us hit each other).

Well that and I want to see if anyone will finally beat Al Iafrate’s slapshot record on Saturday night. Cos that’ll be cool, even if the puck will have to be moving so fast that it’ll be well on its way out of our galaxy by the end of the night after having created its own gravity well and sucking all of the Atlanta metro area into a singularity.

So it’ll be cool right up until the world ends about five minutes later and the solar system becomes a feeder for a black hole. Which in itself would be kinda cool.

Just sayin’.
