See. See. That kinda proves the point.
You meant to do one thing, something dire and irrevesable happened that wasn't your intent....
Anyway, the basic tack of the point was...
Fightings always been a part of the game.
People wouldn't be so upset if there was no serious injury.
People wouldn't have been so upset if it had been a "fair" fight.
And the players are extremely well compensateed and the job is still a lot safer, even with the fighting, than a lot of other peoples jobs.
I suppose the whole game could be made safe if you took away the skates, made the puck and sticks soft, and put all the players on valium so they weren't so intent on winning, but then what would be the point?
