I’m going to hit the “more” tag, since this is off topic in all regards.

I really want to talk about the NHL all-star game. I know, no one really gives a crap; I won’t watch it either. The only reason it’s news this year is Rory Fitzpatrick. The NHL decided that it could try to make more money by having a fan all-star game voting promotion in which fans could vote as many times as they wanted (read: web traffic for sponsors). So, some guy on the Something Awful Forums came up with the idea of voting a nondescript defenseman named Rory Fitzpatrick into the all-star game. Rory narrowly lost the vote, and hockey pundits (like Gretzky) treated poor Rory like dirt for it. Screw them. Note to NHL: bring back fighting and stop whining so much.
