“I wish we had a team full of Chris Kunitzes.”
I’ve uttered those words many times to my hockey buddies over the past few years. Right up to the time the peppery winger mysteriously stopped producing last season.
It’s easy to jump off the band wagon, isn’t it? Especially in the City of Champions, where we’re accustomed to (and spoiled by) so much success. Should a team or a sports hero perform below our lofty expectations, we’re quick to become hypercritical. I know I am.
What have you done for me lately?
It’s a shame.
