Anyways, off the Zeppelin for bit. I havent been active with my blog or with commenting on the website, and I'm kinda dissapointed in it. Right as things were starting to become solid, I go out and move in with my girlfriend. Sorry guys, but the sporting world had to pause for like 2 days. But now, here we are! So much still going on in the NFL, MLB playoffs and NHL regular season.
Sporting News Magazine did an article this month on the stars acqusition of Sean Avery. They go into detail about his first trip to Dallas, and his travels to a Childrens Hospital in the area. There was alot of speculation about Sean Avery before this article, but now that most of Dallas has gotten to know him a little better, there seems like there is confusion. Acdcording to the article, Sean Avery is an avid fashion follower, and actually interned with a fashion company during the playoffs last season. This is crazy! He's a hard nosed, in your face kinda hockey player, a guys the sport has been dying for, and also a softy who likes accesories. Sources say that he has already begun to tease players on the Stars for their fashion "fo-pahs", and even took two of the players to a fashion show (Ribeiro and Richards I believe) . I honestly think its insany awesome that a guy who can wave his stick in front of Brodeur's face in the middle of a playoff game has other interests way outside the realm of hockey. I think hockey needs more personalities like his.
Sean Avery was commenting on ESPN today about how the comissioner of the NHL does a terrible job marketing the league. When the reporter asked him if he could do a better job, Avery responded, "Yes, I could single-handedly do a better job at marketing the NHL". I LOVE IT! I love his carisma and his attitude and I think the Stars will shine even brighter with him on the roster!
