Well, that's not completely true of course, and one could argue that the
king of boring is..... soccer. I mean, seriously. The actual *goals*
are semi-exciting, but the interminable minutes (hours?) between goals
are the very definition of boring.
WD> Canada's better at ice hockey ...
Here you are CLEARLY mistaken. It's been 29 *YEARS* since a Canadian
team won the Stanley Cup.
