The Brent Sopel Cracker Excuse

My friend Liam smuggly asked me to give him props for sending this information along. I considered ignoring it, but the fact that he has some sort of playoff handlebar moustache supposedly to raise money for Agents of Change. I'm not buying it, it looks like he's ready to play the cop in the Village People. I digress.

Anyway, Liam passed along this tidbit from the The Province reporting on this most ridiculous of injuries: "Brent Sopel is also questionable for tonight's game. He hurt his back trying to pick up a cracker at home. 'It's the truth,' Sopel said. 'For some of you guys who think I was a healthy scratch, you think it's all fun and games but ... being keeled over, I couldn't walk. It wasn't fun.'"

Oh Brent Sopel, will you ever win? I dread the thought of 6PM and Canucks fever this evening already.

Maybe Sopel never should have told anyone that story! It sounds so bloody ridiculous!
I laughed anyways. But I wasn't laughing at Sopel's performance last night. We would have been better off with Fitzpatrick in the lineup.
