2-4-6-8 who do we appreciate!

The hockey post-game handshake line might just be the best tradition in all sports. As you say, no small part of it has to be the weird joy that comes from knowing how awful it must feel for the guys in the wrong sweaters.

As an unapologetic Steeler fan (I was born there. Wait, does that count as an apology, or is that just an informatory aside???), it killed me to see Cowher not get the handshake he had given from the losing side sooo many times.

Now all is right with the world. At least until my Boss stops by...
