What Really Grinds My Gears: 95% of Sports-Realted Facebook Statuses

So I know I haven't been pissed off in a while, but Evan's recent comeback has inspired me to get back on the horse.

Only problem, I'm pretty sure most of these people wouldn't know a puck or basketball if it hit them in the ass. Take for instance the random girl post: Bruuiiinsssssssss ; ) <3333333. Really? Since when do you watch hockey? I'm pretty sure chances are if its Sunday night you're gonna be watching E!'s wonderful line-up of high quality programing (sarcasm Dan) over the game.
