Bullying acceptable on the ice?

Editor:

I hear a lot about bullying in schools. If anybody gets kicked out of school for bullying I have news for them.

Get into hockey, in hockey bullying is called intimidating and is much admired and you can go far. If you are good at it you will soon be in junior hockey. Now by intimidating with bad hits and fighting you can collect two hours or more in penalty minutes.

Now you could be drafted by an NHL team. Now you would be an enforcer and you would do smash hit on your opponent's top scorer and pound on other enforcers.

For this you will receive a salary of a million dollars or more and the admiration of Canadian (idiot) icon Don Cherry.

Bullying can pay off.
