Poor Deb ... I've been a Caps fan for as long as I can remember, and I converted my husband so I no longer have conversations like this with him. It used to be that I watched hockey and he was off somewhere else doing who-knows-what. Now, we are together on the couch, he understands the rules and can appreciate the game, and we are happily together on the couch at gametime. Ahhhh ... togetherness. :)
