Something I Noticed A Ways Back....



...... thought I would share it.
Take a peek at the the character's names during this episode of Law & Order.
Semenko, Lindros, Anderson, Goring, etc.
I remember seeing this episode once upon a time when A & E would show the program every day for what seemed about twelve times a day.
That particular episode was co-written (I discovered after doing some research on the interweb) by Canadian writer, lawyer and brother of two rabbis (as I found during that research)David Shore.

Shore moved on to help create what is probably the number one TV show in Casa Del Dave and Heather - House (or House, M.D. as it was originally titled). Dr. House is one of my favourite characters on TV and, as the Wiki-reference suggests, is also a hockey fan, as he whined about the fact that the Flyers suck.
House should adopt the Oilers as a favourite team.
Maybe he could figure out what is slowly killing their playoff chances.

Great work, David Shore. Hockey fans are just better and smarter, aren't they?

Look to Seinfeld for an opinion on the Oilers: Prognosis Negative.

If Hugh Laurie says the Flyers suck - it must be true. Though if he were an Oilers fan... Gosh he already has to fight off enough women already.

Yeah, but Timmy Lupus saved the Bears asses in the top of the 7th inning.

Flipping through the channels the other day I saw an old Law and Order ep with the detectives standing outside the law offices of 'Gump & Worsley'. Hockey names are just so cool.
