Now they want to ban road hockey
Cats: Uncategorized|You’d think they’d try a stunt like this in summer, not in the midst of NHL playoffs!
But it’s true.
A bunch of kids were kicked off a quiet suburban street in April for playing road hockey.
In this world of troubled teens, obese kids and too many video games, someone decided to call the cops and complain about the kids playing hockey on the street.
Too much noise probably. Or maybe this person is tired of waiting two or three seconds while the kids move the nets off the street.
Instead of yelling “caaaaaaar!”
They should yell “priiiiiiick!”
There’s more along these lines in my column.

It really is hard to imagine the mean-spiritedness that must have gone into making a call to complain about kids playing road hockey. It just helps to perpetuate the utter dominance of the car in our society.
