Gee, I never said that I was part of their actual 'family'. It's all
symbolic, no? Or maybe you just can't understand what I mean since you dont'
have the same feelings that I do, that's fine. And you're right, most of
them have no clue who the hell I am if any. But I do have friends who have
known or know some of the guys on a personal level, so I guess I have a
sense for them as individuals off the ice  (based on what my pal tell me).

Plus I have an extensive background in psychology and I tend to identify
psychologically... which may not always be a good thing :-). So sue me!
