I'm calling you out, month of February, for being utterly intolerable. Between the useless schmaltz of Valentine's Day and the 50 inches of snow you have delivered unto my city, you've been doing a pretty damned good job of ruining my life. So far you've offered up a lackluster Super Bowl (Who Dat aside) and ended the Washington Capitals winning streak. To top that all off, you've failed to give Vancouver, British Columbia enough snow for this month's Winter Olympics.
So I am begging you please, month of February, to at least carry us sports fans through these next few weeks on the back of a fantastic 2010 Men's Hockey Finals in Vancouver. I want to see the greatest player in the world Alexander Ovechkin fly down the ice and make rubber move with the speed of light. I want to see a scrappy USA team battle their way to the finals. I want to watch the Heatley-Thornton-Marleau line weave around the offensive zone like a pack of bees. Please month of February, don't let us sports fans down.
You are the equivalent to Wednesday, a hump month for us sports fans as we thirst for March Madness and Opening Day of Major League Baseball. So please shepherd us into the promised land with a superb Winter Olympics.
