a love letter to tony amonte

dearest tony:

i know i've been outrageously hard on both you and your bestie, jim, these last few weeks --but i hope you know it's my version of "tough love." i also hope you know that when i asked my friend darren, during your game against the avs, "is it wrong for me to kinda want amonte to get a puck in the face ?" i didn't ACTUALLY want you to get a puck in the face... and when i saw the highlights this morning of the stars game, i felt a lot of guilt. dude, that must've hurt... and you're pretty tough to forego stitches in order to get back to your regular shift...

i wanted to let you know that my new spin (since i, apparently, have the ability to make things happen) is that i now kinda want you to get a couple of goals on saturday against those pesky boys in xmas colours. and if not a couple of goals, then a couple of assists. and if not a couple of assists, then a couple of big hits or annoying moves that draw some penalties. or at the very least an even +/- rating...

tony, i have decided to love and support you for the rest of 06/07, even though we all know that realistically it'll only be a few more weeks... but then i'll support you in your quest for a hole-in-one...

sincerely,
walkinvisible
