Science vs. Ice Hockey

Compare and contrast. Post your observations here.

LOL!

Okay. In science, you beat at something (using experiments) until it makes sense. In Hockey, you beat at something until you score a point.

OMGzors!! They're the same thing!

[umop ap!sdn]

Are subjective comparisons okay? :D

Personally, I find science to be a fascinating subject and have devoted quite a bit of time to studying it (informally). Ice hockey, on the other hand, is a subject I know beans about and wouldn't have the interest to sit through a game.

Sounds like me and any sport. Even fencing (I find doing a lot more interesting than seeing).

I think the prophet Muhammed would make a good centre. Jesus and Zoroaster would be forwards, while the Buddha is clearly goalie material. The Dalai Llama would be a defenseman. Any way you stack it that's one hell of a hockey team. Now all they need is a name. How about "The Holy Rollers?"

while the Buddha is clearly goalie material.

I nominate Shri Maha Kali Mata Ki Jai for goalie.

Yeah, but who would be on the Scientist side?

I've heard of fantasy sports teams/leagues, but never really saw one in (virtual) action. Are they always this silly?

[The Beer Slayer]

Yeah, but who would be on the Scientist side?

Linus Pauling and Einstein as defensemen.

Charles Darwin plays center, with Max Plank and Thomas Kuhn on left and right.

Now to think of a team name...

Oh, one more thing: Stephen Hawking as goalie. Just remove his brain and implant it in a Japanese war robot, or maybe an android.

I think I like ya, Redneck. Even if you're a Redneck.

I'd call them, "The Mad Scientists" or somethin' like that. Maybe something less cliche... hmm...

I think the only possible choice for goal judge would be Schroedinger.

I think you would be remiss if you left out Archimedes. IIRC, he was a bruiser.

'Yes, Brain! But where would we fit a death ray??'
"No, you fool!"
