Who says the Dallas Stars don't have a sense of humor?

The Dallas Stars are running a new ad campaign to get people pumped up for the upcoming Stars (NHL) season.

Currently there is a billboard near the American Airlines Center that says...

"The only thing our refs shave is the ice."

Yes, it's an obvious jab at the NBA ref problems.

Apparently, there are more to come according to the news story on DallasNews.com. One will say,

"One game a week? Is the N in NFL for Nancy?"

and the other will say,

"Maybe baseball should stop using the word sacrifice."

Pretty bold but hilarious stuff. For the longest time I always thought the NHL worked harder than most sports except maybe the NFL but they don't get paid like the others because people don't watch it as much on television. WTF is up with that? They say a hit in hockey is like the impact of a car collision at 40mph. What the hell EVER happens to the MLB players...a wild pitch to the shoulder or back? Get over it!

Oh well, hockey season starts in about two weeks. Can't wait although I wish I had an HDTV to see some of the games that are broadcast in HD. Check the Stars' schedule.
