| The Tragically Hip – Heaven Is A Better Place Today Lyrics | 13 years ago |

As a fan of the Hip and hockey, I have to comment though it's been years since anyone else has. Buffalo native here, but residing in Atlanta. Still a Sabres fan but was deeply saddened by this horrific tragedy. I will leave my opinions of Mr. Heatley out of this. Anyhoo...hockeyfangirl wrote: "'If and when you get into that endzone' is obviously a hockey reference." Say what? Sounds like a football reference to me. In fact, it's borrowed from a quote attributed to Bear Bryant, the great coach of Alabama, among others. Seriously, I can't find any agreement on this. Nonetheless, I don't see how it could be a hockey reference. That's a stretch. Though, the Hip are never afraid to make those stretches. Curiouser still is the line: "A toonie to the busker and a husky 'keep it comin' under my breath". I'd give a nickel to find out what the heck that means. |
