Thus cries the Coyote

All good things must come to an end... Two weeks ago Callan and I watched his Coyotes knock my Predators out of the playoffs.  Then he was excited when I showed him the NHL commercial showing people holding the Stanley Cup over their heads and kissing it.  Well I stayed up until 1am to watch the Coyotes lose and get eliminated from their Stanley Cup quest.

I broke the news to Callan this morning, "Callan, I'm sorry to say but the Coyotes lost to the Kings last night." He frowned.  Then I felt obligated to add, "so that means the Coyotes won't be able to win the Stanley Cup."  At this, Callan's frown grew and he got almost teary eyed.  I felt bad, but asked him what was wrong.

He replied, "I'm sad because you told be the Coyotes won't get to kiss the Stanley Cup."
