Jag vet att ganska många av er kommer sluta läsa nu när det visar sig handla om hockey, men kom igen, det här är sportpoesi och det handlar givetvis om Forsbergs magnifika comeback:
For the last four years, there have been hundreds of Forsbergs at the Pepsi Center. Young, old, male, female, paying homage to their favorite player by donning No. 21 sweaters to Avalanche games. Seeing the real person in the real pro sweater in a real game again always seemed on par with channeling Elvis in a seance. But unlike Elvis, Forsberg never did quite leave the building. Colorado's beloved adopted Swedish son made his return Tuesday to the Avalanche a triumphant one. - Adrian Dater, The Denver Post
Och följande reflektion av Bernie Lincicome i Rocky Mountain News hade precis lika gärna kunnat vara hämtad ur något av Cicero: The great ones have the burden of their own greatness, and if it weighs more than it should at the time it is harder to carry, that comes with the compensation.
Nu lunch med Åsa, Martin & Marie.
