Kerry - SI Interview

[sandnsea]

For a change of pace:

"SI: You play in charity games with ex-NHL players. What's that like?

Kerry: Like you're a kid in heaven. I mean, you come off your shift and your tongue is hanging out and you look over and there's Ray Bourque sitting next to you. Then you look to your other side and there's Phil Esposito. Then you feel a hand on your back and someone says "nice shift," and it's Gordie Howe. Come on. It doesn't get better than that." ~snip

"SI: What did you think of the President's mention of steroids in his State of the Union address?

Kerry: It's a legitimate issue, but I did think it was strange to hear in that speech.

SI: If you were president, would you abolish the DH?

Kerry: Could I actually do that? Oh, I don't know.... I'm not a fan of the DH, but I think we're going to have to live with it."
