It's the goofy stuff like this that makes me a sports fan

The Tampa Bay Lightning were goofing around at practice the other day, playing a game called "Naked Shootout", a little deviation from the regular routine to relieve some stress (they've lost their last two games).
The rules of this game are very simple. Everybody takes turns shooting at the goalie and gets to sit down after they score. If you don't score, you have to remove an article of clothing or piece of equipment every time you fail. The object of the game is to simply not be the last one on the ice and certainly not to be naked on the ice. Marty St. Louis, who has been and continues to be one of the very best things to ever happen to sports in Tampa Bay, came very close to losing this game...
