Sports thread
EDIT: I changed the poll to something less centered on North American sport.
Some really great matches coming up this weekend in hockey and football/soccer.
The UCL final between two very awesome German clubs is this sat, 25th: BVB vs. FCB.
The NHL playoffs and MLS matches are also going on right now. I always root for the New England Revs, but alas.
So, what are you watching? Your teams?
Also, post about any match news or whatever cool sports-related topic.
I recently came across this Japanese card game, which is also played competitively, Karuta. The objective is to steal cards from the opponent when you hear the poem being read.
Here's a video of it being played:
