I think there should be a limit to how many items can be thrown on the ice
during the game before a penalty is incurred, but to ban such a specific
item?  Seems a bit biased.  Let us know when gophers become an endangered
species.  Maybe then those who throw them out on the ice will think twice.
Is there something wrong with having a little school spirit?
