Official Size Net What are the official dimensions for a hockey net and the sizing for the mesh?
The dimensions are 6 feet wide and 4 feet high.
the mesh at the top of the net strecthes back 20" and at the bottom from the goal line to the back of the net is usually 44" so there is a downward slope from the top of the net to the bottom
In international hockey, the sizing of the mesh may be different, but this is the standard for the NHL
Pingpong Paddles What pingpong stuff should i buy my oniichan for his birthday?
My oniichan's birthday is today (oniichan/oniisan is older brother in japanese. But he's not really my brother, he started off as my senpai (senior) but we became closer so he became my older brother). I really want to surprise him so I don't want to ask him what he wants. He is in to ping pong if it helps.. idk what kind of paddles or whatever he already has since i do not play ping pong. Pls help!!!!!
Go to a sports store and ask a sales person (one who knows). about paddles.Get him a top line paddle.You may want to go on line and get a good idea about paddles before you buy one.
Just got a decent racket, but I'm too cheap to buy a case. How should I store and transport the paddle to avoid damage?
when i first started out i used a sporty shirt cuz it seemed like the material that was n the cases. when you transport it try no to put pressure on the racket or scratch/ get the rubber dirty. i wash my paddle with a towel and water, but most people dont do that because it is better to by special cleaning foam.
Case Killer Spin Why would someone think like this and where did he get this idea?
I'm a Republican and my friend says I'm an animal hater and tree killer. I asked him why he said this and he replied that since most Republican talk show hosts hate tree huggers (which they don't, only the way they express their veiws) that all Repubilcans must be like this. Then he threw something I said into the Liberal spin machine and it came out as 'If someone calls himself by one name and has a certain belief, then all who call themselves by this name follow the said belief.' So he put this together saying that if Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannidy, Jim Quinn and Glenn Beck call themselves Republicans and hate quote-unquote 'greenweenies' and I call myself a Republican, than I must hate 'greenweenies' as well. How much sense does this make? Has anyone else heard of a similar case in the Liberal media?
It's the unfortunate stupidity of stereotypes.Just like we assume all Muslims are terrorists and all blondes dumb etc..... too bad.Ignore him it's ignorance.
