Also Tennis.
I can't think of any sports we don't have a pretty amazing team or individual players in those sports for.
I admit to not following anything but hockey since I got the ability to stream games, so things may have changed laterly.
My recollection of tennis is this latest guy is the first good player you've had (also isn't he Scottish?) pretty much ever. The Tim whatshisname was the big player when I moved here and so that's my prism.
'Very good' at football and yet 'not close to winning anything' seems an odd combination of descriptions to me.
