sincerety
Someone mentioned here that hockey is (undisputedly) the number one sport here in Finland, that... is actually not true,
most of the Finns actually don't follow much of hockey, they only support the national team and watch only the Worlds.
For example, in my home town, which is football (soccer) and basketball city, people here don't follow much of hockey at all
we do have a hockey team but,,.. yeah that team sucks.
We just don't have the culture, but in football and basketball... tons.
Our basketball team is legendary (in Finland) and our football history,
is very well known and respected but the glory days.... are way in the past.
- we do have our own home town boy, who happens to be a hot topic in football
(hopefully more so after the upcoming premier league season)
| but... when ever we do great at the international sport stage, what ever the sport, we go crazy
and where ever Finland is mentioned,internationally, its a huge thing here. |
