Bring on the Cup!

I was a bit worried after the Hawks 2-0 lead dropped to 2-1, then 2-2. So far, each team has won on home ice. I could talk about officiating or goaltending or line juggling or players stepping up or whatever. But with Chicago one win away from glory, the Stanley Cup will be in the building. Say what you will about hockey, but almost any other sports fan will agree that the best trophy in all of pro sports is the Stanley Cup. What other sport has a trophy that books have been written about it? Is there a guy that guards and polishes the silver football trophy of the NFL? Can you drink out of any other pro sports trophy? Damn, the Stanley Cup is cool.
