Ice hockey is a joke..  ::)

Don't get me wrong. It was great sport back in the day but today it's just fist fights and rink full of steroid pumped morons.

I hate the players and the fans. Like...the fans think hockey players are like he-men (1 in the team might be able to bench 3 plates) and then the players believe it too.  ::) Hockey players are the pussies who have no guts to fight on the streets or in the ring.

  I highly suspect that the three enforcers were all related to mob debts/taking bribes.  As they are by far the players to have in your pocket for gambling, as they are essentially bouncers with skates.

Yeah, and baseball fans, football fans, basketball fans, etc, all think the same thing about the sport they follow. Really no difference  ::) ::)

How many PRO hockey players are there in the world?

                                                 AND

Home many  PRO bodybuilders are there in the world


                                 thus the percentage of death for each sport is???


In short there is no comparison to the pro bodybuilding dead pool to any other professional sport.

Yes you are correct its an EVENT for body worship and high class schmoes not a professional sport.  Therefore the bodybuilding dead pool can not be compared to professional sports and its athletes.
