All I want for Christmas, is my two front teeth…..

With the full face guards most players are wearing now and everyone whose first professional contract is signed next year the days of a full set of dentures at 23 will soon be over.

I had a friend who lost his front teeth by running into a football goal post.

Don’t make me tap the “you’re all birds” sign

What hockey puck started that rumor?

Maybe dentists started Halloween for the same reason lol!

What? I didn’t know Pittsburgh was being courted by another location!

I think orthopedists invented pickleball

Beware of the dentists in Treetops. They have exceptionally big bills.

Give blood: play hockey. One of my fave bumper stickers :D

That would be orthopedic surgeons…. or oral surgeons speacializing in implants.

Could be blender manufacturers are backing the proposal, too.

From an old Sports Illustrated article:

“[Bobby] Hull’s normal playing weight is a robust, body-beautiful 195, kept stoked by the steaks he likes to eat (medium rare) and fit from work on his Ontario farm during the off season. But now his wife, Joanne, whips up Hull’s meals in a blender and he sips them through a straw. The recipe? Well, it would not be found on the menu at the Red Carpet.

“A Hull meal, which he calls “brownish ugh,” consists of three-fourths of a pound of ground beef, a cup of half-and-half, a can of barley soup and half a cup of milk. For variety, Mrs. Hull occasionally tosses in a raw egg or two. Hull takes the blender with him on the road, where his teammates get to play chef."

ba dum tss

Went to the fights one night and a hockey game broke out.

Birds don’t have teeth …

Good luck getting a rink in the treetops.

More likely this was started by fifth-grade teachers.
