These pictures are a few days old but I just came across them today.
Jimmie Johnson played a little one-on-one at Dr. Pepper StarCenter in Frisco, Texas with Dallas Stars center Mike Modano, who just happens to be my second favorite hockey player of all time, second only to Paul Kariya.
I have just one question. Why is Jimmie wearing a helmet and Mike isn’t?
Perhaps he’s being extra pre-cautious since that whole golf cart incident. We’d hate for Jimmie to lose a shot at the Chase and a three-peat because he fell while trying to play hockey and broke his head open.
I also think they should have given him all the proper equipment and not just a sweater so Modano didn’t look three times his size.
Maybe they were just bad camera moments, but Jimmie doesn’t look too excited to be there.
I got a laugh from the locker room scene too. It reminded me of Ben Stiller looking at the speedo he was about to put on in “Meet the Parents.” :)
