The Best and Worst of USA Hockey’s Brotherhood, All at Once For just a few hours, Americans were able to enjoy double hockey gold. Then politics came crashing through the men’s locker room door.

Hockey culture is frustrating, maddening and has parts of it that are so just fuckin' beautiful that it makes you want to fix all the bad stuff. Its really interesting seeing that intersect with a lot of new viewers coming from a fandom space. But thank god for this piece:

They raided the jailed children to steal their letters.

The problem, in federal officials' minds, wasn't confining children in prison-camp conditions; it was that the children could tell the public about it.
