I think it captures the preposterousness of the sport pretty well.
For the record:
1) we don't play 3 times a week, nor do we ever "practice".
2) we don't really play much in the winter. i, for one, have to prioritize pond hockey first, especially given our waning winters.
3) As Jill just pointed out, Ben does a lot more other than truing wheels with his forehead for the "sheer theatrical pleasure of it"--though I think he actually feels that his forehead method is superior.
