yes, that makes sense, i do believe there is no contraction using 'nt....i may have just imagined it. and to think that all of these years i thought i was making a mistake......
i have another question, about hokey, now i don't really follow the sport , but sometimes i see clips of parts of the game when everything stops, two men are at the centre and the referee just stands on the side whilst they beat the living daylights out of each other. i was so shocked and confused to see that.....what exactly is the purpose of this boxing section of a hockey game? what is the cause and what is the prize for the winner? is there a winner? when do they stop fighting? when one of them knocks out the other one ?
