Jeff Z. Klein at the New York Times has a feature on Theo Fleury recalling his time with the Rangers in his book "Playing With Fire"....When Theo Fleury was a Ranger, he said, he would stay out all night drinking, doing cocaine, going “below the streets of New York City” to “party with freaks, transvestites, strippers” or to “hang out with homeless guys around a burn barrel” on the West Side piers.
He substituted Gatorade or his baby boy’s urine for his own in drug tests until, finally, he had to take a break from hockey to enter a substance-abuse program. Much of his time as a Ranger, from 1999 to 2002, he remembers as a “nightmare.”

...i don't know, that sounds like fun to me.
Fleury also takes some shots at Brian Leetch and Mark Messier.

He'll be at the Penn Station Borders tomorrow (Tuesday) at 6pm signing his book. I really want to go and might skip work and other obligations to meet my idol.
