31/365: Traktor Chelyabinsk

Last Friday, a spectacular meteor exploded over Chelyabinsk, Russia. It made worldwide news, and for many proved to be the first time they'd ever heard of the industrial city near the Ural Mountains. No me, though. Back in my days as a newspaper sports reporter, the Chelyabinsk hockey team, "Traktor" (named after the tractor factory in town) toured Texas playing teams in the Western Professional Hockey League. I bought one of their pennants as a souvenir.

So, I have to wonder: Will they change their name to "Meteor" now?
