person who hates change becomes sports fan. 100 found dead

“Not everything works out the way Crosby wants, but he seems to give considerable thought to what he says and does. “At some point, how you act is just who you are,” he said. “I may not always have the most exciting answers, but that’s who I am. I can’t change that.” “Win or lose, Sid has to face the music all of the time,” Penguins teammate Pascal Dupuis said. “Half of us, if we lose, we get undressed, and try to get out of there as soon as possible. But Sid stays and answers the question.” Crosby can’t go anywhere in Canada or Pittsburgh without being instantly recognized. Dupuis says Crosby has to take to the back alleys in Canada to enter a restaurant without creating a commotion. “He gets interrupted four or five times, every course,” Dupuis said. “We can see why everybody loves him because he treats everyone with respect.” Even with that, Crosby has managed to maintain some level of privacy. The main reason: He’s not a true man about town. I’m probably not going to a movie at 7 p.m. on a Friday night,” he said, laughing. “But even if I didn’t play hockey — let’s say I was a firefighter — I wouldn’t probably go to at 7 o’clock show on a Friday. If I’m going to a movie, it’s going to be in the afternoon, on a Monday, when it is a little quieter.” He offers another example. “When it comes to Christmas shopping,” he said, “I don’t like being in a mall after Dec. 10, whether I play hockey or do something else. That’s just who I am.””
