One of my little kids was wondering why the hockey players spit so much, and why do they take a drink of water just to spit it out, and i honestly have no idea. Any insight??

@alipunk @the_etrain You don't want to consume to much water or you're going to puke. But if you don't stay hydrated you're going to cramp. So it's take some in, spit the rest out type of idea.

Yah, this. And athletes just like to spit for some reason. πŸ˜‚
@mike @alipunk @the_etrain I think it’s just culture and performance. They could simply not squeeze more water out the bottle. Women players don’t do this stuff, and having to use the bench after a bunch of men did so can be gross.
