Sean Avery Has Been Brainwashed by Aliens from a UFO

Sean Avery has changed enormously since he played for the Dallas Stars and rejoined the New York Rangers.

Does the credit go to the NHL/NHLPA's behavior modification or anger management program?

Have aliens taken over his brain?

With the Dallas Stars, Avery got into trouble over and over again. He fought with fans, conflicted with teammates and verbally abused other players. In the locker room, he was considered a tumor.

Instead of joining in Stars team meetings, he sat in the hall listening to his iPod and texting friends with his Blackberry.

Dallas dumped him after the NHL suspended him for making crude comments on TV before a hockey game on a road trip.

After anger management, he made a return to the NHL with his former team, the New York Rangers, while playing with the Hartford Wolf Pack in the AHL.

The Wolf Pack went on a six-game winning streak with Avery in the lineup and the Rangers ended a long losing skid and turned things around to win three in a row when Avery returned.

They won three out of four games with Avery in the lineup. He got more ice time in every game, got a goal and an assist, set up several other goals, was credited with sparking the Rangers and got promoted from the third line to the Rangers first line.

Although Avery declines interviews, which is highly unusual, and has very few penalties, even though NHL referees are watching him closely, he led the NHL in penalties for two-years in a row.

In his last interview, he said he didn't want to talk about anger management or pinpoint what was responsible for the new Sean Avery.

He said he was a changed man and reporters said he sounded like a diplomat or Deepak Chopra on skates.

That leaves only one explanation: Aliens in a UFO must have abducted Avery and switched his brain with someone who knows how to channel their anger into energy that can be used for positive purposes.

Maybe it was Ned Flanders.

Avery's ancestors come from Avebury in England, where there are more Averys in the phone book than any other name, and Avebury, near Stonehenge, is known for its ancient stone circles, associated with pagan rituals in the past and used by neo-pagans and new agers today.

The area around Avebury is well known for its many crop circles, which UFO watchers believe are evidence of alien contact on the planet Earth. So maybe they were looking for Sean Avery.

The Avebury Circle is one of the largest henges in Britain.

Crop circles are geometric circles impressed in crops and other types of vegetation and sometimes in sand, gravel, earth, ice and snow.

Avebury is in Wiltshire, an area widely recognized as the centre of crop activity in the world.

The crop circles are usually found in fields of standing corn.

Of all the circles recorded in England since the year 2000, most were found within a 15-mile radius of Avebury and the crop formations recorded worldwide, most were discovered in the UK.

The circles range from small to large, to gigantic.

The smallest circle recorded as part of a formation was six inches in diameter and the longest formation nearly a mile long.

The biggest, so far, consisting of 409 circles of various sizes and measuring 787-feet in diameter, was found at Milk Hill in Wiltshire, near Avebury.

Crop circles come in all shapes and sizes. Why is Wiltshire so prone to these mysterious phenomena?

Some have suggested it is because of the county's history of human occupation. Wiltshire is littered with monuments, ancient pathways, burial grounds and stone circles.

Others have suggested that crop circles are merely performance art on a massive scale, while tourists continue to come from faraway in a bid to catch sight of one being made, perhaps by visitors from another planet.
