They’re Back….Do we really care?

This just in….Hockey is back

Now the real question.

Does anybody care? How arrogant of the owners and stupid of the players to tank an entire season of a sport that is the LEAST watched (and funded) of all professional sports in the US.

I bet more people watch Texas Hold ‘Em on television than hockey.

I just realized that with this post, Jeremey is going to love me, isn’t he?

    however.

    i am a diehard montreal canadiens fan, so im sure ill be following them once the season starts up. but nevertheless, hockey is still 4th on my “sports i love” list:

    1) basketball
    2) football
    3) baseball
    4) hockey

    the rest of canada is pretty excited, though. all three of our major sports networks switched over to wall-to-wall coverage from 10 am onward today…. im not kidding. osama bin laden could have attacked ottawa today and the country would have paid more attention to hockey.
