You might be hard pressed to find someone who feels worse about their
current job today in the whole United States than Gary Bettman. Why?
Well the NHL's All Star Game, which should act like a showcase for the
league, was watched by well, almost no Americans at all. A whopping
474,000 households tuned into Versus last Wednesday for the 12-9 All
Star Game shootout, down 76%% from the 1,985,000 households in 2004.

Well, since Versus sucks in their coverage of hockey, I wonder if they took
into account the people (like myself) who watched it on the CBC.

No fan of Bettman.

I don't have Versus, and I would have liked to have watched
it, but since that was a non-starter, I figured I'd "watch"
it on radio.
So I dialed in WFAN for the game.

According to Jim Rome (I'm came into the discussion midway through so I may have
misunderstood what he was saying), an episode of The Andy Griffith show drew
almost twice the audience as the All-Star game did.
