End of the series tonight?

Dang, how many darn games do they play in a playoff series in that retard
league? I'm tired of the Dallas Morning News wasting space in the paper
covering covering a sport no one watches and especially a team that people
care even less about. Get it over with already. Network TV wouldn't give that
league of losers a contract and the paper shouldn't cover the lame excuse for
a sport either.

I couldn't agree more. Basketball is the only sport worth having
playoffs. And football too and Baseball. The thing about hockey is
it's greatness. Where you can't be fat, lazy, dim-witted or care only
for yourself. It's hard for peole to identify with perserverance,
disapointment, responsibility. So by all means enjoy your basketball
where it is almost always style over substance....unless the substance
is to be abused.

Actually, sports news is the most watched and looked at stories for news
publishing companies. Also, the Stars have sold out every game. So, they do
have a following. They also had a huge rating when they went 7 periods in
one game.

I think you are just whining to whine though.

That is absurd. Football, Baseball, Hockey, and Basketball all require
athletic skill.

Sometimes. Depends if they are in the playoffs. They usually stop playing
basketball in the playoffs.

Name the network that NHL games are broadcast on? CBS? NBC? Fox? ABC? ESPN?
No. They don't have enough following to interest the major networks in
broadcasting their lame ass games. The only network coverage they get is
during the local news sports update. Pitiful.

Does it matter, these days? Even the NFL does not put Monday Night Football
on public television anymore and they only play 16 games a year per 2 teams.
Even the NBA only gets primetime television on the weekends and in the last
series. Furthermore, most people, now days, have cable.

So your argument is null!
