The NHL Lockout Thread

[Gene Kiniski]

While I was discussing this with a friend some kid at my school actually had the nerve to start bashing hockey for the 'immature stunts' they are pulling. Pissed me off and after he ended with "I hope they don't get back together, ever, because it would allow more air-time for basketball". Moron.

Personally, if they don't get their thumbs out of their asses I'm going to be pissed. I'm already angry that I won't be seeing my team (Senators) playing any time soon. Sadly, I have a feeling that they will go on too long to regain what they are losing at the moment.

The hard-hitting action begins with highlights, scores and stats, airing daily on the network's sports program "Sweat," premiering October 16 at 3 pm ET (12 noon PT) along with special segments airing during the Screen Savers.

First I can't watch NHL because it's locked out, then I can't watch Virtual NHL because I don't get the channel.

God doesn't want me to watch Hockey.

I had exhibition tickets too.

I havn't been an avid, die hard fan since the loss of Theo Fleury who was my hockey idol, who I met.

Theo is a drunken idiot.

Is that what you strive to be?
