MarcO Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 http://www.canada.com/sports/hockey/story.html?id=1057ABE5-2C74-49E0-A964-FECCF86331BF Even as the worlds most casual hockey fan, I find this is disappointing. What's Winter without hockey? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 I am unbelievably happy about this... I know I'm the huge minority on this one (possibly the only person I know), but I can't fu©king stand hockey. I hope the strike lasts for years... What's winter without hockey? Being able to talk to people about something other than hockey all winter long, that's what... I mean, there's still OHL, etc. if you're truly a hockey fan, right? It's not like you can't watch a game if you wanted to... It just means my TV won't be highjacked for the next 8 months, watching an unbelievably long season, with players that are FAR TOO overpaid... fu©k hockey! (Begin the bashing...)

AD Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 I'm not gonna bash you, just gonna give you a thumbs down... I love hockey and am sad that they couldn't compromise and get a deal done. I agree with both side's positions too... Sure the players are overpaid by our standards, and of course the owners would like to make more and lose less... Too bad no-one consulted the people who pay the bills for both sides of the issue, the fans... Gonna have to do something else this winter to amuse myself.. ad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunshine Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 Velvet - get you skates sharpened and join us on the canal..... It's sad that there won't be any hockey. Last night was well spent on Rubberdinghy's porch with the TV watching hockey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slammer Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 I prefer basketball anyways...more of a musical game IMO...(some will say there is a very strong parallel with B ball and jazz music) ...especially now that Pistons have proven it's an actual team sport...so happy to see them win in the way they did...no stars just constellations...Hockey embarasses me...so much cheating and gooning...and the refereeing is abysmal...go Raptors...trade Vince!!...

AD Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 and i've never seen anyone in the NBA travel, charge, dive, fight, swing at fans, etc... there's a reason the NBA guys lost at the olympics... when there's referees that enforce the rules the NBA guys can't do anything... ad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Douglas Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 I'll miss the hockey song, but not the hockey games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms.Huxtable Posted September 16, 2004 Report Share Posted September 16, 2004 Does this mean we might actually get to see Booche this winter? I wonder what sort of things he'll talk about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
