Another Year, Another Disaster

I got home from Welfare Bankster Field and fired up the Flames in TiVo, only to discover that they decided to switch the game from the pay channel to the obscure cable channel. This was a good thing. All I can say is that 1)it’s good for the league for an exciting team from Chicago to advance, 2)they have a much better chance of knocking out the Canucks that the Flames with all their good defensemen hurt, and 3)at least I’m not a Sharks fan.
Since I’m running out of excuses to post on the subject, I’ll also say that this is interesting. I can of course understand why the Leafs don’t want a second team in the metro area — raking in monopoly profits is easier than building a relevant team. But why the league seems to support them — throwing away gobs of money in the process — is a mystery.
