NHL Season - Toronto Golf Nuts

Do you really care if they play this year or not?

Jaydog · Feb 19, 2005, 08:33 AM

personally, i think the season should be scrapped. however, if it does by some miracle get played, maybe the proposed changes to the game can be test run. at least some good will come out of a horribly contracted season.

Nope, I am a bandwagonner fan (yes, I'm not afraid to admit it) so I don't care either way....the only thing that really annoys me is the way each of the sides have handled themselves during this labour dispute, it's downright childish.

What most people havent considered is those hacks had the ENTIRE SUMMER last year to get it together.

They have taken a great game, and turned it to crap. Let's teach those greedy buggers (players and owners alike) a lesson, support your local golf team, support your local lacrosse team, hell.... support the local lawn bowling team. Make those %#%# EARN your $ back, dont just give it to them once they've decided it's okay to take it, after holding us all hostage.

screw em', it's been a great winter without them. we already compete with the leafs for tee times in May, this year will be like the rest.

I love hockey but right now I'm pretty disgusted by the NHL lockout. I have given up the hockey season already so that I can focus on my golf season.

hockey is over for the season and I wish everyone would accept it. I mean how many more analyst can I take going over every scenario that all lead to the same result. No Hockey.
Thank god, finally a year where I can watch highlights and not have to wait til the end to see the basketball scores.

I couldn't agree with you more. Too bad TSN and RSN think their hockey analysts are all of a sudden labour dispute specialists and economic professors. They'll do anything to avoid talking about other sports first.

Nope...couldn't care less!

I like the way professional golf pays its players better than any other sport.
>Theres no way to ride the teams success while your hurt.
>If you play poorly, it costs you money to be there. (entry fees, caddy, accomodations, meals, travel expenses, etc)
>If you play great, you get all the benefits.
>Theres really no way you could ever be dumb enough to think you could go on strike.

And yeh...I think the players and the owners are dumb!

TSN should have been called The Hockey Network

I hate when TSN covers golf, they break like every half hour to talk about hockey...

Yeah im sick of all the Coverage the NHL is getting..i mean im a hockey fan and all but whats there to talk about really? Season is done and unless they agree on something actually happens. The Hockey Panels they have and even all the radio coverage is just overkill.
