The Season was Cancelled? No One Cared...

As a former OS/2 user and a casual hockey fan, I found this cartoon to be really funny. Around these parts, once the hockey season was cancelled, people shrugged, said "so what" and then kept watching the Bucks and the Packers. Not really a big sport around these parts, but I'm glad it will likely be there this winter. It helps fill the void between the World Series and the start of spring training... That, and I really don't like to watch Poker, which is what ESPN evidently decided to replace the NHL with last year.

Thanks for the link -- that is funny - and probably true stateside.

Yeah, I would imagine the reaction was a bit more vocal north of the boarder...

Funny thing is they guy who draws the cartoon is Canadian, so evidently the reaction wasn't real strong in his circles, either (or he was drawing that specifically for a US audience...)
