pitchers and catchers report tomorrow.
Hockey is boring IMO til the playoffs anyway. One of the best sports to watch live though. |

[img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] I personally find basket ball and football pretty boring to watch until the 4th quarter. Just because it's not your thing doesn't mean other's don't like to watch it. Anyway, I'm almost glad they cancelled the season. I don't think I could take the stanley cup winner seriously if they had won it this season. |

Have you ever seen NHL TV ratings? |

Part of the NHL's problem is expanding to cities where no one has a clue what a blue line is. There are no fans there. If you don't have ice rinks in your parks, you shouldn't have hockey in your arena. |

Atlanta has a really good turnout for every home game the Thrashers play. The reason being I think is because Atlanta is where all the New Englanders come when they get sick of it up there. (Seriously. There's like a 3-1 ratio regarding people moving here from other states) |

Attendance figures for 2003-2004
Atlanta is ranked 22. Sure its not at the bottom but they are close. I for one will miss the rest of the season and was hoping to be able to see a few games this year. I can't understand how some people find watching hockey on t.v. is boring but watching baseball is exciting. Of course live hockey is always great but I enjoy watching the games on t.v. as well, and I can never watch a full nine inning game of baseball even during the playoffs. I can understand people have different preferences but to say that baseball is more exciting than hockey just seems crazy to me. |
