I need to rant. So here goes,
I am no hockey player, but this NHL lockout thing for more money is stupid. I wonder if they actually realize all their money is coming from their fans. Sure I may save a lot of money with this lockout but this just takes away all my joy. I can no longer look at Canada and say hockey is our sport because clearly all of our players only care about the money. We fans support them through everything. WE save up just enough money to buy tickets behind the player box. WE hope we will meet our favorite players and get their autographs. Once I met Iginla and got my own personal autograph from him on my jersey. Then I met Todd Bertuzzi in my own communities hockey rink. Turns out his son played hockey with one of my best friends. I got his autograph on a napkin, and I've kept that ever since. Where is he now? He's playing in the USA. Not even in the country where it all started. This lockout is baloney! All they care about is the money and the suppliers, are us. We've been there the whole time. And now they're finally going to realize this when they loose all this money just from one lockout. Actually, we've had 2 lockouts in the past decade. Only seven years apart! And how many players have gone over seas to Europe now? 22 I think it was at this morning. My favorite players by far are the Sedin twins, and they'll probably be gone by tomorrow.
Thanks for listening to my rant. Comment and tell me your thoughts on the NHL Lockout 2012.
