Thread: More hockey ignorance by the Worldwide Leader In Sports Not Called Hockey

Half hour!? There's an hour long special about the job bagging groceries the starting quarterback did when he was younger before the superbowl. If a team plane took out an NFL team, not only would it be akin to Princess Diana, there would be a congressional hearing about airline safety and reports from the NTSB going on months after the crash.

1. None of the morons they have on staff could properly pronounce the French and Slavic names they'd have to learn to cover hockey (without making fun of them).
2. They were too busy hiding evidence on the Bernie Fine molestation cases at Syracuse.
3. All their reporters and photographers were at Penn State goading students into overturning vehicles after Paterno was fired (this one has actually been verified by several sources).
4. What else should you expect from a network that, all during the NBA strike, would show highlights from every NBA game that was played on that same date x number of years ago?

You're right. I completely understated.
