Tony Kornheiser nails my feelings about the NHL lockout. It can be summed up thusly: so what?
Now in fairness, I am not a big hockey fan. I have nothing against the game, I just don’t have the time in my life for another sport and I have plenty, thank you.
The thing is, we’re quickly finding out that millions and millions of Americans, even many who went to game, feel the same way. Where’ the outrage? I’m sure it’s everpresent in Canada, but down here in the States, no one cares. And why should we? The game expanded too fast and is now eating itself.
The players have jetted off to Europe to play in other leagues. They don’t care.
The owners aren’t scheduling day-after-day meetings to get this resolved. They don’t care.
Why should I care?
