That's the biggest difference between my view on KC and the Devils. The Devils lose a player, or have a bad season and I am confident Lou will address things. The Chiefs lose and my view is "things ain't getting better."

Well shit. I didn't know but NHL never on TV so I'd watch it if it was.
Oh well am looking forward to watching my favorite NBA team the Kansas Jayhawks Rock Chalk baby.

That doesn’t really fly anymore. Theres other sports networks now that carry the games like NBC Sportsnetwork. Plus if your in a local NHL market a local affiliate will carry the games.

There are a variety of reasons that there hasn't been a lot of talk about the NHL lockout:

FWIW, this is factually untrue. Hockey has experienced pretty steady growth in terms of attendance between the 90's and 2000's. The highest season thus far by attendance was 08-09 with 23m attendees. The higest in the 90s was right around 20m.
In terms of revenues, it's an even bigger difference from what I've heard, but I can't find a good stat on that one. |

I'm shocked at how little run and care it's generated out here, but the reason is pretty clear: both the Nats and the O's made the playoffs, so the Caps bandwagon emptied and nobody cares.
Outside of the Redskins, this place is the biggest bunch of frontrunning poseur fans I've ever seen. I never thought I'd be able to say I'd lived someplace that outdid the Front Range for that. Now I have.

They expanded a bit, but that's not the only reason for the increase. With the exception of a few teams, games aren't typically sold out every time, so the increase is a combination of more games and higher attendance.
Here's the source I found BTW. http://www.hockeycentral.co.uk/nhl/i...ce-Records.php In terms of per-game attendance, it went up from about 16.5k per game in the late 90's to about 17.5k/game in recent years. |

Probably just as sad that there's a thread about a guy named Cabrera trying for the triple crown and I thought it was about horseracing because I haven't watched a baseball game since 94.

If we had a GM half as a good as Lou we would be killing it. His mental attitude alone would make this board go nuts. |
