Boo! Boo! Hiss!, Double Raspberry on top. I’ve forwarded your comment to the House UnAmerican Activities Committee. Talk like that needs to be investigated.
The NHL sold a little more of their soul with that deal. It’s impacted the scheduling of games they need to fill a time slot. Their announcing crews, save one, are pathetic. The studio crews started poorly, but have improved. Games are now also shown on TNT, ESPN and the NHL channel. I don’t know what the access of those channels to streamers is. The worst thing is that there are 7-10 games per team per season that are shown exclusively on ESPN+ or one of those affiliated channels. Even the local broadcasts are blacked out for those games.
I subscribe to NHL Center Ice, which carries all the games except for those on one of the ESPN affiliated stations, and most are shown with each local broadcast.
I get it, but since the Fox Sports regional was bought out by Bally, I couldn’t get the Blues or the Royals.
At least now I can get the Blues.
The Royals quit focusing on baseball and the fans and are 100% focused on how to screw taxpayers to pay for a new stadium.
Nah…its just different. Its the only sport that the defense has the ball. My older son grew up playing high-level travel baseball. I really miss those days…lots of fun watching kids compete.
His last season was 5 years ago. I do not miss the cost…which was about $4-5k annually. It has become a lot bigger in the last 10 years as more money has entered the game. There are a lot of really good kids at younger ages and MLB is in great shape for the foreseeable future.
