Sorry, but as a lifelong fan AND player, I say a pox on both their houses. In these times when many Americans are feeling economic hardships, these spoiled millionaires have proven once again out out of touch with their fan base they are. I'm only sorry that their first game back wasn't played in front of an arena full of empty seats. I'll stick with the excellent junior hockey that's sustained me over the last couple of months. The hell with 'em!
I've said it before and I will say it again: as long and the fans come, the players and owners will continue to act this way. there is no one to blame bout ourselves. but I must say that arena did not look too full to me.
I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty-five years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 13 to 33 years and nine grandchildren. Four of our children are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004.
