I've been on vacation for two weeks, listening to syndicated ESPN programming wherever I am while driving. No surprise that it never mentions anything about the lockout...even with two days of "meetings" done today.
NHL = so irrelevant in so many ways now during the lockout. How could early season games even compete with the intriguing MLB playoffs this year.
I wonder if Fox sports radio at least mentions it a few times weekly...
So according to several news outlets, it sounds like the owners have offered a 50/50 revenue split. If it gets accepted, the full 82 games will be saved and the season would start just a few days after Halloween.
Yeah, it's rather interesting. I recall the last lockout getting a lot of press. The tentative plan would see a full schedule played. Despite what I had thought earlier, the season could go on with little or no consequences as the media has not been stoking the flames.
This really sucks. I really really hope they come to an agreement before it's too late. I fear another lockout will ultimately doom the league.
