Yep, I can't blame someone for not being interested in hockey, we tend to like the sports we liked growing up, and to much of the country hockey wasn't a thing where they grew up.
I've been told the same thing about Soccer, you love hockey and football how could you not like soccer. Soccer still sucks to me.

Agree completely, it's why I don't watch much basketball. No team in Tampa and I don't need to tell you about Auburn Basketball.I agree. However, any true sports fan should certainly give hockey a chance. I was never a hockey fan growing up. Then when the Preds came to Nashville I started watching and was quickly hooked. Watch a few games with an open mind. If you still don't like it, no harm, no foul.
I do think the thing that's missing for most fans of other sports is the emotional attachment. I love the Preds because they're in my city. But if I still lived in Orlando, would I have ever become a devoted Preds fan or even Lightning fan? Doubtful. If you don't have hockey in your town it takes watching a lot of games to form that emotional attachment and most other sports fans never make it that far.
I really can't understand not liking it if you've been to games. The atmosphere is just so electric. So much fun even if you don't understand the game.
I dont care if people like it or dont but the constant comments about how no one likes it, is what brings out the reactions we saw for a few pages. I am not telling anyone they have to like it or watch it. I love it. That's what I care about.
We should start a thread about giving a **** about various sports and why they are worthy so the 10ish hockey fans can go back to talking about hockey in here.

We could always go back and get angry about Kane. Our thread did not devote enough time to that apparently hahahais there really anything hockey to discuss in august? this seems as good a topic as anything at the moment.
Let's start up the Semin conversation again...is there really anything hockey to discuss in august? this seems as good a topic as anything at the moment.

I vote we talk about the recent hires by the Lightning, how about Brad Lauer as Assistant, or Brian Engblom as color analyst.
No, no one cares?
Have you guys read THP? How is it different than any golf equipment preview thread? "Hate it, it looks horrible" or anything like it? Read Android thread, apple thread, food thread, or any other thread. People are allowed to express their opinions. If every thread has to be "love this" or "if you dont love this, its because you are stupid or dont get it" then its not much for conversation.
Nobody is forced to respond to a post, a comment or an opinion. I dont care for hockey much anymore. I still think I should be allowed to post my thoughts on hockey in the hockey thread. Someone else might not care for chicken wings, but if we have a thread on chicken wings, they can certainly share their thoughts on them.

I second that nomination.I think Brad Lauer is a terrible move, you guys will blame him when you miss the playoffs.
** I have no idea who he is
and a big YES on fantasy hockey, I vote for Jesse as commish, last year's commish, was too present, it was overwhelming
I have to agree with you on live hockey. No dumb music playing during the action. Get the old organ going during breaks. Hearing the crowd anticipate the fast break before it happens. The slight chill in the air of the arena. Love it all!I can understand why people don't like it. I've never played hockey, except for street hockey when I was a kid.
However IMO, hockey is the best sport to watch live. I absolutely love going to baseball games, but hockey games are so much fun to see live. You get to appreciate how fast the game is moving, and the atmosphere is awesome.

You opinion is welcome, but so is mine to not care what you think about hockey. I mean how many different ways and how many different times can we hear you say you dont like hockey in here and in other threads before we (meaning me) stop caring what you think about hockey? That would be like me going into all the food threads you create and saying how much I hate those foods or threads. What's the point? I just choose to stay out of the them or dont post in them. And this is not just directed at you, as a hockey fan forever, the media has said that no one likes hockey and its the least popular of the major sports. Frankly, I love it and have friends that do so why would I care if someone doesnt like it. Not my job to make people like hockey.
Have you guys read THP?
