1980-1981 and 1985 also.

Players are making huge money to play a game. At the time I was busting my ass to keep the nation safe and was earning peanuts.

Hartford Whalers here... (But a Lightning fan since the Whalers were stolen from Connecticut’s hockey fans)

I learned to love high school and college hockey in my years in Minn.

Stopped watching baseball when my attention span “normalized”...generally used sports as a reason to eat some of the fancier snacks...turns out a movie works just as good.

Yes, the MLB ... and what should have been the final weekend of a Premier League season in which Liverpool won their first title in thirty years.

As this goes on, though, I find myself not missing it quite as much as I thought I was going to.
