Ok Mr Bush now that you have been re-elected you now have a renewed respect in the world of finance and international affairs.
I have one request: USE YOUR BLOODY INFUENCE TO READ THE RIOT ACT TO GARY BETTMAN AND THE NHL AND NHLPA TO BRING BACK HOCKEY!!!!! Even though the Eagles are awsome, man cannot live on football alone! I hate basketball! This would make peace with Boston, New England in general, and our Canadian neighbors. I need the Flyers!!! I bleed orange and black!!! You and your brother had a cup more recently that we deprived Flyeres fans!! Please Mr. Bush use your new found influence to end this work action! Return us in the northeast our winter sport. We need Hockey and we need it now!!
Didn't know hockey wasn't be played.
Ain't gonna happen. Check out Division 1 college hockey. It's quite good!
I forget who asked the question "If NHL players can go to Europe and play for a couple hundred thousand dollars, why can`t they play here for a couple million?" BTW the Flyers suck, Bobby Clarke needs to be fired if you want to win a cup in the near future. Wayne Gretzky is the consumate "girlie-man" if he hadn`t been protected for all those years by the likes of Marty McSorely and Kevin Lowe et al he`d have been squashed like a grape on the boards. MARIO LEMIEUX (which means Mario 'the best') IS THE GREATEST PLAYER IN NHL HISTORY. So, I`m from Pittsburgh what of it? Your Eagles are going the way of the Patriots this week too! all in good fun;)
