I'll watch hockey over all those other games.

Two professional hockey teams, playing outdoors at Wrigley Field, or a slew of commercials, sprinkled with a dusting of college football.

Look. I get it. More people watch football than hockey. But football is rapidly becoming what baseball has already become. Drawn out. 3 hours and more for a 1 hour game. Commercial after commercial after commercial after commercial after....

Football fans are so rude that I wouldn't take my family to a game. Players are becoming legends in their own minds. Criminal behavior is fast becoming the norm as opposed to the exception. 30 second plays (or less) wrapped around 2 minutes (or more) between plays. Prices that are so high a family of 4 has to save up like their going on vacation.

Honestly, I'm glad that hockey isn't like football. If it was, I wouldn't be so attracted to it.
