It's taken me until the conference finals, but please, I've really had enough. If your actually one of the three or four on SEN that proclaim to be 'hockey experts' then don't read on, coz I want to rant about it and I'm just a tad "errghhed" about it.
I was excited when i heard there was an ice hockey hour all those months ago on SEN, so i though id listen in to aid my hockey fix. But boy, didn't it turn into pure comedy value. From the first moment I heard that the Stars were playing well with good form showing from the star players like Ed Belfour, to guys relying purely on cliches because they dont see any hockey at all, or hear any hockey, or look at anything hockey, coz they're too busy watching NBA. Like last night, on "Team America" from 1am to 2am, where one Mark Franklin told us that Michael Peca was one of the Oilers young guns and that Carolina are a team with no star players. If I wasn't half asleep, I'd love to just call in and pull them up on all these, but most the time I tend to not even be tempted to ring up, again coz of comedy value.
Hopefully, in an ideal world, some of our Melbourne based 'ice hockey board posters' can get themselves onto SEN, because the bunch of clowns they are running with right now, well, they're far from experts. If you a serious hockey fan, don't listen to them. If you like a laugh going to sleep on a Friday night, listen in.
