It’s Trade Deadline Day!

Posted by Mother Pucker on March 3rd, 2010

Trade deadline day in the NHL is here, and this is what you’ll have to look forward to as you watch on TV:

  • Guys on TSN pretending they are getting the inside scoop on their blackberry.
  • Guys on Sportsnet pretending they are getting the inside scoop on their blackberry.
  • Other than Duthie, guys on TSN not paying attention to any of the commentary because they are working their blackberries.
  • Kypreos pretending to have a direct connection to the thought process of every GM in the NHL.
  • Fake trades being announced because the station wants to be the first to break the news.

I’m not going to be watching this year. Last year I parked myself in front of the TV at 7am or something ridiculous like that and what did I see? A whole lot of nothing… pure garbage in fact. Is that why I’m not watching? Not really because the true reason is that I have other commitments that are keeping me away from the TV today, so I’ll just have to catch up on things via twitter or other outlets as the day goes on.

For those of you that are watching, hopefully it isn’t as boring as last year…
