I associate some sports with a time of day. Baseball is an afternoon game. Football is an afternoon game. Aussie Rules Football is the middle of the
night, and Cricket is on quite late. I
also put Muay Thai kickboxing as a post midnight event. Hockey, however, is a night game. Despite watching the NY Islanders win the
first of their Stanley Cups early one afternoon, I still see these as night
games.
Of course this is a TV thing. Those post midnight sports that I mentioned
are like that because that is when I watch them on TV. If they sports channels weren't some overrun
by poker, then perhaps their would be room in the daytime schedule for some of
these sports. That's another issue for
another day.
Let's get back to hockey.
Maybe it's a Canadian thing. I
always think Hockey Night in Canada ,
not Hockey Afternoon in Canada
I like a beer or two with my hockey games....does that mean
I can start drinking at noon?
