If you needed proof that I have given up....look no
further. Today, I changed my cable
channels. I opted to reduce my sports
channels in favour of movies. Even if
they do play hockey this year, I won't be watching it on TV. Actually, I could still watch Hockey Night in
Canada
(but that's an institution) but there is no guarantee that I would.
Last time there was a lockout we were treated to one year of
poker, followed by several years of poker.
As it turns out, it was pretty good to watch. It's popularity is still quite strong, and I
am sure there will be more poker on TV during this lockout.
I generally like it, but I don't love it. The problem is that they tend to over show
some TV poker moments. I think I have
see the one with Daniel Negreanu vs. the loose cannon in pink shirt more than
15 times. That is probably 13 more times
than I needed to see it.
Maybe this time they will find a new sport to showcase. I suggest Australian Rules Football, or
Hurling, or at the very least, bring back the Red Bull Air Race.
As for me, I will do my best to catch up on the movies I
have missed. I'll let you know how it
works out.
