[QUOTE=Jordy;4446647]100% agree on all counts.

Especially regarding the draft.

I would also be watching the Rangers game and DVR'ing the draft but unfortunately I have an appointment with a client at 6PM and have to DVR both. :O[/QUOTE]

Ive got loads of issues with this. I coach my kids little league squad tonite (expecting rain fortunately) and probably won't get home til about 8-8:30. The wife is DVRing some other TV shows. And you can't watch other channels while two channels are recording, I'm gonna be outta pocket for a half hour/hour at least.

Recording the Devils game and figuring on bouncing over in between commercials the draft. Or did I record the draft? Such a mess.

[QUOTE=doggin94it;4447142]Sure - but in the context of this discussion, suggesting that the NFL cares about its local share of a particular market and should move the draft to avoid competing with a "niche sport" in a particular region is nuts.

Bottom line, the NFL could not possibly care less that two playoff hockey games are on in the draft's time slot.[/QUOTE]

Obviously the NFL doesnt care. The only thing that effects the NFL scheduling is Government events like Obamas speech at the convention this year.

Ha, I love when my disgust for the common Bostonian is justified.

Thing of beauty watching 'em suffer. Especially with the Sux in last place too. :D

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but the Pro Bowl still gets better TV ratings than the MLB or NBA All-Star games.

Oh that was disgusting, I saw that too.

I still say the NHL playoffs are THE BEST sporting event(s) in the world.
