Imagine How They Feel

from Stephen Brunt of the Globe and Mail,

Imagine how the good people of Nashville must be feeling about hockey this morning.

The diehards heartbroken because they have once again been played for suckers.

The politicians relieved that, thanks to Del Biaggio’s financial implosion, they may have just dodged an extremely expensive bullet.

The local investors wondering where they can possibly find the money to operate without losing their shirts in a league in which — thanks to rising revenues elsewhere, especially in Canada, but certainly not in Nashville — spending even to the salary floor becomes ever harder to justify.

Everyone else, wildly cynical about the whole enterprise, and amazed that a “major league” sport could ever do business like this.
