from John Buccigross of ESPN,
...I need to address my disease, be up-front and confess to you, my people.
I have to turn the page and stop rooting for the Tampa Bay Lightning to lose.
Because, since they fired Barry Melrose on Nov. 14, that’s what I’ve been doing. And, as regular readers of this column know, I profess to be an NHL atheist. I love all 30 teams equally and despise none of them. I’ve violated that covenant since the Mullet was shorn of his Bolts coaching duties, and it’s time to put it all behind me, ‘cause life goes on.
I must say my rooting for Tampa Bay to lose because the team fired my friend has been wildly successful. The Lightning were 5-7-4 when they fired Melrose after 16 games. Since Barry was fired, they have one win in 11 games.
