I live on the west coast and last year watching the Wings was easy, I just needed to turn on VS. This year I'm starting to worry, Game 1 was on VS but Saturday morning as my other Detroit homies were comming over to watch the game I realized it wasn't on VS's, there was Formula 1 Racing! So I bought the total sports package which gets NHL net. This allowed me to watch FOX SPORTS DETROIT, what a treat to see Mickey Redmond and Ken Daniels (is he growing a playoff beard?)
So...today I have VS and NHLnet and STILL NO WINGS GAME?!! They have Pittsburgh on VS. I'm frankly tired of the Crosby jizzfest. They lost the cup, we won. Put us on national tv. There are a lot of Wings fans in Portland, believe me. There's a particular bar here that Wings fans gather at for the games. My beef is that why can't or how can't the DEFENDING STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS NOT BE TELEVISED? WHO IS TIRED OF THE CROSBY BIAS?
I told my co-worker today they want the "best" player on tv (that's in quotes becuase he's not) but I want the BEST TEAM on TV.
Who else is experiencing these television shenanigans?
