Johnny Diamonds 25 Report post Posted May 27, 2009 Yeah, it would be to benefit the Pens surely. If the Wings had swept like the Penguins, they'd already be resting, right? No. Conspiracy! Oh wait, they'd get a whopping one day less rest if they eliminate the Hawks in 5? No. Conspiracy! Oh wait, it might not be good for the NHL product to wait over a week before playing the SCF? No. Conspiracy! It's all because Bettman wants to keep the Wings injured. It was surely his fault the Wings GOT injured, and would be his fault if they are still injured. Yep. So if the SCF starts on this weekend instead of next weekend all the minorities will watch hockey? NO! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Johnny Diamonds 25 Report post Posted May 27, 2009 Kids have such beautiful imaginations. Just playing the card you dealt. People who love hockey will watch the SCF no matter when they start. If Bettman thinks starting the SCF a week earlier to avoid the NBA finals and capture it's minority viewership he's fooling himself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Electrophile 3,554 Report post Posted May 27, 2009 I'm curious, are you saying only minorities watch the NBA? Is that what you mean by "minority viewership"? Because I wasn't aware the NBA wasn't for white people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It has to do with interest in the SCF being toned down in those 6-9 days off when people are only watching basketball in that time and not hockey. This is a business/marketing issue.

Because I wasn't aware the NBA wasn't for white people. I think you are misunderstanding what I am saying, I need to clarify this. I'm white and I follow all of the four major sports. But I find most minorites I know which is quite a bit and in a hockey market could give a s*** about hockey. They do however love the NBA and love NBA superstars. Now when you get outside of a hockey market not only are the minorites even more disinterested in hockey, the whites in those markets are disinterested in hockey as well. So what is the demographic Bettman is trying to attract? The minorities in hockey markets! Because see he already has the white demographic in the hockey markets. The point is is he will not be able to capture the minority demographic ecen in the hockey markets. So he is wasting his time trying to cater to them when they have no interest to begin with!

Breaking news: White people also like basketball! Chances are, if there's 9 days waiting between games, they might just get more interested in basketball than waiting on the SCF to start.

Guest Shoreline Report post Posted May 27, 2009 (edited) aye aye General fudge packer. Hockey fans are not gonna watch regular season baseball over the SCF. But many will turn to playoff basketball and lose interest in hockey having to wait that long. Who said anything about baseball anyways? Just you. And again, it isn't just minorities who watch basketball. Hockey isn't really a solidified sport in the states, especially in the warmer climate areas -- you know, the ones that tend to also have lots of minorities too. Strangely, I find myself talking to Hispanics around here about hockey. I must be mistaken though and they aren't a minority in the United States. Or maybe you're just ******* retarded. Maybe I'll take retarded. Edited May 27, 2009 by Shoreline Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure you run into alot of suprising occurrences over there in that freakshow known as San Fransicko. Where men look like women but are actually men and vice versa.

They don't teach many people from your background much beyond "leftie" thing, which is unsurprisingly why you're making such a clueless rant about minorities. Is this where a bunch of disgruntled old vets try to act like minorities are running the good ol' stars 'n stripes into the ground? Not "ready" for a black president? Not "ready" for gays to marry? Apologies, if you're stuck in a previous century. Clearly this is far worse than any "disorder" you can conjure up. We here revel in being far more enlightened than yourself. Keep it in the family, yo. SF > you. Any time, any day. Please. Envy more. And please, make me laugh with more WAHHMBULANCE about minorities and lefties.

I love baseball. In fact, it was the sport I grew up watching before I got into hockey. I'm a hockey fan and during the regular season I will watch whatever game is on if the Wings aren't playing, but come playoff time....if the Wings get eliminated, I don't watch it anymore.
