ZZZZZZZZZZZZ !

SO YOU BOUGHT A COUPLE OF TICKETS TO LASTNIGHT GAME WITH CHICAGO...
THAT SET YOU BACK ABOUT $300 DOLLARS...
DINNER IS $100.00...
25 DOLLARS FOR PARKING...
A FEW BEERS...THAT'S ANOTHER $25...AT LEAST...
THE BABY SITTER IS IN FOR $25...
TOTAL FOR THE NIGHT...$500 DOLLARS...
NOW ASK YOURSELF...
LASTNIGHT DID YOU GET YOUR MONEY'S WORTH???
OF COURSE NOT...SO WHO'S TO BLAME...
WELL IT'S EASY TO BLAME THE CANUCKS...
AFTER ALL THEY DID NOT SHOW UP...
BUT HOW ABOUT THE THE NHL???
WHO IN THE RIGHT MIND WOULD SCHEDULE A GAME WITHIN 24 HOURS AFTER THE TWO TEAMS INVOLVED PLAYED THE NIGHT BEFORE...IN DIFFERENT CITIES...
BUT AS SHAKESPEARE WOULD SAY,...
THE FAULT LIES NOT IN OUR STARS...BUT IN OURSELVES..
THE SCHEDULE WAS RELEASED LAST SUMMER...
HOCKEY FANS IN THIS CITY KNEW THE SITUATION...
THE PEOPLE WHO RUN THE NHL CONTINUE TO TAKE YOUR MONEY FOR GRANTED...
AND AS LONG AS YOU KEEP SHELLING IT OUT...THEY WILL CONTINUE TO TREAT YOU LIKE THE SUCKER...YOU ARE...
WHEN YOU GO TO A RESTAURANT AND ARE SERVED UP A BAD MEAL...
THE FIRST THING YOU DO IS SEND IT BACK...
WHEN YOU BUY A NEW CAR IT COMES WITH A WARRANTY...
EVERY NEW MOVIE THAT COMES OUT...CRITICS THAT TELL YOU WHAT TO EXPECT...
BUT WHEN IT COMES TO PROFESSIONAL SPORTS IT'S...BUYER BEWARE...
THE ANSWER TO THE PROBLEM IS SIMPLE...
IF THE LEAGUES ARE TOO GREEDY TO PUT TOGETHER A SCHEDULE THAT ALLOWS TIRED TEAMS TO PLAY NIGHT AFTER NIGHT...THEN FORGET SEASON'S TICKETS...
DO YOU HOMEWORK...HAND PICK YOUR GAMES...
TRUST ME...IF GM PLACE WAS EMPTY LASTNIGHT...THE LEAGUE WOULD TAKE A SECOND LOOK AT IT'S SCHEDULE...
BUT AS LONG AS YOU ARE WILLING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON GOOD FAITH...
THEN YOU ARE GOING TO CONTINUE TO WAKE UP THE NEXT MORNING WONDERING WHY THE CANUCKS DID NOT AT LEAST...KISS YOU GOODNIGHT...
BECAUSE LASTNIGHT YOU CERTAINLY GOT......(BEEP)
