It's just that the blowhards in the mainstream media are either too lazy to cover hockey or they don't like it.<BR/><BR/>And as far as the March Madness goes, it is only vaguely about basketball. It is mostly about filling out brackets, throwing down a few cocktails, and playing hooky from work/school. A lot of people don't know who or what they are watching.<BR/><BR/>The Wild are having a good season. Certainly better than the dog-butt, no account basketball franchise across the river. The media won't be allowed to ignore them forever.stiffnoreply@blogger.com
