i'm a huge Yankee fan; but i can't go home & watch all 162 games every single night.
but i can watch Football game after Football game just because it's a once a week thing.

Im saying the reason it garners so much ratings is because their are so few games actually being played that every single one is important.Baseball,hockey,basektball have so many games played that not everyone means as much.When you lay 162 games a year its hard to garner huge ratings for every single game being played.The nfl is different,evry game is extrememly important.If the nfl teams played evrey second day and 82 games a season it would not have the same ratings.

I mean it's the biggest sport all around for more American sports fans. More kids are playing football, more towns are watching local football, more universities are built around football, so what do you think the biggest professional sport would be? It cannot be that many more games because of the way the game is, but if every other sport went down to 16 games a season and one game playoffs the NFL would still crush them in the ratings. Football is a bigger part of the every day American life than any of the other sports, maybe combined.

Remember when FOX has the rights.. Showed hella games, marketed the shit outta it.. The robots... The glowing pucks... The crazy lame commercials with NHL players.. Those were the days?
I live near Van, but my team is Philly. The streams on the internet are God's gift really. I hope the Olympics and this game in particular have turned on some ppl that weren't interested before. Go check the NHL thread where I'ma start posting streams for all the games on Game Day. Helps alot if you live in America or are in Canada and follow that a team that's not in your region.
One thing that turns me off of regional Vancouver games in general, is they play the same teams. I understand the schedule goes hard on the teams and they wanna have as minimal travel as possible, and they want rivalries to build up by facing divisional opponents more. But goddamn if I don't want to watch those games cuz you know what to expect in the game already. Canucks play Ovie and Caps what, every four years, and Crosby and the Pens every other year... What kinda shit is that...
