Message: [QUOTE="J187Money, post: 5030322, member: 718"] Playoff hockey is great. Live hockey is great. I just can't get invested in regular season hockey on TV, I used to feel that way about regular season NBA games also - but I think they have done a good job of amping up the matchups / putting the right games on TV at the right time. To me a lot of it comes down to the stakes. Love golf, but not going to watch the Milwaukee Open on TV. Have watched a lot of the NCAA baseball playoffs, but won't watch a game in February (unless it is UCONN). Stopped watching the NBA finals when it was obvious that Dallas didn't have a chance. Will definitely watch game 6 of the NHL finals because it matters. Etc. Other than winning the NC this year - favorite thing I saw was Nico Young of NAU break 13M (12:57.14) in the indoor 5K up in Boston. My son was up there for the meet with his team from YSU (he is a trainer). Seeing someone obliterate a record like that (Blanks from Harvard had just set the record in December at 13:03.78). Then watching Young/Blanks get outkicked by Parker Wolfe (UNC) to win the NCAA outdoor 5K was amazing - was watching in a bar in Cabo. Love watching high levels of competition when it matters- pretty much no matter what sport it is. [/QUOTE]
