I feel bad for the kid, I really do.

But I have to admit that I've been jaded by the uber hype around the kid and its made me entirely sick of even hearing his name.

I can envision the media coverage over the next few weeks

TSN everytime his name is bought up the female sportscasters who are all wearing black start to cry.

Hockey Night in Canada this week starts with a 2 hour career retrospective on Conner, all the video is in slow motion, and black and white and some of the greatest ballads ever are used as sound tracks. Somehow they get Tom Hanks as the narrator.

In the intermission between games they interview several bone doctors about conner's injury, a teary and useless George Strompolammadingdong, looks tearfully at the camera and sends his heart felt prayers to Conner and his family.

Justin Trudeau orders all Canadian Flags to half mask and all poles must have an Oilers flag Trudeau declares "Conner's injury has ripped the heart out of this country, the Canadian Flag will not rise until Conner is back on the ice."

Later that day Trudeau blames the crashing economy on Conner's injury "Canadians have lost hope" he soberly states as he invites foreign dignitaries to a prayer session to pray for Conner's speedy recovery.

Sometime next week, the Oilers have a press conference to discuss Conner's long term prognosis, the Oilers declare that they are putting a hold on the new buildings construction. "Without Conner there's no point" states a clearly shaken Katz.

CBC starts a video series that's played on each intermission of each game until Conner's return. They title it "The road to hope"

I could go on but I need to vomit.

Get well soon McDavid damnit sun, the world needs healing.
