If it really is the most precious of holidays to you, it shouldn't really matter what big business "does" to it. For those religiously inclined, it is a religious holiday. For the rest of us, it has no religious significance, obviously. I don't see why it is sad. My indifference shouldn't affect how you view Christmas.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
