Whats really funny is how much its changed even in recent history.

Back in the day you were lucky to get, what? Maybe a dozen games on TV per season that werent PPV?

If you wanted the highlights you'd have to sit through a half-hour of TSN and maybe get 2-3 minutes on the Flames after being bombarded with Habs and Leafs stuff for 20 minutes or wait until you read the post-game in the paper the next day?

Now its all 82 games for all 32 teams and you can watch the replay or the highlights on your phone whenever you want. Its everywhere! Its inescapable!

I take it less seriously by channeling crippling pessimism.
