You never want to fall into the "Avs announcer's trap" and be all rah-rah-rah.<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://jibblescribbits.blogspot.com/2007/05/silence-is-golden.html" REL="nofollow"> As I have said before</A> I don't think the time for criticism is now. There is plenty of time in the offseason to discuss the state of the game, and what rules need to be fixed and what rules are okay. <BR/><BR/>During the Stanley cup playoffs is NOT the appropriate time to be handing out minor criticisms. It IS the time for player profiles, game analysis and series analysis. A brief criticism is okay if it directly relates to the games itself (a paragraph on better replay equipment idon't mind. Talking about the replay that it takes away from a fantastic game is excessive).<BR/><BR/>There are valid criticisms of the league, and valid points to make. Write them down, and save them for the off-season.Jibblescribbitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17833352311064492403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-985129088038872299.post-45789114878412511552007-05-08T14:41:00.001-04:002007-05-08T14:41:00.001-04:00There should be a question mark at the end of the ...There should be a question mark at the end of the first paragraph in my comment above, by the way.Dear Lord Stanleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10000974760956373639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-985129088038872299.post-70947661857983705922007-05-08T14:41:00.000-04:002007-05-08T14:41:00.000-04:00Would it kill them to do a player or team profile ...Would it kill them to do a player or team profile once in a while, or an inspiring story about how a hockey player helps crippled children or even an off-season golf rivalry between one star player and another.<BR/><BR/>Hell, even some decent playoff series coverage would help. Focus on the games, focus on the players, don't focus on the sport itself.<BR/><BR/>Criticism is sometimes needed, and it never hurts to stay objective about the health (or sickness) of the league. But constant calls to change the way hockey is played just don't do anyone any favors.Dear Lord Stanleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10000974760956373639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-985129088038872299.post-17977140795884121562007-05-08T14:24:00.000-04:002007-05-08T14:24:00.000-04:00That's why he gets paid to write about sports, and...That's why he gets paid to write about sports, and we just do it for fun.<BR/><BR/>It's nice to see a professional writer actually write something resembling positive press on the sport.
