    so close. That would have been awesome


    But I thought nothing Dwight said was true, so this probably isn't either....right?

    I've never followed hockey. But I probably would if PDX had a team.

    NHL is the only other major sport I'd like to see in Portland. Years ago there was talk about the Penguins.

    Attendance figures per game are on par with the NBA (~15,000-17,000); half the number of games per year reduce the totals.

    I'll bet CSN would also love to see the NHL. They need programming, bad!

    So Allen was going to buy the Coyotes so that he could then move both teams to Seattle?

    The RG was built with hockey in mind...... We almost landed the penguins when he was building it.

    McDonald's has sold the most hamburgers, doesn't mean it's good.

    MLS = AA baseball in the grand scheme of things.

    Comparing a sport to fast food was a terrible analogy. Don't get all bent because the entire world thinks soccer is better than any other sport. Just a fact.

    Btw I hate watching soccer
