"...ignored by local electronic media .”

Now that sounds familiar! Seems as if the "media" electronic, or otherwise, all around Texas ignores Hockey. That came out in last night's Tailgunners' (Aeros Boosterclub) session with the  'new'  PR Guy.
And this morning I read the quote, used in the title, in a Rampage blog by Tony U.
So what gives? Is Hockey too difficult to follow for the uninitiated, soaked in football and baseball  reporters? Is it perhaps, that the speed of the game is such, that few commentators are able to rapid fire talk the action? Or is it because too few ad minutes can be slotted into this speedy game, which would disrupt the flow of the on ice action?
Hmm, maybe that is IT! Just think how annoyed we all are when  referees call a large number of penalties and/or stops the game to confer, to sip water, to dry their sweaty brows. And let the ads roll or the unrelenting LOUD noise (someone dares to call it MUSIC!) take over and burst eardrums.
Which was another of the comments peppering the beleaguered PR guy.
WHY, WHY must the noise level be retched up to the unbearable?

Let me outta here!

Not forget to mention the repetitive nature of songs of the numerous kiddie choirs, which are usually "undermiked"! Although, after the gadzillionth time of America, the Beautiful, or some such other 'patriotic' song warbled more or less in tune by piping little voices....

well, maybe it IS a good thing they can't be heard, really!

Especially considering how many players aren't that patriotically American :-)!

There IS other music out there these choirs, barbershop quartets, and soloists could perform... even a drum corps (loudly beating- hopefully in tune) would be an amusing alternative, occasionally!?

Ah, well, ours is not to reason WHY!

Just hoping it might get better!
Next Year?!
