Because hockey is huge in Alabama?
Admittedly, Iāll stop down for a Mavs game as I lived in Dallas many years, but, on the whole I think the NBA has been ruined by terrible officiating, and barely resembles basketball anymore. I just wonāt spend much time worrying about whether the NBA plays or doesnāt play.
OTOH, thereā's just something about playoff hockey I love, even when the excitement is piped through speakers.
This is a common sentiment. Iām not sure I disagree. I still like to watch, especially when considering the caliber of athletes that are playing, especially on my beloved Jazz.
Truth. Even the end of benchers are crazy good. Although, thatās true of any professional ā golf, tennis, baseball, hockey etcā¦ Theyāre at the point of the pyramid in their profession.

NCAAF is probably the most fun to watch for me. I have this bizarre allegiance to professional sports like many, which is really rooted in what pro sports was 20+ years ago. I guess Iām still holding out hope. At the same time, guys like Donovan Mitchell make me want to watch. Iāll need a lot of professional help when he signs with the Nets.
News is reporting most professional sports are suspending play in solidarity over the recent shooting in Wisconsin.
PGA played today so not sure if theyāll suspend play tomorrow.
Nashville Predators made a ton of hockey fans and believe it or not the Midwest moved south and they all play travel hockey.
I was commenting more on how it sounded like he was discounting the protest and the thoughts of those who believe athletes should speak out. Maybe I read it wrong.

I love the NBA. Itās my #1 pro sport. I love college football second. NFL is meh because I am a Raider fan. I love my LOS Angeles Pro teams (I really need a new NFL team) and have stuck with them.
I know. I was being a smartass. Itās what I do.
I usually do but people got BIG MAD about me when I did it.
We all know the Jazz are going to choke this series away. The Nuggets are the better team, and the Jazz really only have Mitchell to rely on.
Awful way to lose the series but that was an amazing end to the game.

Go away Lakers fan.
The Jazz missed having Bogdonavich in the lineup. On the plus side, next season is just several months away.

Lol. I wanted Utah to win though. I think they can beat the Clippers.
@sanchoā¦that was like a train wreck and a dumpster fire had a more mangled, burning version of their collective selves.
I am a Mitchell homer, thatās why. Also, Rudy down low I feel better about against the Clippers.
Came within a basket of knocking off the higher seed. Tough ending but always proud to be a Jazz fan.
Bogie could very possibly been the difference had he been available.
I have an idea for a UJ support group. Considering a 12 step format but open to suggestions. Boardmail me if youāre interested.

Does one of the steps involve punching goats?
