Shut Your Mouth, Randy

I'm referring to the dweeb on the staff of the Los Angeles Times, sports editor Randy Harvey. The reason he should shut up? He declared hockey to be a niche sport not worth the time or money for reporters to cover NHL games.
You know what? It's Canada's sport and there is a multitude of us here north of the 49th who are sooooooo happy that the season opening is just around the corner now. It's anything but niche for us. Whose idea was it to start a team in all those grapefruit towns down south? Not ours. Whose idea was it to send a hockey team to the Olympics from climes south of the true north strong and free? They can't freakin' win against the Canucks anyway.
Why don't Harvey and his ilk just stay home and peel another orange while they sit and watch some muscle-bound footballers bash each other's brains? Mammoths fighting over where they're going to touch a ball to the ground is their national sport.
Leave the hockey to us. Leave the hockey coverage to us. We love the game. It's in the very blood of any true Canadian.
It's anything but niche up here.
