So by your math the NBA has a season 14 days shorter than the NHL but starts a month after. NHL spreads their season out, tougher game longer season....
Season, also, doesn't usually go until June 24th...usually ends before the NBA, but the lockout threw this year for a loop.

I'm not complaining. Just saying they have the shortest offseason.

I have gotta learn to be careful around hockey diehards.... They defend that sport to death. Admirable but slightly annoying. But hey, I like the sport.

We defend it do the death because it gets crapped on...it gets crapped on mainly by people who dont understand it...
People fear what they do not understand...

Well, we live in a country that doesn't like soccer... Which turns out to be the most celebrated sport in the rest of the world pretty much.

Very true...the other day, soccer was on ESPN, ESPN2 and ESPNU all at the same time during the afternoon. Watching people explode on twitter was priceless because of it.

I guess the USA is more of a hands sport type of place. If you primarily kick or use a hockey stick... Then it is stupid.
