Message: [QUOTE="BuffOrange, post: 4797211, member: 1643"] It's always such a who cares topic to me. Hockey has had many dream market finals in recent years: LA vs NY, Boston/Philly vs Chi. Baseball had LA vs Boston. Was there anymore water cooler talk from casual fans those years than any other? Does it ever actually draw in new fans or do anything for the sport long term? Maybe the :30 spots cost a bit more. Great. Could effect the next Rights deal I suppose. Probably not even that if the current deal doesn't expire for another six years. They're outrageous anyway 'cause nobody watches anything else live anymore. [/QUOTE]
