      While there are some archaeology shows, and Moonshiners worth watching, these probably beat the rest of it. The Travel Channel shows mostly fake ghost stories. Nat. Geo. plays drug busts all night long. SyFy rarely plays Sci-Fi, and when they do, it's either shark or croc something, or I've seen it. The comedy usually isn't funny, but political indoctrination, and the news is either extremely slanted, or just boring. MTV doesn't play music, except for the awful video music awards. PBS is pretty much all Dem operatives. None of these chans seem to be what they're supposed to be, except CMT, and I'm rarely into country. At this rate, I'll be going back to watching old episodes of That '70's show, and Battlestar Galactica. The original series, of course. Not Necessarily the News seems fresh and funny by comparison.
      I always laughed at how low budget and third-rate they played their TV station at SCTV. LOL: The Toronto Bay Leaves.

    The hockey scenes were shot at the old Garden in Edmonton . At 4:36 you can see while John and Rick are loading the car in the exterior shot that the building seems to be falling apart back there. But when it came time to demo the old place the wrecking ball just bounced off the walls because it was actually very well constructed. I dont know how it was eventually leveled but it took millions more . Much to the annoyance of city tax payers who were sold the idea that the Garden would soon totally collapse .

    That was deep and illustrated the melancholy life many hockey players lived. The 'enforcer' role is perhaps the most demanding role of any player as they are mocked and thought of as a 'no mind' void of feelings and aspirations. They do their time in the league and then are promptly put out to pasture. It's a heartbreaking scenario, no glitz, no glory, no dating a supermodel and no certainly no Conn Smythe Trophy. Careers short lived, spit out and replaced by another who is tougher and stronger. Not all hockey players go on to have the Gretzky life style, some are left with a broken body and concussed brain and a small, insufficient savings account. The more we celebrate the the top point getters the more we dismiss The Enforcer. It's a lonely path and many times ends in misery and heartache.

    • @richardwestmoreland4796
      @richardwestmoreland4796 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Being an enforcer in the NHL is a tough role to have no pun intended but it is also almost extinct now. In today’s NHL if you can’t contribute in other areas of the game the chances aren’t good that a team is going to use a roster spot for them. These guys who have the role of an enforcer don’t have anyone holding a gun to their head and are free to go do something else so it is still a choice they make and not one that many players will make but with some people the lure of money and stardom must override making the smart decision of finding another occupation. Science has for the most part determined that brain injury is something that can lead to a disease that affects the cognitive abilities of someone who has sustained at least one too many blows to the brain. It is sadly something that too many people are willing to take the risk in contact sports but make no mistake it is still a personal choice that is being made when people take on such risks in things like a hockey enforcer.
