"NHLPA Wastes a Minute of Your Time"

The two hockey sides have gone from airing their dirty laundry through the meeting (instead of actually meeting for months), to being really secretive, and now they are just being silly. Of course we all know behind closed doors everything generally goes well until the words SALARY CAP are uttered. Then they called each other a bunch of jerks and storm out of the room like 5 year-olds.

Below is statement released to the public. I think it might be to the point that the columnists don't even care anymore. Yes, and its February and they are still talking about "trying to save" the season.



NEW YORK (February 3, 2005): At the conclusion of today's meeting in New York, National Hockey League Players' Association (NHLPA) Senior Director Ted Saskin released the following statement:
"The meeting with the league has ended for this evening. The parties plan to meet again tomorrow."



*****************UPDATE*************************

TSN reports that Gary and Bob were there for the fun. They almost burned the midnight oil too. Some think it was a good sign that their meeting ran over. Who really knows maybe it just we drug out because of all the 5 minute majors.
