The month of October is a busy one for sports – three major professional sports leagues all vying for the spotlight (four if you count pre-season NBA and five if you consider College Football). There is lots of competition for viewers, night in and night out.
Is anyone worried?
I know it’s just the pre-season, and I know the games have been tight, and I know we’ve been evaluating talent along the way… But the fact is, the Dallas Stars have started the pre-season 1-5-1. That’s just one win out of 7 games. If this were the regular season, fans would be swallowing one heck of a collective gulp. So are you worried?
The Stars opened up training camp two weeks ago, and my son and I joined several hundred other fans in getting a peek at the 2008-09 Dallas team. There was a great energy in the Frisco practice facility, even though the activities on the ice were far from game-like.
