Dude, I put in effort in the beggining. I posted a link to the thread on many members walls. I tried to talk about as many teams as possible and be positive towards most teams. I asked the now missing in action trashyouupdister12 to help me get it going (which he did, a good man). I tried to make amusing eye catching subtitles which sometimes worked. But frankly, I think the only sports threads that can have big threads on here with the site being as slow as it currently  are football and soccer threads and maybe nba threads. Hockey is just not that popular. It also does not help that skyrim came out and that I am more interested in football at the moment. Thanks for your support though I will occassionally post.

It also doesn't help that for people like me, we may not have time to catch the games. I've missed most of the Aves games alone, nevermind other games this year just because I don't have time. Football is easier for me to follow with the free time I have during the semester. Granted, I do have more time now over the holidays, and I hope to catch some hockey games (I believe there's an Aves game tonight).

I agree as it is easy too follow all football games when each team plays once a week. This also makes the prediction game work in the NFL as hockey has so many games and would be impossible to have a prediction league for it on this small of a forum.  Also, I tried watching many teams early on as I was very excited, but eventually it became too much with my own schedule and I could only follow the avs.
