What have they done?

Hey pens fans,
I haven't heard anything new, but I wanted share some of my thoughts on what has already happened and what may happen in the future. Hockey has been an important part of my life for a long time. I remember going to games when I was a kid and nothing made me happier than to see my Penguins win. I remeber watching Lemieux and Francis on a line together it was almost magical. I cannot believe the league and the players cannot come to an agreement. They have forgotten the most the two most important parts of the game, the game itself and the fans. Do they think what they are doing is for the good of the game? If they do, do they realize that without the game, which because of their lockout they are not playing, they wouldn't have a job or make the kind of money they do? They also seem to have forgotten about the fans, the fans who buy the tickets and go to the games, the fans who buy their merchandise, the fans who watch the games on tv, which why the league makes money from ESPN carrying the games. (along with the local stations for each hometown) These are the fans they are disappointing. Do the players and the league realize that without the fans they wouldn't have a game that they could play that they love and make enormous amounts of money? I just hope for the sake of the sport that I love the fans will come back to the game once this is all over. However, I can almost not blame the fans if they do not come back after the players and the league have acted like bitter children. I did say almost. I think that most fans will come back and those who don't were not true fans to begin with. Please tell me your opinions on the status of the league by emailing them to me at pensfan17148@msn.com.
