No matter how bad it looks, those in charge find a way to make it even worse. Like a pack of ravenous dogs, they are snarling over the last scraps of meat rather than get together to work things out. It’s as if they don’t care that it’s all coming down to a dark, bitter end – each wants their own piece and damn the rest.
I’m not writing about the US Congress or anything so big. This is the state of the National Hockey League (NHL). The owners and players are in the process of taking a $1.87B per year league down to zero – for the second time in eight years. Why they can’t just let them strap on skates and beat each other bloody to get it out of their systems before the real negotiations begin, I don’t know.
