The NHL did it again. Incredible. And by incredible I mean absolutely disgraceful. That's what Saturday's labor meetings were to the sport that somehow made itself look even more inept and selfish than it was when the season got cancelled on Wednesday.

Senior starters do not disappoint
By Ellie Blalock | Feb. 22, 2005, midnight | In Print »
FEB. 22, NELSON H. KOBREN MEMORIAL GYMNASIUM- It is no secret that this has been a rough season for the Blair girls basketball team. They began their first few games hopefully, yet then seemed to descend into a drought where opponents appeared unbeatable, no matter how close the Blair girls came to a win. Whether or not the drought is over is now the question, as in this game the Blazers faced a very weak Wheaton squad which put up almost no fight as the Blair girls cruised to an easy 48-19 victory.
