It shouldn’t be this difficult to be a sports fan.
That’s the thought which keeps circling in my head after the events of the last week involving the Chicago Blackhawks: It shouldn’t be this hard to support a hockey team.
It must be stated again that the people who lost the most from all of this were not us fans, though, nor was it Rocky Wirtz or anyone in the Blackhawks organization — no matter how much Gary Bettman tries to convince us. It was Kyle Beach who did, along with the other victims referenced in the lawsuits against the Blackhawks over the last year, who were failed by this organization’s lack of reporting of wrongdoings by Bradley Aldrich and by it’s lack of disclosure to the places were Aldrich went and caused more harm.
