Media Considers Gretzky Poor Source For Olympic Hockey Insight
Published Tuesday, February 14, 2006 by Ted | E-mail this post
With the Olympic hockey about to begin all time leading NHL hockey legend Wayne Gretzky has, as of yet, to be asked any questions about hockey. That of course is of know surprise. As the old saying goes “those who can’t anymore work for Fox Sports as an analyst” and I doubt anyone questions that Gretzky still can. His insights to hockey are limited to on ice strategy, scoring, defending, line changing, puck handling, shooting, the rules, team work, talent, drive, winning, being a champion, coaching, being the captain of a championship team, and losing which remain completely irrelevant to reporting on the game of hockey. Despite having “The Great One” for their coach, the Canadian Olympic Hockey team is a favorite to bring home the gold. Although reporters haven’t asked Gretzky about hockey and he hasn’t really answered any questions as of yet Gretzky finds himself amidst a controversial investigation involving his wife, his assistant coach, and the vice president’s hunting gun. He has been barraged with questions about gambling and math equations that would make most bookies faint from excitement. Wayne Gretzky made a single plea to cease with the questions that made him feel inadequate in math saying, “I will answer any questions you have about hockey!” This of course brought a huge laugh from the media who know more about hockey than there is to know.
