And They're Thinking I'm Taking It Personally...

First off, it's the UrinatingTree subreddit -- I know that means if I get in there with something a lot of people won't like, I'm going to get roughed up a bit and then have to give it back.

The only problem I had with the hockey channel tonight is a continued pet peeve I have had, now, for a long time.  (And the fact they believe I'm wrong when I know I'm right and the stats prove it...)

Can we please get rid of the participation trophy which is the President's Trophy?

Florida, who had the best record in the NHL regular season this year, just got it's ass swept by Tampa Bay, who now appears on track for back-to-back-to-back.

They become the ninth consecutive, and 13th out of the last 14, President's Trophy winners not to win the Stanley Cup.

They are the ninth consecutive not to even reach the Finals, and the eighth in nine not to reach the conference Finals.

Does the NFL have such an award?

The NBA?

Major League Baseball?

There's one prize, one champion, one award that COUNTS.  It's Lord Stanley's Cup, and the regular season, especially with the 16-team playoffs, is BASICALLY USELESS.
