And what do the old timers in Florida South Carolina miss more than anything? The Saturday night game!

No more "old-time hockey?" This world's really going to hell.

Someone needs to "put the foil on" and go straighten this out.

In my college years, I attended many games at the War Memorial. It was always a good time minus the fights in the stands. The Chiefs will be missed.

For letting them leave town, the owners should "FEEL SHAME"

I thought the Hanson Brothers had to approve any move of the franchise. Somehow another tradition is lost.
