The Nashville Predators Are An Absolute Joke

The Predators’ latest attempt to “keep the red out” is completely and utterly ridiculous. They have announced that a Tennessee credit card will be required for entry to tonight’s Stanley Cup Playoff game between the Blackhawks and the Predators. StubHub has said that people with tickets bought from their site will be able to enter without a credit card, but the team has denied this, so we’ll see what happens.

The fact that the Predators had to resort to stupid crap like this to keep opposing fans out of their building is proof that they don’t deserve a team. Period. It is a travesty, and a sham, and a mockery, it’s a travishamockery, that Nashville has a team and Hartford and Quebec City don’t. If Gary Bettman was even a halfway-decent commissioner, he would take the team away from Nashville and assign it to a city that deserves it immediately.

And here’s a thought Nashville, if you don’t want opposing fans buying tickets, how about you buy them yourselves. At the time I’m writing this, 4:15 central, there are still good seats available for tonight’s game. So the Predators may have found a way to keep the red out, but they’re also keeping the green out.

EDIT: The Predators didn’t sell out, so the game was blacked out in Tennessee. Well done, guys.
