Like most interventions by the government, this week's undertaking by Federal Mediators proved to be an abject failure. These were the same people that were able to convince NFL fans that football was a sport and that the owners should not treat their players like cattle. The mediation ended as quickly as it began and I only imagine it was due to a very low key and apathetic dialogue, akin to the peer-reviewed mediation sessions we had in our elementary school. The teacher would get some scrawny, awkward overachiever to sit down with the two bullies who were encroaching on each other's drug routes and hallways and try to convince them that they were both people and should just hug it out.
In any case, this was a complete failure and about the 99th final nail in the coffin so that the corpse of the 2012-2013 NHL season looks like an overused hunk of Swiss cheese. ESPN almost makes this bearable by limiting their hockey knowledge to that little tid bit about the girl from "The Office" who played field hockey for some Ivy League school. Thanks, ESPN, for keeping me deluded.
