Anecdotal evidence town, but every hockey game I've been to has been filled with the trashiest people I've ever had the displeasure to share a building with. I would need hard data to be convinced.

So the guys who were the best writers were the ones who ended up getting the baseball beat. I'm not sure it holds completely anymore - I haven't decided if I like Lupica's writing, for example - but it seems to hold pretty solidly
to baseball writers.
to FJM not being around anymore.
