odessasteps Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Don Cherry is trending on Twitter again. I'll just preserve brain cells and assume whatever he said is worthy of ending up here instead of looking for video. He is wearing a stars and stripes outfit. #bizarroland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Death From Above Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Horcoff statement via NHLPA https://twitter.com/seangentille/status/692056371181674496 It's so rare to see an athlete say "I did it and that was my fault" so I take this at face value, for now.

Death From Above Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 How Detroit has never been fined, or had to start a home game with a penalty due to that embarrassing awful caveman animal sacrifice to the Gods bullshit, when their own staff are so clearly in on both promoting it and letting it occur, is beyond all explanation. The worst tradition in sports. More gross than Glasgow Rangers songs about made up child abuse. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabe Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 I'm pretty sure that's correct. I do believe Detroit can get fined if their staff wave the octopus or stuff like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sabremike Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 The worst thing about the Kane thing are the people saying he is getting heat because of his race. No, he's getting heat because he is a recidivist blockhead who seems to have a knack for finding trouble. He's being hit with relatively minor charges and I hope he learns from it because if he doesn't odds are he will get in trouble again for something more serious.

Without Bobby Hull does the WHA get off the ground? Without Bobby Hull do the Jets survive? Without Bobby Hull does the NHL ever come to Winnipeg? I think it's very likely the answer is "no". He's being inducted into a Jets HOF, not a Husbands HOF. If we start using non hockey behavior as a standard where do we stop? Do we pull down Potvin's #5 and kick him out of the Isles HOF?

I don't have the numbers but it would not shock me if more people are killed by drunk driving than domestic violence. Point being that DWI isn't some frivolous offense.

Listening to a bunch of CBC programming talk about the Hull controversy via my local NPR affiliate, there are apparently a lot of Canadian reporters and fans who would say yes to all of those examples. A lot of (most) Americans don't realize just how progressive Canada really is. The Cleveland Browns are getting ready to unveil a statue of Jim Brown, and in Cleveland everyone will go "he's the greatest NFL player who ever lived" while in Canada there would be a thousand 'think pieces' going "Why are we building a statue for a guy who spent time in jail for throwing his girlfriend off of a balcony."
