Vanflyer Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 if it isn't wrestling, why is a man's hand going near another man's package during competition?Checking to see if they might be quality for Rockey Mountain Oyesters?? just guessing here.

mojo1917 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Reading the article in full changes how i feel about this, sadly in the soundbite era in which we live, the eagles are a dynasty gets pulled out of a thoughtful michael vick quote and crosby hacked my wrists gets pulled out of this story. too bad for all us that this is what we like, building them up to tear them down...

Bakanekimiwa Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Karma is a *****.Also, too, "deliberate attempt to injure" is the definition of "major penalty" - you know, "within the game of hockey." on one hand, i don't like it when players come out and tell secrets about stuff that happens on the ice. on the other, it's kinda about time that players start outing cindy for the dirty little b*tch that he is so the shine can be wiped off him.

DaGreatGazoo Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 At the risk of being a ****..just slash him back!! I'm not getting into a Crosby rant, but I bet a ton of players slash each other on faceoffs. Hell, Lindros used to run right over people on face offs!!

jammer2 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 @DaGreatGazoo If you're gonna be dirty, expect it back. That includes shots to the head. That's how the game flows...you get what you give....no matter who you are. If you have a bad mush, it's best to stay out of this type of pissing match....cause karma is waiting right around the next corner in this league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TedZep Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 As much as I hate Crosby, I don't like to see players injured, even him. Yet he obviously has no respect for other players, even deliberately attempting to injure them. Now, I a hope some vengeful loa haunts Crosby with a serious head injury that leaves him heaving bile every morning for the rest of his life.

DaGreatGazoo Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 @jammer2Agree 100%....if Crosby is slashing, slash him back. Just like if G was slashing players, I'd expect him to get it back as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It keeps the punks from exploiting your injuries. If you don't want any type of retaliation, don't initiate it.You reap what you sow.

JackStraw Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Giroux wasn't complaining about it, he knows it's just hockey. Bobby Clarke would have slashed his own mother to win a face off. Any Flyers fan who complains about this kind of stuff is being silly. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DinahMoeHumm Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 if it isn't wrestling, why is a man's hand going near another man's package during competition?Or football... and those hands near the package are deliberate on every play (save for the shotgun formation where a longing gaze is preferred to actual physical contact). Just wanted to tie up loose ends... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polaris922 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 This whole topic is funny to me. When Hartnell bit Letang in a scrum I don't think anyone here was calling him a b*tch and saying someone should knock his head off. I actually thought it was dirty but kinda funny in a big pile up. Briere does more damage with his stick than other team's entire rosters. Face offs are face offs. A LOT of players use little tricks to get an edge... including using the stick to tie up the opposing players hands. This is done by centers across the league. Hell I've had it done to me in men's league games where wins mean nothing. Intent to injure? Really? I'd say it's more an intent to win the face off. Come on fellas... so you're saying Giroux isn't doing similar things to win face offs? How about punching Crosby in the head, twice, after the whistle at the side of the net? This is ALL part of hockey. It's not dirty or intending to injure anybody. It's emotional, it's competitive, and it's part of what makes hockey the great sport it is. A game on the edge. Many of you are calling it what it is.. petty. But many of you are just being hypocrites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, listening to FZ has never been too much help in shaking any warped thoughts I may have. But it has provided some great ideas for getting them out once in awhile. What a brilliant man he was...

When I first say your name I started laughing b/c I was just listening to Waka Jawaka... love FZ.Great album! Too bad there isn't someone else out there picking up where he left off. There'll never be another like him. The consolation, I guess, is that he certainly left us with an enormous wealth of genius material to consume. Crap, how long is it til 5:00 now? I want to throw on "Rudy Wants to Buy Yez a Drink" and crack one open myself! Edited July 27, 2012 by DinahMoeHumm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I first told her that FZ was very much against drugs she swore I was wrong. The guy was just a once in a lifetime figure...I take enormous pride in the fact that my twelve year old son listed FZ as his favortie musician in his yearbook this year! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DinahMoeHumm Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Your son deserves a medal for that! Yeah, my wife will get annoyed when I listen to FZ too much or for too long, but she absolutely respects him as a musician, father, human being, etc. I guess his music just isn't for everyone. But he was so diverse over his career I think pretty much anyone could find at least *something* that they liked. And you're right, he was very against drugs. Hell, he hardly ever even drank or socialized too much because he thought it was a waste of time that took him away from his creativity.Kudos to you and your son both. My two daughters love when I put the Zappa on. In fact, they both have a couple shirts as well (ones that are safe for school, of course). So have we officially hijacked this thread? All the best to you and your family, and have a great weekend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammer2 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 @DinahMoeHumm Funny how someone as anti-drug as Frank ended up being such a huge drug culture favourite. His music is anything but mainstream (even top hits such as Moving to Montana don't get much radio play, much to my chagrin) so I can see how it was so easy for the psychedelic crowd to warm up to it. Great underrated talent....does not get talked about enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
