I'll take that apology, beacuse I'm consistently offended by your trade proposals on this board.

Farhan = GM from old CC?

Hey expat, if you're reading this, I really hope for your sake that Feaster sees the writing on the wall. Major changes need to happen in cowtown.

PHX is still in it

This is what I always imagined Artie looked like in real life. Citizen THINKER.

FRom Canuck Army, I came acros this after my own post CHEERS to Vancouver broadcaster Dave Pratt for returning to the airwaves in short order. News broke last night that Pratt will join CKNW, likely starting Monday, joining the morning team as sports host to start. The speculation is that Pratt ...

Watched a bit of the Flames / Sharks game yesterday. Although SJ played a poor 1st period, the Flames looked full of hustle and tenacity. They are trying to elbow grease their way out of the hole.

I always dread über-hard-working teams.

I kinda like the spirit of this idea, but: Call me crazy, but I just don't see Gillis ever approaching Quinn to do something like this. They are both too big an ego, and it's hard to imagine MG handing the reigns of the public image of the organization to anyone - let alone a BMOC like Pat Quinn ...

Gallagher embarrasses Vancouver: LINK Not a fan of Gallagher by any stretch, but the high-school phone ambush tactic of the Boston media was pretty childish, IYAM. As I've said before, I'm done with the hockey media in general. Even outside of Vancouver-centric issues, the quality is intolerable ...

Good points, tant. Just don't let CAL mgmt read that - we want the kneejerk reactions so that Jackman comes loose!

I think our local guys are a bit in awe of McLean and because of that he gets away with a ton of BS. I remember he went on the Team40 after the Burrows smear thing, Pratt and Taylor both hyped the interview up like they were going to rip Ron a new one but they ended up giving his the softest ...

I suppose you're a libertarian at heart. You just raised the intensity of this thread about 4 notches. In my view, there is more to life than individual autonomy. Systemic issues are real. Hence my argument that SNP is part of the problem even if they provide reasonable coverage. With that being ...

Agreement on the general state of the media. And, I applaud those who reject the dreck (1040 in particular), but my question is whether these outlets undermine the psychology of the team. Does the media "undermine the psychology" of the public at large? IMO, it couldn't be more detrimental, and ...

In Vancouver, the media across the entire bandwidth, not just sports, had become dreadfully poor. Absolute garbage. In fact, that's true of the national media as well: even the once globally-respected G&M has become frequently unreadable. As a result, I no longer give a fuck about the media. And I ...

Giordano out on LITR.
