You go back to the black and white RCA in your parents living room when a two hander to ankles made National Heros, and you wonder why Shanahan could have even have suspended Kessel in light of the precedent 41 years earlier.

In your black and white world you are upset that Kessel is not on the pedal stool (lol) as your beloved Bobby Clarke.
Like omg Topper, is NOTHING sacred to you?? :crazy:

So do you hate Pacific Blue for what he did to Loopy?

(this joke would have been WAY funnier if I had actually used the 2 posters I had in mind)

LOL.

On the contrary! He achieved legendary status in my mind after that.

I was actually trying to follow in his footsteps by courting Internet username Vee, until I found out that "she" was actually a man trying to mess with my head. :mad: (both literally and metaphorically speaking).

Which two posters are these ? :?

BTW was Loopy a tranny or was she an actual chick ? I do remember Loopy the poster and the dude apparently hit that , I just wasn't sure if she was a she or a shim.

Yep. Exactly.

Vee ain't no cow.

"She" is/was a raging bull. :(

It was a vicious inside joke that I was on the receiving end of, but ah well. :wow:

Wheels and Rummy?
Spidey and LB?
OMS and Red?
Artie and a mirror?
Rats and a sock?
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Yeah, basically they are throwing out the common-law concept of precedence - unless it suits them. No precedence on which to base any interpretation of the rules or any application of discipline... Mao and Stalin would be proud.

Still, I have to admit I am surprised that Buttman had the nerve to ding a player from one of his crony owners' teams. Thornton was a bit of a low-hanging fruit, though.

That said, I wonder what would have happened had it been Lucic in the middle of it and/or it was game 75 of the season.
Thats a lot of nerve coming from a former lawyer, even a Kangalawyer.

I think we all know what wouldn't have happened if it was Lucic.

However the CBA, which Doc continues to advertise his inability to read, recognizes each incident is unique.
Translation: The CBA hereby grants Gary & Shanny the legal right to play favourites with players and teams in their omniscient rulings.
