Well, I was real glad to hear that, because this is sex education week. That's right, sex ed week. We're gonna be talkin' about the PENIS! We'll be talkin' about the VAGINA! Do you think that's funny, Butt-head? Do you find it amusing that we'll be talkin' about the TESTICLES? Yes, we're also gonna be talkin' about VENEREAL DISEASE! SEXUAL INTERCOURSE! THE SCROTUM! THE CLITORIS! And we will definitely be spending a lot of time talking about MASTURBATION!

Dude, your next post that is even remotely close to what 99% of your posts are like will be the last before some time off.

Chill the frank out.

They sure took down my post real quick when I called this guy a 12 year old for telling me to "suk dik"...

Apparently that merits a removal of my post, but it's ok to constantly swear. What a joke

All of them were taken down, you have to backtrack to the original post first.

and someone already got the boot.

It almost was if Ballard hadn't been such a cheap bastard.

"I could have bought Gretzky. They wanted a million bucks. Nobody is worth a million bucks"


Fast forward to 1996.

"I was willing to play for 2 million dollars. I would have even deferred the payments over 20 years. That's how bad I wanted to finish my career in Toronto"


(frank) you Ballard and (frank) you Stavro.

Cujo is #4 all time in wins.

Are you putting him in the HHOF?

- Atomic Wedgie


I think eventually he will be to be honest with you. It'll be when it's a weaker eligibility class, but it wouldn't surprise me if he's eventually in.

Not what you said in the Engel's thread. In fact you've been banned numerous times after being rude and aggressive with me. I've reported a number of your posts and every time I do a mod agrees and bans you. It's people like you that make this site a living hell for people who come to talk hockey and discuss rumours and trades.

I don't know. I wasn't following hockey when he was playing. All I know is if he had the most 30 goal seasons ever, then he likely was a very consistently above average player.
- Domaju

He absolutely was.

In any given season, there are 23 roster spots X 30 teams. So 690 players will play (more if you consider call ups from the minors).

Yet only 4 players a year can go to the Hockey Hall of Fame.

Consistently above average isn't enough.

You have to be in the top 00.5%.

Sorry, but Gartner wasn't ever even close to that.

I know, the fact that Gretzky, who even while his career was nearing the end was still playing at a ppg pace or better, WANTED to play in Toronto for next to nothing and we didn't get him is infuriating.

I dont think it hurts his case as he was inducted to the Hall long ago.

That depends if this is a loaded question considering that he also has the most loses I believe...
- As_I_See_It

That's my point.

The HHOF celebrates guys who play the longest.

In his prime, Lindros was the most exciting player to watch. Nobody before him, and nobody since has had such a total package of skill and brawn and meanness.

Yet he's still out of the Hall, and people wonder if Cujo will get voted in.

Sorry, I don't agree with this.
