because it's controversial content?
- Michael Pachla


Sorry, I should clarify. Why are people arguing over whether it was a hand pass or not

Controversy about replays and challenges i get but the NHL publicly came out saying they poop the bed and that those two refs aren't working anymore.

but can they take an order from 10 people without writing it down?

Most blueblood sports team owners' kids qualifications are "am rich, have been rich."

The fact that she doesn't come from that, and that he and she both come from modest backgrounds shouldn't be a source of derision. Though I suspect if she were born rich, there would be different ways of mocking her. This has to do with her being a powerful woman, plain and simple.

he was like a family member, an uncle you've heard about more than you've seen but on the occasions where you do interact, his worldly knowledge was delivered with calm confidence in himself and the situaions he's been in and been through

%100

All the hockey dads who sit in my row know this guy.

We should stop talking about the coach/GM/owner like that before she serves us some poison in our 716 Burgers.

You don't understand, he can't coach once he turns 60.

Krueger worked for a very rich person in Katharine Liebherr, who inherited the soccer club from her deceased father

No idea how good he'll be but the more I learn about him the more I like the hire. No one knows how well any coach will work out for any team so I'm just gonna hope for the best. It's all I got.

Women can't own sports clubs because they're all Black Widows that have no training.

You can simultaneously love the hire and be skeptical of the on ice results. No one says a bad thing about the guy. Oilers fans and players both admit that it was a mistake to fire him. When was the last time you saw fans supporting an axed coach? Teddy Nolan 20 some odd years ago? It's a rarity.

I would love to see the tuff guy attitudes here evaporate if they had a chance to talk to Kim Pegula. It would be less "waitress" and more "pleasure to meet you ma'am"

Any reed that has the word "amalgamy" in it, is a good reed in my book.
