It was an interview with Murph did you see it?
- VANTEL


Nope and I won’t. The headline pissed me off. I’m not going to fall for it.

Now if it said “are the Canucks playoff contenders” then I would have clicked to see what was said/written.

Are you dieting? I'm trying to diet as well. For one meal a day I eat real good. Normally egg whites and 4 stripes of turkey bacon with some fruit.

Rest of the meals, a loaf of garlic cheese bread, 6 medium sized pancakes, 2 piece of fish with veggies and 8 perogies, a couple pop tarts.

Kind of a normal minimum I eat in a day.

I did keto for about 6 months, lost about 25lbs. Now I eat what I want but watch my portions. Holding steady so far.

Keto + IF is the greatest diet plan out there. 6 strips of bacon and 3 eggs for breakfast while losing weight, win win

3/4 of North America should restrict their carb/sugar intake

Filet, cauliflower mash, béarnaise sauce asparagus for dinner. Though, you get a bit tired of it after a while. I really missed fresh fruit.

Still avoiding sugar as much as possible. No cookies, cake, candy etc.

Canucks would need to sh1t the bed not to make the playoffs. That should.t even be a topic.

When I read American sports journalists (mostly) they seem to have their observations down to a science, especially football. They can really break it down and educate you on the intricacies of the game.

Canadian hockey journalists seem to peddle flaccid opinion, gossip, and rumours. Any interesting factoids about the game or team is usual found at the end of the article in bullet form.

Guys on here have done a good job identifying the few good hockey writers but they had to spend a good amount of time finding them, or at least, paying to read them.

I follow a few insiders but I dont read anything that isnt written by Carol. Not trying to brown nose, but I havent been able to find anything worth continuing to read, canucks related, outside of Carol's blogs. Probably the same thing goes for every poster who shows up every day. It wont be long before carol moves up and on and we have a canucksarmy basement blogger replacing her. We truly are blessed with these.

Yes, exactly. So do you need a main page headline and interview to give an obvious response?

Q: Should the Canucks be considered cup contenders?
A: No.

Lazy, poopy journalism.

It might be, but it was presented in a way that bothers me, not just about sports reporting, but with web base journalism in general. Everything has to be sensational.

It should have been one of those light hearted questions at the end of a piece about the Canucks position so far this season. Lots of good, interesting stuff going on. No need to get stupid about it.

Edit: we are starting to get what we hate most about Toronto base media.

It was a simple question asking Murph are they contenders and if not how close or far are they. Not a big deal.

As I added above, we are starting to get what we hate most about Toronto base media.

I know it’s not a big deal but I think it’s a worthy talking point in an endless discussion on all things Canuck. Thanks for indulging me. Back to discussing 2024 rosters and whether or not a Russian crybaby will come back and solidify our D core.
