  1. Per Latino Review, quoting a Forbes writer, since Affleck dropped out of directing The Batman, the studio is likely scrapping Affleck's script and starting brand new. Affleck had a script pretty far along to the point it had gone through re-writes and had cast Deathstroke. Back to the drawing board. And talk of pushing it back a year and moving Birds of Prey (the Batgirl/Harley Quinn film) up to take its place.
  2. My point is, the NFL actually hid the information from players. There is no evidence the NHL did. The NHL cant be responsible for players in the 70's and 80's suffering CTE when no one knew what that is. Thats just a greedy cash grab. But the NHL is NOW showing ignorance. And they're going to lose. Maybe they're just trying to drive the settlement down.
  3. True. its a weird thing. Probably not too many Stones fans paying for tickets to see them and paying for tickets for local cover bands playing Stones music and lamenting on message boards how they feel pity for Mick and insulting the cover bands. Says more about the people saying that. But when you're in the business for awhile you understand who the term "mark" is used on. Self loathing wrestling fans. lol Like you said, its like anything else. I mean, if Im Ricky Morton and someone wants to pay me $300-$500 to wrestle for ten minutes in front of an adoring crowd, why would I say no? Because I think some fan will feel pity for me? Every sport or business has hard luck cases. But lets not pretend this particular fan really had an issue with that. He followed a post about HOF with a photo of a 60 year old Rock & Roll Express. Sad commentary on that fan if you ask me. Anyway.... WWE announces 4th quarter (and 2016) results. For the year, they set a new company revenue record of $729.2 million dollars with OIBDA of $80.1 million. Big time money for WWE. And in TNA news, Jeff Jarrett is back in charge. Dixie is gone. Jarrett has brought back Dutch Mantell and Scott D'Amore to the booking team. All eyes are on the Hardy's as their contracts expire in the next few weeks (I think Matt's expires around Feb 27th). WWE is interested.
  4. He doesnt rip on Stu and Thorbs because their impact on the team is minimal. His point is they have the wrong mix of players, especially in the leadership areas. The young talent is there. But one could argue that the most expensive D (Buff & Toby) havent been good enough. Lack of effort, you can look internally at the team leadership and coaching.
  5. How do you know how many wins Pavs would get the rest of the season?
  6. This is the great shame of the NHL right now - the denial of CTE and brain injury. I realise they want to win a lawsuit but its a sickening lack of empathy. The NFL players won a lawsuit because it was shown the league knew of the dangers and hid that from players. Im of the mind that players in the 70's, 80's etc cant pin that on the NHL as no one knew. But any player today who goes on to suffer CTE could win a lawsuit. The NHL is handing this to the players (down the road) on a silver platter.
  7. Any other market and the media would be hammering coach and GM about six years of poor d play, inconsistent effort, inconsistent preparation, below average goaltending. Here it's a damn open mic night at rumours comedy club.
  8. It's very unprofessional and shows mental weakness.
  9. Hutch has same number of wins as Pavs and better stats so according to Ducky he's the answer.
  10. Oh that's nice. Whats he been doing since last season? Maybe in 2019 he will work on a back up goalie.
  11. Actually Chiarot wasnt good last year. The bottom pairing have been bad for awhile. Started the season without Trouba but with Myers so thats a wash. Did nothing to make bottom pairing better. We all expected the Jets do be better. Though I did say it could be a step back year. Talent is one thing. Effort is another. The coaches arent working or the wrong mix of players. Either way, that's Chevy's department. We all know there have been times players quit and coaches got fired because you cant fire the players. But its accepted. Bad teams have to assign blame and it goes to the coach until enough coaches get fired that it goes to the GM.
  12. This isnt opinion. You are wrong. We've seen the stats posted many times. Hutch is better than Pavs. GAA and Save %. You cant use wins because its too subjective when so many other factors are involved. In fact they both have 4 wins! Same amount of wins. and Hutch has better stats. God...please log off the internet.
  13. Not arguing over who is least bad. Trying to save one person from their own delusions. And failing.
  14. You wont have them. A goalie can be TERRIBLE and win. But not for long. Terrible is terrible. You dont really believe it, you just cant admit you're wrong. And its growing tiresome.
  15. Oh sorry Ducky. You're right. Ducky knows. Ducky knows that no team in the NHL would claim Hutch on waivers. Why have you kept this information to yourself? Please call Chevy and tell him. Because Ducky knows.
  16. Whats your point? That Hutch isnt good enough so the Jets should keep playing a guy WORSE and also risk losing Hutch and then have to give up an asset to find a goalie to expose in the expansion draft? When you find yourself in a hole, stop digging. You've lost. Give it up.
  17. Except that wasnt the story. The story was the Jets suspected San Jose would claim Hutch. Why? I dont know. You're free to call San Jose and ask around. But for a guy who said he was done talking about goalies, you sure are clinging to this fallacy of...I dont even know what your point is anymore. other than you want people to believe Pavs is better than Hutch. You need Kellyanne Conway to come along and clarify for you.
  18. I just showed you that wasnt true. You're wrong. Flat out. He's not even the worse goalie on our team. Please move on...
  19. How do you know they are better? Going into this season: Condon: 2.39 .904 Enroth 2.84 .909 Hutch: 2.53 .912
  20. Clearly facetious remark...lol How long did it take you to meet every Trump voter and ascertain they werent racist? Im quite certain some of his voters are. The shy Trump supporters tie themselves in knots looking for ways to defend him.
  21. Who are you going to sign? San Jose has two goalies under contract for next year. So they dont need Hutch. They want him...why? I dont know. I guess they think he's better than who they have. You're the one who keeps arguing about goalies. You love Pavs. he's the worst goalie we have. Worse than Hutch. Hutch has proven he can be better. Pavs hasnt.
  22. The most hilarious thing was Trump, in his golden palace as the blue collar candidate. They forgot, you voted for Trump because you're a racist and he promised to make America White Again.
