Ontario Police Charge Man in NHL Banana-Throwing Incident
All, Courts, Legal, NHL September 28th. 2011, 3:15pm
Chris Moorhouse of London, Ontario is the 26-year-old who threw a banana at Wayne Simmonds during an NHL game last weekend. Moorhouse was served a summons for “engaging in a prohibited activity under the provincial trespassing act. If convicted, he faces a fine of up to $2,000.” Yes, the legalese is tremendous given the situation.
While Simmonds was on the other end of the bigotry stick this week, Moorhouse’s act remains racist and ultimately, just really dickish. He deserves to be publicly shamed for what he did, but I can’t stop thinking about Mr. Banana Grabber.

Didn’t Shanny hand down a punishment for a racial slur this week? Or was it a homophobic one? I still think players should be allowed to say whatever the hell they want on the ice. Let them be judged in the court of public opinion, not Brendan Shannahan’s office.

suspensions. Damm laptop!
September 28th, 2011 at 3:29 PM
You should be. Already put some scratch on them winning the Presidents Trophy this season. Odds were 4/1. Caps are going to be scary good this year. It’ll all come down to what they do in the playoffs though.
I picked them last year to win. I may have to do it again this year.
September 28th, 2011 at 3:29 PM
Not to mention we have proof of one happening, and the other may have been made up.
September 28th, 2011 at 3:30 PM
I’m in this camp too. As far as penalties and breaking rules on the ice, he’s doing a great job. The transparency is there with the videos. Love what Shanny has done for discipline this year.
My earlier remark was just in response to possibly limiting what players say on the ice. Leave that alone. Sponsors be damned. I mean, John Tortorella is going to be AWESOME on 24/7 this year. I don’t think you guys realize just how spectacular that is going to be.

September 28th, 2011 at 3:37 PM
Everyone involved is being fucking stupid. Lombardi for not paying him, for making an ultimatum. Doughty for not cooperating in the least the entire time the negotiation process has gone on. He wants a life setting contract? Cooperate.
The damage in that relationship may be irreparable. As someone who is a fan of a team that competes in the same conference against the Kings, that’s fine by me. Just means that the Wings will have their choice of Doughty or Weber to replace Lids next year.

Cosmetic change in the name of player safety, doesn’t affect the game so it doesn’t bother me either way. Minor hockey teams here have stop signs on their backs (just above the namebar).

I have a confession…
The night of the NFL opener with GB v. NO my roommate ordered the Blazin’ wings at BW3. No human being should ever eat those. He ate one and then the other 5 just sat there because he was in so much pain. Before we hopped in a cab on the way out, we gave the takeout box to a homeless guy. Now, not all of them were Blazin’ but… That homeless guy probably took a horrible dump on some guy’s front porch. I felt bad about it later.
Glad I got that off my chest.
September 28th, 2011 at 3:46 PM
I kinda had that thought too. I guess I dont know what that feels like, but I dont think its this.

not that I know or care to know, but I can’t imagine homeless guys taking what one would call a glorious dump anywhere considering what they are likely eating.

Pearlman also learned from his interviews that both Payton’s wife, Connie — from whom he had been estranged — and his mistress attended his Hall of Fame induction in 1993. The two women met for the first time shortly thereafter.
