Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it. The past is there for us to learn from, we can apply its lessons for the future to avoid future calamities.

ESPN is NOT a news gathering organization. It’s an entertainment company and it makes its decisions based around business reasons, not based around journalism reasons…..

Those damn Habs fans boo the Banner all the time. I actually like that team but their fans are simply awful for the most part. Most of them are 5 cans short of a six pack.

I am disaapopinted to be a Habs fan
I am disappointed of the Habs fans
I blame their actions on being French
I am not French

The WWL does not emphasize the NHL beyond the odd highlight for the same reason blogs and most of the mainstream media do not.

For those of you who attempted to visit the site yesterday, my sincere apologies as one of Bloguin's three servers went down and didn't get back up for a LONG time. What KO'd the server you ask?The NHL trade deadline

Way to drive your traffic to Bloguin, dipshits.

i get what you;re saying. i just think that in such situations, muscle and mechanical knowledge and aggressiveness is immediately more important.

Economically, it’s true right now. It wasn’t when the Canadian dollar was suffering.

Economically, each of the Canadian teams pay INTO revenue sharing. Teams like the Leafs, Habs, Canucks, Oilers and Flames are keeping 6-10 teams in the US afloat financially.

If you don’t know how a knowledge of history, both cultural and economic, would better inform someone making decisions among that mess, then I don’t know what to tell you vez.

Who cares what ESPN does and doesn’t cover? They’re not the only outlet around anymore.

I have a working knowledge of how governmental systems are formed and the different theories of what works and what doesn’t based on hundreds of years of case studies and infrastructure analysis. That’s valuable when the systems collapse.

Granted that’s because I have more than a bachelor level education.

explain all that when the shotgun toting mouthbreathing truck drivers are up in your grill looking for your food and wimmen

how’s that going for us already? add a dash of mideast war and oil shutdown, another global economic collapse and a sprinkle of natural disaster right after an epidemic of robot flu, and i’ll scamper over to the armed camp of vehicle operators and shelter builders and i’ll raid your camp of soul searching drumbeaters

They are, without a doubt, the worst collective group of fans on any Canadian franchise.

It is also why I never understood US fans booing the Canadian national anthem.

Those damn Habs fans boo the Banner all the time. I actually like that team but their fans are simply awful for the most part. Most of them are 5 cans short of a six pack.

I apologize for Habs fans. Not just their behaviour, but pretty much their entire existence. We need to work on fixing that issue.

I have no point because it was a response to multiple pointless responses to my initial pointless comment.
