So you like it that he's an asshole, by your own admission?
Yes, I like my coaches to have an edge to them and not be soft on the players. Same goes for the captains of the team. Many Brad Larsen haters claim he was a bad coach partly due to being the complete opposite, right??
And you prefer it that he created all this attention to his asshole ways, because you want that to be the course of the team?
Is that correct? By your words, you've been more impressed by him after all this, so it's the being n asshole that appeals to you?
1st, Mike Babcock
did not “create all this attention”. None of the claims of what happened are even that he was as “asshole” or “mean”/attacking in any way. I’m just saying this seems to be some sort of “kicker” or “trump card” that all his haters keep throwing out there to SOMEHOW be used as “proof” of
something.
And yes, in general or as a hockey coach, I don’t have a problem with many “assholes”. It’s all perception. Someone has to be an asshole to the REAL assholes in life.
There is a big difference between a situation "not making you like him less" and a situation "making you like him more". What has he done to make you like him more? I could understand if you said 'this thing has been so overblown and there is nothing to see here...I don't like him any less as the CBJ coach.' But saying 'this thing has been so overblown and there is nothing to see here...I now like him more.' is baffling.

To both of you, let me get this straight, other people’s negative opinions of someone or something can only make you feel negatively about that person or thing?? And quite frankly, there’s not very many things that he could actually have done that will make me look at him any worse than I did before.
I’ve also not said that HE has done anything to like him more than I did beforehand. To be clear, I didn’t actually have much of an opinion on Babcock at all before he became the CBJ coach.
Why I like him more now has EVERYTHING to do with how the fake news mainstream shit sports journalists and whatever Spittin Chiclets is considered, have turned this into, and
what seems like the majority of CBJ fans have bought into, or even seemingly felt about Babcock personally before hand.
I became a Columbus Blue Jacket fan for literally the same exact reason why I like Babcock more today than I did 3 weeks ago.
Happy?
And I haven’t even ONCE said that the player might be
Superstar Laine!!
