I prefer keeping it up to show what a bunch of f***ing losers their fanbase is, lol.

The problem is (and it really seems like it's still the case from my days as a mod here), people are much more likely to get lit up by mods for reacting. If you have the will power to let the batshit crazy stay up for others to get a good strong whiff of it, that's great. A lot of people do not have the ability to resist replying, and it almost always gets them in trouble.

my dude - take a step back and calm yourself. no idea what your beef is but the poster asked a question "am i crazy" and i answered it directly.

we are fans of the same team.. there's no need to call people dumb and be combative!

Once again you fail to read. I'm not calling you dumb. I am calling your whining dumb.

exactly like refereeing in the nhl, ironically

It's all just bait.

Mock it (as long as it's not personal mods won't care) and move on.

The shits.

I’m rooting for the shits.

You would think that, but not all mods will agree from call to call. The best policy is to stay out of there. It's a lot of rival fans lamenting their existence in text form anyway.

That's why the main boards are a cancer.

HFDoc to you.

 

[Chytilmania]

Just tuned in. Apparently Chytil is dead and other fan bases are mean….

I’ll come back for the game.

[TheWrongWay]

Good for you but I care.

I'm not gonna tell adults how to feel. But I do think there's some value in not sweating small shit. And life often hands us vastly worse than message board posts.

Moreover, I've been watching this team around 50 years. One Cup since color TV. This run and season are very un-Rangers-like. I am loving it and also enjoying the anguish it brings to haters.

 

[Levitate]

Head stuff is weird but if he felt great after the game, didn’t have a problem yesterday, but woke up this morning not feeling well that means me a little more towards it being a real illness

 

[Kovalev27]

Considering how sensitive the subject is if it weren’t concussion related you’d think Lavy would very clearly state that. Leaving it open ended seems like they just don’t want to answer questions right now because it’s a distraction

But very much feels like this is concussion related

I suppose more pro NYR patriotism

The Chytil situation is exactly what I was worried about for the person. We got a game out of him, he didn't seem to get rattled much if at all, and he's STILL experiencing issues. It's surprising if it's surprising to management and the staff.

 

[EdJovanovski]

If he were indeed just sick I don’t think Lavi would refuse to comment on whether it’s related to the concussions, that makes me think it absolutely is

This. This. This once more.

If anyone goes to the main boards, be prepared to be on a short, almost non-existent leash.

My recommendation is to stay away. All the cool kids are on this board anyway.

Right

I can't imagine a world where it's concussion related and it's a game time decision.

Main Boards is a misnomer; it is a team board itself. Weird culture there. Not friendly to NYR at a minimum.

We excel in tight spaces. Those other fans couldn't exist in a sardine packed subway cart. We were molded for this.

I don’t think he would have called him a game time decision either.

We have no idea.

Agreed with your post 100%, however, Laviolette oranyone else NEVER said it was a concussion

 

[DelZottoHitTheNetJK]

If we were by some unbelievable shift in Newtonian physics going to lose a game...

This is the one to lose.

Closing it out at home and staying a little more playoff sharp for rd 3 would not be the worst thing in the world

 

[WhereO Is Kakko]

Dislike.



Edit;But im far from a coach and they have been good with these decisions so I’ll begrudgingly accept.

Meh. Maybe Johnny B can provide some spark to Goodrow and my-jersey-man Vesey (literal jersey not NJ). The latter has been an offensive black hole and a borderline defensive liability (see: failed clears) all series. Hope he does something to redeem himself tonite.
