Carbonara is not “white sauce”. What is this crazy talk? Carbonara is eggs and pecorino cheese.
What’s Gudbranson going to say during practice drills? He’s the one that will be giving passes a mile away from the forwards sticks.
Your Canes just signed Stepan. Why did they do that?What’s Gudbranson going to say during practice drills? He’s the one that will be giving passes a mile away from the forwards sticks.
likely to play him on their fourth line on a near league minimum contract and at the cost of zero assets. Where did he play with us again? What was his cap hit? What did we give up for him?Your Canes just signed Stepan. Why did they do that?
That's a helluva lot of money to be spending every year on "support staff." By that excerpt, looks around half a million? I hope he at least has a financial planner.
That's being incredibly smart with your money for a twenty-something athlete.That's a helluva lot of money to be spending every year on "support staff." By that excerpt, looks around half a million? I hope he at least has a financial planner.
Probably a tax write off too...I’m sure he does. Its an investment in his career, the better he performs and the longer he performs, the more money he will make.

Doesn't Lebron spend millions to keep his conditioning and body up ? Its smart to invest in your body and health for his career cause he will make millions later in his 30sThat's a helluva lot of money to be spending every year on "support staff."

It's the amount he's spending which is wild. $100k a year for a chef? $1k a day + apartment for a live-in physio? $50k for a dietologist?

I lived in Cornwall for a few years in the late 80's and early 90's. The Royals were still there. I went to a lot of games. Those kids had their female groupies. They were the Big men on campus at their high-schools (so girls from 15 to 18). You can appreciate the situation they are in. It can be a mess. Who did what??? who knows.
Seriously, the f***?
I read Phil Esposito's book as well as Magic Johnson & in both books they talked about arriving in a city & there being all kinds of girls/women waiting for the guys at the airports. In the case of Magic Johnson he said 30 or more women sometimes were waiting from every walk of life lawyers, nurses, teachers, house wives etc. He mentioned in the book how some guys had their same girls each time they played in that city & others got to choose from whoever was there, there is a reason players love to go on the road.I lived in Cornwall for a few years in the late 80's and early 90's.

I use to attend Carleton Ravens Basketball games. Ditto...after the game, each player had 1-3 female students around them. Most were first years (so 18 to 19 year olds). Again, Big Men on Campus...
One game caught my attention...about 10 years ago now. Laurentian was in town to play the Ravens (and the GeeGee the next night). The Laurentian coach was at the time fairly young, maybe 35-40. Good looking son of a gun..Had long hair, was fit..I mean damn, I never felt more like Cinderla's step sister more than being around him. A group of first year Laurentian students had traveled with the team to Ottawa. 4 girls, and you could tell they were 18, sat next to me. I could pick up some of the chatter from them, it was obvious they found the coach cute. Second half, the fans start razing the coach. Someone yelled out some remark..all 4 girls, in unison, screamed: He is so cute..It sent a chill up my spine. 18 year old girls, the basketball coach..It could easily be 18 year old girls, the basketball player(s). The long and short...impressionable young females, sports VIPS. Can you imagine if that coach decided to "take advantage of their adoration"??????? Now imagine the shit that would fly!!!
Sex scandals involving sports VIPs and young females, or females in general, can be a mess.
My argument is slightly different. VIPs in general have been known to "play the field". Whether its rock stars, or movie stars or any VIP. A good friend of mine was the son of a successful business man. He was worth a few bucks. I had a front row seat. He would arrive somewhere in his sports car and like bees to honey..So, this is not new.I read Phil Esposito's book as well as Magic Johnson & in both books they talked about arriving in a city & there being all kinds of girls/women waiting for the guys at the airports.

It might be different today, I assume it is with everyone carrying a camera with their cell phones, but when you are rich & famous there are a lot of people who want to be associated with you & willing to do anything. And anyone who knows any older ex-NHL players & heard a number of their stories of parties they had & some of the antics they did or the money they blew. These guys are not saints & in the old days were able to get away with a lot more than they do today.
Still this.
They have to distinguish the willing from the not...
99% of all men are not elite athletes. 99% of all men do not have women throwing themselves at them. 99% of all men struggle to find a small number of sexual mates in their lives. As a result, the only answer they understand is no. And are pleasantly surprised when the answer is yes.This is not hard. 99% of adult men, rich and poor, are able to do this their entire lives.
2016 is not long ago. Considering the victim was reportedly 16, she would be 22 now. It can take years for a child (and this is what the victim was) to develop the courage, and realize they have the agency, to come forward.
Your posts reek of ignorance and show your age. You should educate yourself.
