News Article: Athletic "Dysfunction In The Desert" Story

[rt]

Big fan of Jersey Mike's. Gotta go Mike's way. I also like most Greek food from some Mediterranean places. Wendy's has great chili. I will get a nice salad every so often too. Preferably with the fattiest dressings slathered all over every item.

I would find myself drinking two beers during games when I lived in AZ and had season tickets.

Okay. You aren’t Chayka. And I like you!

 

[BUX7PHX]

Okay. You aren’t Chayka. And I like you!

I was literally thinking that my last line of defense as to not being Chayka is that I may be, possibly, somewhat likable?

But that is also the exact type of hubris and "trying to be smarter than others" thinking that would make people think I was Chayka, too. Haha.

To be fair, when I shave my head, I actually look a little like Stepan. I hit on all cylinders when it comes to likability

Funny thing about Stepan. He was the last guy you wanted to watch play FOR the Coyotes. But he was probably the best guy you could watch a Coyotes game WITH. haha. Off the charts beerability.

Stepan?

Stepan is probably just about best case scenario for looks when it comes to internet hockey fans. LOL. Not great in the realm of professional athletes. But for a keyboard warrior? He’s like a seven and half. Maybe an eight? Haha.

I look like a puny version of Bill Armstrong or a young version of Dave Tippett. But more wholesome. Like a haggard version of Bob’s Big Boy or a fat version of the Elf on the Shelf.

I would pick Demers. I think Demers is naturally funny, where future HOF Stepan would just grin and try to be funny while slurping his beer.

 

[Mosby]

Honestly I can't recall. Probably on the main boards, so good chance its made up

I seem to recall reading this as well but like you don’t recall the source.

I thought Katie Strang had an overly healthy ego, then Todd Walsh checked-in with this hold-my-beer reminder tweet.

That photo is SO PERFECT. Walsh in the middle of the Miracle team, taking a selfie, and nobody in the background is humoring him.

That should go in the dictionary under "Todd Walsh." Glorious.

That is so true. That picture is absolutely perfect. Todd Walsh is a complete horse’s ass.

I love Walshy

I love Walshy

So does Walshy. Never say in two sentences what you can say in 12 paragraphs.

This is most definitely true!

If pouring syrup all over something to make it sweet was a thing.... Walsh would be tapping an entire maple wood forest.

and he would the primary character in all 12 of those paragraphs.

"Here I'm joined by 20 of my closest friends, memories of a cool night in the Arizona desert back in Feb 1980."

Panarin says 2016 is relatively recent. Just need Pravda to send out a couple of tweets at Walsh is toast.

I'm surprised this wasn't part of the Strang story.

 

[Yotes2000]

This thread has officially gone off the deep end.

 

[Dirty Old Man]

^*More* dysfunction in the desert?

I love how in the picture there is a Hooters restaurant in the background. I like to believe he was leaving the Hooters all hopped up on wine coolers and mild, boneless wings.

 

[Coyotedroppings]

Saw someone pointing out that Strang was close to Chaykas sister. If that's the case, it makes even more sense.

Wouldn’t surprise me, the “women of sports” have banded together which is fine, but don’t go posting glam shots of yourself and expect to be taken as seriously, IMO anyway.
Just wanted to put that out there.... i guess.

Does this ownership group make me nervous? Of course! There's been so much smoke, there must be at least some fire. But I'm still 10x more confident in this group than any group that has preceded it in the last 20+ years.

Same here, although in fairness the bar is so low that an ant would get a skull fracture trying to clear it.

I 100% believe this was the seed to this story above ALL else

So, did you guys see that Craig just ruined his career and is in the process of getting pitchforked by the Twitter rage mob?

I like how he made the article free to read.
