GDT: Flyers @ Hurricanes 5PM

[Finnish Jerk Train]

A bit OT, but does anyone know the name of the song they've been playing as they skate out for the third?

Soundhound tells me it's "Born to Rise" by Redlight King.

So our new favorite blog writer Peckerar has a new one up. Not gonna even bother posting a link for it, but I'll quote the relevant parts of the 'article'

There are two options here.

1. The guy is completely clueless about the sport he is writing about.

2. [mod]

I think he is intentionally writing inflammatory and controversial statements to get more hits on his website.

 

[What the Faulk]

Bingo. You're just encouraging him by posting his stuff. He knows what he's doing.

Gotta rake in those fractions of a penny somehow.

yaaaaa.... figure? really though, this particular guy is so friggen obvious. he's either new and inexperienced, stupid, or generally just a dick. regardless, the guy is insignificant.

sadly though and like I mentioned before, he is somewhat representative of these types and media in general. it's what they do - they have to generate or I should say create controversy. the people with integrity are the exception in that profession. the worst of it all is that there are many people who read that ****, believe it, regurgitate it, and it becomes fact amongst many fans of the sport. again, you would think that all players would want to escape alot of this crap by playing for a low key team like the Hurricanes where integrity amonst the media is the rule rather than the exception. the guys in Raleigh clearly exhibit professionalism in contrast to so many other towns. just trying to find info about someone or something in Toronto or Pittsburgh is frustrating and maddening to say the least.

on the other hand, I suppose many players actually enjoy the spot light.

Meh..even if you forget about the tiny amount of money, nobody would even be talking about the guy if he wrote a story without the controversy.

What's up with not getting GD game day threads up very early on GD game days? GD it.

I think that's the reason Sad King Jimmy didn't post a link. We can mock him all we like here without giving his stuff the pagehit.

Not everybody treats HF Boards as life and death. Honestly, this board is entirely too stuck up about GDTs. If there's not one by a reasonable time, somebody needs to just go ahead and post one.

So what you're saying is we need some GD GDTs?

Let's see here...Zombie Mike Murphy's computer died on him the morning of his GDT, and Chicago Made Punk has a recurring medical issue that prevented him from making his. Aside from that, the only other people who have signed up for GDTs are myself and Carolinas Identity.



I wonder why we aren't getting GDTs made in time, it really is appalling.
