I will never EVER feel sorry for a multi millionaire athlete because fans don't like him.
That goes with the job.

44 is Rielly good
I mean, just because something goes with the job doesn't mean it's okay.
I can feel sorry for Holl that he is considered the whipping boy of the TML franchise by the fans and still realize his life overall is exceptionally good.
He’s a human being. Money or job don’t matter. Some people are over the top.
Yeah but like I said sometimes fans don't like you that's part of the deal he knew that from the moment he dreamed of of being an athlete.
That's what it is.
Well as long as your sympathy has a price tag…
I always find it humorous when people say “they’re rich, who cares about XYZ”. Like being wealthy gives others the right to shit on them. Jealousy takes all forms I guess.

Rewatched the game from the recording. The only time I see possible contact with Liljegren’s right hand was near the start of the 2nd (19:02 mark) Zibanejad lays a pretty nasty slash on his hands.
He played most of the period, taking shots etc. Must have started bothering him by late in the period.
Hope it’s not fractured.

Not that I’ve seen. Guess today was an off/travel day so no practice means no scrums. We’ll hear tomorrow after the morning skate.

He is such gravy and looks like a vietnam vet with that thousand yard stare. He definitely doesnt look like a 23 year old. His face looks like a catchers mit. What a player. He looks older than giordiano at times.... He is that man for surely sire.

Jealously has nothing to do with it, I simply don't feel bad for people that have to deal with things that they knew were part of the deal when they got into the field.
For example I don't know if we any video game developers here but I know that there is a termcalled "Crunch" in that industry and it's when the team working on the game has to start putting in long hours in order to meet a deadline.
I don't feel bad for them that's part of the job and they knew that when they started working in games especially if they are working at a place known for putting people through "Crunch" like Rockstar.
You work at Rockstar you are going to work hard and you knew that going in, if it's to much don't work at Rockstar.
Or an actor on a successful show that has to spend hours and hours shooting a show and then has fans of said show coming up to then wanting a picture or autograph.
That's part of the deal if you become a successful actor you asked for that.
If I'm going to feel bad for somebody it's going to be because they deserve it, it's not going to be because parts of job they signed up for are hard because there isn't a job on this planet that doesn't have parts to it that are hard.
Then why even mention their salary as you did? Doesn’t make sense. You qualified it yourself in that manner.

I feel more sorry for the weirdo's obsessed with whining about him, when he's been half decent in his role this year. It's like when they've made up their mind, they can't let go to such a degree it seems pathological. I wish they had the financial situation Holl has so they could access resources that would probably greatly improve their quality of life.

I generally prefer the company of rich people over poor people...especially if they own boats.Well as long as your sympathy has a price tag…

Because when that factors in I feel even less sorry for them because now that same actor is paid millions to play a character,that same athlete is paid millions to play a game,at that point you don't get to complain about your job,you deal with hours and hours of shooting followed by autograph and picture seekers.
You deal with fans booing you.
You deal whatever the "hard" aspects of the job are.
A because you asked for it.
B because when you make it to that level and you start making that kind of money no one will feel bad for you You're on easy street, some guy out on a constuction site does not give a f*** about how Justin Holl feels about the fans not liking him.
Some firefighter who has to run into burning buildings does not give a f*** about if Norman Reedus is annoyed by fans wanting autograph picture or not.
Everybody gets to dislike parts of their job. Hockey players are paid millions because they spent decades of their lives and thousands and thousands of hours perfecting skills to do something - detrimental to their short and long-term health and future job potential - that people will collectively pay billions to see. They are still human, and deserve the same respect as everybody else.

I find it fascinating that there is a distain for the wealth of players when the only outcome in removing that would mean richer owners.

It looks like he’s playing.
Need to hear the official word from Keefe but it’s looking real promising that he’s good.
