angry players formulating proposal to deliver to NHL. Supposedly McCowen is talking about it right now. Some of us on another board are trying to confirm this.
Cloned said:I can confirm that McCown said that the station was considering whether or not to report the rumour. He said this during his conversation with Bettman.

Caving in Wednesday night = is the stupid thing to do, but workable

Thanks, I wish I was writing it instead of dissecting failed negotiations. It will be back if we have real hockey at some point - if replacement hockey I'll have to see what that looks like first.Bruwinz37 said:Hey Glen, I miss your weekly breakdown's of Garrioch! Classic stuff!
I did listen (and watch). It was on Sportsnet. He said something about how there was a rumour but that they weren't sure about the validity of that rumour. This was in regards to asking Bettman what he would do if the PA would phone him right after McCown hung up and told him they were accepting his offer. Bettman laughed and said something to the effect of "Well, I'm not saying we would accept it but that would be an interesting problem to have."Reilly311 said:wrong, I listened to the whole interview and nothing of that sort was said. Hell, you can go to the fan590.com and listen to the interview yourself. Now please, close this thread and ban everyone.
Cloned said:Well to be fair McCown did mention it.
Don't take it personally, but everybody here has had a bad day after getting their chains yanked around for two months now with nothing but rumors that have led to nothing, were tired of rumors, screw them.spartyinmd said:Why the heck are you harping on me when all I am doing is looking for confirmation....for cripe sake I even put RUMOR on the heading. I know this isn't gospel...otherwise I would have left it off
