The Draft and Rogers from a fed up fan

[BlueBaron]

"Safeguard"read aloud sounds an awful lot like "trust us" in any number of environments that sell integrity via security only to have been found compromising the trust of it's clients.

You win, I can't take the debate seriously.

And you have proof it doesn't?

My conspiracy theory is based on observation and analysis. You think a corporate entity worth billions doesn't attempt to manipulate and control every single variable that affects profit (e.g. Crosby to an ailing Pittsburgh franchise with Mario bleeding cash)? You think there aren't back-room schemes and agreements at the highest level to maximize league "health" (McDavid to Arizona)? Are you so naive that you think all that the NHL braintrust does is wring their hands about shootout 4v4 or 3v3 laugh? You think powerful ownership lobbyists don't sway business decisions (not allowing a second team in the GTA)?

Hell, even the local in-bred hillbilly municipal council is bent.

Is this real?
