[canuckster19]

As a former mod, I can honestly say this is the best April Fools prank I've ever seen on these boards.

Wouldnt this be great if it could have been true?

Great question.   

The answer is..... if you are older than 12, there is no point.  

It is straight up stupid.  

As the mayor of grumpy town, you should vote to ban April's fool in your town.

 

Seriously, there are fake news 365 days a year from supposedly "reputable" sources...at least this day is dedicated to fake news and we can all expect it.

[kloubek]

Oh my - you actually got me. This really would be best for all parties involved and it actually made sense.

HAHA brilliant! I seen this and instantly clicked, as soon as it was loading the page I was like...F**K It's April Fools, and while the page is loading i'm hoping it's true and this isn't some cruel prank...then finally when the page loads up (yes I have slow internet!) and I realize I have been bamboozled...damn you...damn you...

[Attila Umbrus]

Oh wow...I just noticed I can give the minus again to people! When did this change?? And I wonder how long it will last haha

What is this fake news you are talking about? You mean from Facebook and social media posts?  That pretend to be legitimate sources  That comprises 99% of the fake news as far as I can tell.

 

the other sort is just lying for profit - like Donald Trumps tweets or Fox News shows - Hannity or Tucker are not actual journalists for instance so they have “shows” and can say anything - they are not held to any journalistic standard of any sort.  Chris Wallace is an actual journalist and has a “news program”.

You are a very bad person...

[thepress83]

This was the best April fool's joke I've seen this year ... got my heart to skip a beat but alas Loui will be here for a while still.

[spur1]

Was a nice dream. why did you wake me up? 

[canuckistani]

this is so cruel .

[ChuckNORRIS4Cup]

I was so happy to see this then finished reading the post and was very disappointed, but still funny nice one.

 

P.S. you should of never wrote April Fools at the bottom, make them suffer 

[appleboy]

Loui is a valuable player and is a foundational piece moving forward. Much like Sutter.

 

 

 

 

I like the one about Tryamkin being in town and having discussions with management.

Perfect opportunity to use the down vote for the first time thanks!
