  1. Hope he doesn’t feel discriminated against. ‘Do unto others…’, Provorov.
  2. It’s also based on past precedence. It’s also funny AF!
  3. One version injures you immediately. The other after the fact. Both are injurious, as you know. However, the problem isn’t that injuries occur, it’s that we tolerate those that willfully, through their acts or inaction who, injure others…particularly due to the result of being brainwashed by fairy tales that were entrenched into them from a young age.
  4. Probably, if I had to guess. I think it reflects poorly on the team and League, imo.
  5. I don’t think he should be forced to do anything either. And I agree. Garbage perspective by him and imo his religion. He has the right to refuse to practice of course. He also bears the the persona responsibility of dealing with the backlash of making a willful choice for tacitly supporting non-inclusivity. If he’s ok with that, then great. May he reap what he and his religiosity sows.
  6. I think the racism you can’t see is/can be just as injurious to your life, liberty and the security of your person. That’s how veiled racism worked for centuries against visible minorities through religious and legislation. Intolerance whether seen or unseen is still a destructive force.
  7. He could have put on his regular sweater and warmed up with his team. Appears he wanted to make an overt statement while hiding behind his religion.
  8. The thing is that he’s choosing to be non-inclusive in a sport and country that supports inclusivity. By refusing to participate, it’s an act of non-inclusivity, which is and has been used to foster hate against those that are different. Would we tolerate players if they didn’t want to play with African-Canadians/Americans? Would we tolerate players who refused to play with a female player, should they enter the League again? Would we tolerate players who refuse to play with Muslim players? Provorov could have played in his regular uniform. Seems like he wanted to make a statement. He didn’t want to warmup with anyone that was being inclusive of those that he doesn’t support based on their sexual orientation.
  9. They need guys to build around. The current team isn’t those guys. Until this team has the kinda defence that can stop a wave of evil, ‘we’ have no team to celebrate around. You wanna talk “how many years”? I’ve been waiting decades, and we got close a couple times. Coming close is like watching your girl screw another guy and driving her home hombre. Don’t tell me about guys who get you close.
  10. The team has wasted plenty. Those two you mentioned are developed. Who else would you like to see waste away watching? It’s time for this team to shit or get off the pot. And the pot is full of shit.
  11. Talk to me before Trade Deadline. It’s costs you less now.
