I mean, 20 years ago you'd have to buy the newspaper to read an "open letter", so I don't think this is any different. I wasn't the one debating this with you though.

CanuckGAME Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 (edited) Oh captain, my captain. My childhood hero. Love that guy. @NucksPatsFan you the real MVP for sharing the article in full. Edited October 10, 2019 by CanuckGAME 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is one of those ones they should open up to everyone as a taste test of their product. Letters like this is genuine shouldn't be kept to a specific class of fan who pays for someones writing. It is a fine business model but not for important things like this. Let me paraphrase and apply that principle: "It infuriates me that people get paid for their work, especially if that work is important. My iPhone should be free because it is such a value to me." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HockeyHarry Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Tough crowd after a big Win and having named a new Canucks Captain. Must be Hockey season and mental health therapy time. Canuck Fans always so delightful. Win or Lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fecklund Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Someone should tell Nazzy it's not an "open" letter, when it's behind a paywall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not even about the "term" it's about the fact that this was a momentous occasion for ALL Vancouver Canucks fans, and for a former Captain to exclusively give privilege (sell???) an "open letter" regarding our latest Captain - which he must have known most of us won't be able to read? Wtf's the point? I hope someone leaks it. I'm not a fan of this at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fecklund Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 ahhhhh.... I get it now. Nazzy was pumping Messier's tires about how great a leader he was and how professional and team-first he was. Yeah I'd hide behind a paywall too if I insisted on saying something that stupid! carry on... lol 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you do your job for free? Will that be your advice to your kids, "Whatever you do son/daughter make sure you don't get paid for your work - especially if what you do is important."? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why should I pay for something that someone else posted that they didn't even write? And it sure as hell isn't like Nazzy's short on food and shelter. sooo......
