Comments for Fire Bettman http://www.firebettman.com For the love of the game. Sat, 04 Jul 2009 03:26:15 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.1 Comment on Boooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!! by SSNarwhal http://www.firebettman.com/videos/boooooooooooooooooooooo/#comment-57482 SSNarwhal Sat, 04 Jul 2009 01:28:26 +0000 http://www.firebettman.com/videos/boooooooooooooooooooooo/#comment-57482 Bettman is a loser and hockey has been in a spiriling downward losing sport with him at its head. Speaking of heads. . . where are the heads of the ownership who supposedly have the power to hire and fire the dunce. It time to pull them out of the sand and get rid of this guy before he destroys the game and its traditions (especally its Canadian origins), something most American simply do not want. If they had not loosened up and let the players have some say in who would win the Stanley Cup, it would have the been most boring spring in history. Penalties that no one can make any sense of, penalities that injury players, but are never called, multiple penalties against one team so they can't get back into the game, or against the other side, so they can get back into the game. Its really discouraging to see the depths NHL officiating has descended. But then I suspect they are follwing orders from on high to hold on to their jobs. Note: from the Comissh to Playoff Officials: Penguins must win or you will officiating in Moose Factory next season!

No doubt, he's talented (that does NOT make him the best). No doubt, the Pens played a better game 7. If we're going to pick a poster child, how about one with some class? OR, highlight some TEAM effort in this TEAM sport known as hockey. I can't hate on the Pens--I'm glad the rest of their lineup finally got a little recognition (kudos to Max Talbot for being the only goal-scorer in game 7). And yes, the calls (or lack of) were terrible BOTH ways, and we all know who we can thank for that. But so what if the Wings have won a lot of cups lately? Does anyone else dare recall the "Dead Wing" days. If it's your team, can you honestly say you want them to lose because they have "too many" championships in the last few years? Every team wants to win the cup. Every year. Period. It can’t be just Wings’ fans that are tired of hearing about “poster child” Crosby? No doubt, he’s talented (that does NOT make him the best).

Is he aware he can improve his public perception by simply moving a team to Hamilton? Except in Phoenix I suppose. I fully expect a team in Vegas now, after watching that steaming pile of Awards Show. I hate the idea, and I hope Bettman is fired before that can happen, but all the signs are there. Phoenix will limp along 1 or 2 more seasons, then they'll pack up and move, no questions asked, no lawsuits, no Balsillie, No Canada.
