I have been following him.Now that I think of it he's my favorite player I guess.I thought him standing in front of the goalie was genius.How many people think of something like that where the league needs to change the rules mid playoff game?Thats hilarious.He seems to be the only entertaining guy in the league.

Sports is entertainment and a some mild mannered shots at a guy over his girlfriend is good for fan interest.The NBA was never as popular as when Dennis Rodman was doing all that crazy shit.This is nothing in comparison to him.

The league is actually suspending a guy for saying another player got his sloppy seconds?How ridiculous is that?If there is a problem between the two players hockey certainly has avenues where it can be settled on the ice.

If we are talking about this how can it be bad for the NHL?

I never said suspending him was bad for the NHL. I think the NHL was actually trying to stop anything from being settled on the ice. It's one thing to take a shot at the guy who is dating your ex, but saying "sloppy seconds" is over the line.

Comparing hockey players and basketball players (or football players) is like comparing apples and oranges. I mean, like comparing blacks and whites. Doing stupid publicity stunts seems commonplace for football and basketball players, there's a bit more of an "elitist attitude" for hockey players. Not saying that is good, but that is the state of the Bettman administration. The assumption is that these guys love the game for the game, not for the money they get and they certainly don't need to have the sideshow for publicity sake.
