Torts gets it!

Tortorella doesn't get shit. How he continues to have employment is beyond me.

He gets it! And now he is Lord Comander of team USA.

What exactly does he get? He doesn't understand the position of protest. He is basically saying if you're on my team, your rights granted under the First Amendment are taken away. He is saying if you're on my team and you try to express your rights, you will be kicked off the team because I don't agree with you. He's a complete fucktard and always has been. It's a fucking disgrace that HE is representing our country.

That is exactly what he is saying. He is the coach. It is his team. There are RULES.

What? I can't take selfies during O.T? What about my FEELINGS???

If you don't like the rules, then there is the door and don't let it hit you in the butt on the way out.

Are you not obsessed with people playing silly instruments?

Don't try to compare art with sports, you are better than that, I'm sure of it.

I'll bet it's harder to hit a major league pitchers fastball than playing instruments!

Why not? They are essentially the same. I enjoy a concert or play just as I do a sporting event. You pay money for a ticket. You dress up. It is played in acts. Everyone practices before playing before the masses. Talent is involved.

There is a huge correlation on why everyone was so hyped because PJ was playing Wrigley and Fenway, and it wasn't because of the natural acoustics of those joints.

Sporting event's are even more exciting because the outcome is an unknown. I wouldn't enjoy seeing multiple PJ concerts if they played the same set every night.

Sports is art.

Jason P

I played both football and marching band and both events took the same amount of commitment, practice, and execution. I had the same amount of nerves before playing in front of an audience. I don't know why people look upon each other activity so differently. Maybe because of the shackles of society?

I should protest!

What the f**k kind of statement is this?

Art is superior to sport? According to who? You I guess.

I prefer sport to art tenfold, however I'd never dismiss blowing into a flute or pretending to be some character on stage as silly.

If you don't appreciate sport, then fair enough, but just because you were a spaz and never could fully understand the value of it... don't shit on its significance for others that do. My family is a sporting family: I played college basketball and this year my son accepted a scholarship to play basketball at university as well. Outside of punching the clock and seeing/reading horrible news, sport has offered us- among countless positive other things- a lifestyle where we stay healthy, harm nobody, and escape.

And we dig music too. My kid plays the guitar.

Geez RG. You abstain from the boards for weeks it seems and then you come on here to spew something like that?

Is everything okay? If you need to chat about anything pm me.

Dumbest shit I've read from you so far. Rules are one thing. Don't go out drinking the night before a game. Show up to practice on time. Don't tweet during games. Check your equipment. Those are rules that affect the team and the game. Exercising your right to protest does not, in any way, shape, or form, affect anything on the ice. Torts is a fucking douchebag. He is now, always has been, always will be. PLain and simple.

Also, if I'm trying to make a point, the last person I wan't making videos supporting me is Jessie Ventura. I'm surprised to see he forgot his tinfoil hat in that video! I would put Ventura on even par with Chris Brown on people to defend you if I was ever accused of domestic assault.

Granted I loved his work in the WWF, Predator, and The Running Man ... the dude is now (has always been?) Looney Tunes (even though he doesn't have time to BLEED!)

Torts would put Ventura in a figure four leg lock before giving him the people's elbow

The Body gets it!

I'm sure if you search there is some stuff that is more dumb! I've almost 15K posts!

At least I'm not forced to root for Patrick Rapist Kane!

Oh wait, Kane is American. Fuck me.

Yah. Mathematics alone would suggest you've got some really good doozies in the catalogue of work that would make that post look like it was written by a genius.

Participating in sporting activities and watching them from the couch are far from the same thing. It's fandom that I hate, not sports.
It's not that I think athletic pursuits are not worthwhile, but the obsession my fat, lazy country has with their sporting events is pathetic. If you lived in Columbus, Ohio for awhile you might begin to understand where I come from. The amount of significance we attach to what are essentially kids games is staggering and appalling.
Hitting a major league fastball is equal to your average baseball fan in the same way that an excellent author is equal to a person reading a newspaper. Not at all.
Artists inspire us with ideas, feelings, expressions, wisdom, even ignorance.
Sure, athletes do inspire us, but simple admiration for talent is not in the same league.

I was on vacation engaging in athletic pursuits (hiking) and I came home to be surrounded by Cleveland Browns talk from couch-welded sports fans... Quite annoying!

My batteries are recharged and life is looking good, which is precisely why my gears are grinding with such force lol

Jason P

Am I a lazy douch when I watch McCready melt faces during concerts? Shouldn't I be melting faces?

Is Kid Rock a better role model then Joe Montana because Kid Rock is an "artist"??? Holy fuck!

Advertising agencies would disagree. Michael Jordan (an above average basketball player) has inspired more people then The Beatles.

I don't think showing up to the opera with your tuxedo and viewing glasses, perched in the balcony, and eating caviar is much better.

I hear what you're saying about the nacho eating, beer swilling, overweight fool yelling at the opposition, however respecting the talents of an accomplished athlete is not lower level existence.

I've got a few jerseys and I've got a bunch of PJ t-shirts and posters. I'm a fan of both. It doesn't make me a fool.

THE UNIVERSE!

It depends...
Do you get shitfaced every time and devote 2 or 3 days a week to sitting in front of the tv to watch him do it? Does every article of clothing relate to McCready and his colors? Do you hate the colors that represent his rival guitarist and forbid your kids from wearing them? Do you schedule your life around his facial melts and refuse to attend events that conflict? Do you pretend that all his leads are some great metaphor for the universal struggles of human life? I could go on, but that's enough of a list to determine douchiness or not lol
