The point of celebrities going public is to eventually make it a non-issue like it should be. The fact that there are ZERO current or former NHL'ers that have come out proves that it's still doesn't have the acceptance level it needs to.

The injury https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qB-qEKI37eY&feature=youtu.be

apparently yes, she thinks she needs to be an advocate because she likes women Or she thinks she can use her celebrity status in a positive way and make more of a change than your average person would be able to.

Acceptance and approval are 2 different things. She'll always be Shadowcat/Kitty Pride & Treena Lahey to me!

You are completely clueless if you think people don't care/gossip about the personal lives of players. There's even a reality show (Hockey Wives) about this very thing. The players aren't simply Winnipeg Jet A, Winnipeg Jet B and so on, they are part of the team and community (even moreso in small markets like Winnipeg) so people do get emotionally invested in them on & off the field.

The back-up to Kohlert (#88 Davis) is also new to the roster this week.

The Dirty was started by an American. Each city has it's own page so it's definitely not just a Winnipeg thing.

Dude!!! Waiting for season to be over to do Homeland marathon - no spoilers please! LOL sorry, no more spoilers from me!

As expected: SportsCentre ✔ @SportsCentre JUST IN: Erie County District D.A. announces Patrick Kane will not be prosecuted on rape allegations

On a related note, a Native artist had come up with this re-designed Chicago Blackhawks logo a few years ago, and it's popping up again on social media (it's done this a few times). While Chicago's name/logo isn't nearly as offensive as other teams, I'd be on board if they ever went with a design like this one:

They must have stolen the idea from Homeland... the CIA on the show just blew up a plane in mid-air last week!

Way to set the bar high!

Pretty good read. I remember seeing a lot of those matches (at least the ones earlier in Royce's career - the article kind of skips from 2005 to 2013) but always got the feeling Royce was happier being a big fish in a small pond rather than hit the road and try to make a real career out of it. Of course I don't know his reasoning for it, but I always felt he had the talent & could have been bigger.

They've got themselves in a dilema with the Fox contracts. They are obligated to put on so many shows (on top of their PPV's) that they need a huge roster. They can't just cut a bunch of guys because then they can't meet their obligations to Fox. The roster is to a point that it's hard even for the die-hards to keep track of. IMO, they were better served keeping the WEC around as a feeder league. Guys like Pettis, Faber, Cerrone and Benson Henderson all made their name their before they got to the UFC.

Putting Davis in gives me a reason to watch the game other than being a glutton for punishment!

That was also his 1st fight after getting out of prison so they definitely weren't going to put him in there with the champ right away. Also, just because Tyson wiped everyone out (for the most part), doesn't mean they were no names, or weren't very good. Ronda Rousey is going through the same thing right now. Nobody will remember who she destroyed, with a couple exceptions, just that she was amazing.

Nowhere near 5-7 months, it was 7 weeks. Kane got hurt at the end of February and was came back late April.

2-3 months, minimum, is what I read.

You were also told not to eat paint chips but we can all see how that turned out.

Anthony Crispino, is that you? Did ya hear disss??Also Ballard was around late 80s and died early 90s I think. ******* punk kids. He died in April 1990 but he was still involved with the team until the very end.

This is pretty much me, except I really never checked in again until recently. I "graduated" to mma. My kid's getting old enough to watch wrestling now, so I'll watch some with him. I really don't know much about what's happened between the attitude era and now. I have tickets to the show here in December. Real case of deja-vu watching my kid turn into a huge wrestling fan. Same here (minus the kid getting me back into it). Left wrestling when the Attitude era died & MMA really took off (I was always an mma fan, it just didn't compete for my viewing time as there were only events every couple months at best). I check in now & again just to see what's going on but I can't remember the last time I watched a full raw or ppv or went to a live show.

More irony is that Paul Heyman warned Vince not to allow it... now with his association with Lesnar, he's benefiting from it!

You don't think the WWF was almost all squashes on Saturday mornings as a kid? I'm not sure I would call SD Jones, Iron Mike Sharp or Barry Horowitz 1st class talent.
