Yeah, I am surprised he didn't take a year off to relax. I thought he'd be on ESPN for a year, like all the football coaches do, then go back to coaching.

I can't believe this. I mean I believe it, I guess, but come on. Arrest the guy?! Sheez, it's embarrasing enough 2 strangers walked in on him & saw him in the act. But to arrest him, announce his name publicly, and worst of all PUT HIM ON THE SEX OFFENDERS LIST??!!   Is a bike 1 step away from pedophilia?! Is that the natural progression? Internet porn, sex with bike, pedophile getting caught on Dateline.

I would guess he was f'ing where the bike seatpost goes, but I dunno.

Actually "most' people around here agree they have been dirty hits. As for Clarke, in years past yes. He recruited players like that (I think we were the last NHL team to eventually have a Russian. It was only a couple years ago, he refused to sign them & that style of play). But he was fired last season, and now is only part of the team in title only (VP of Operations or something). Paul Holmgren is GM & rebuilt this seasons team with alot of turnover.

As for penalties, I don't believe in fining teams or coaches. It doesn't do much. You'd have to fine a coach like several hundred grand or the team a few million for it to have an impact. Which they'd never do. $25,000 doesn't do anything. Withhold their draft picks. You're right though, they'd never do it, but I think it would have a better impact than a measely fine.

Yeah, that was a cheap shot on Lindros, but legal. Sucks that it basically ended his career.  He was never the same player again.

Going for it on 4th down in the 4th quarter while they were up 42 points?!

whatever

That show got cancelled?! I remember hearing alot of hype behind it, and supposedly it was pretty good. I think what hurt it was it & 30 Rock have a similar concept (behind the scenes of a television series), and NBC chose to 'push' 30 Rock by placing it on Thursdays, leaving Studio 60 hanging out to dry on Mondays or Tuesdays or whatever.
