   Dude, give it a rest. There are bad people in every profession. You don’t need to denigrate someone else to make yourself look better.

   “In the current climate of sports criminality, we can really admit any further discussion of closing Gitmo?”

   Wait. What?

   I’m pretty sure it was a joke about so many criminals coming out of the sports world that closing any prisons, even Gitmo, would cause uncontrolled overcrowding.

   Man, explaining a joke pretty much takes all the humor out of it, eh?

   Any chance we can get the Richmond Renegades to change their name and logo? I was thinking it would be fitting if they changed to the Richmond Pit Bulls.
   That shot wasn’t too close to home was it?

   You hear less about hockey infractions in the media because you hear less about hockey in general … a point this blog endlessly hammers like a five-year-old.

   The NFL suspended Vick for two reasons: lying and gambling. Not for the dogs themselves. Interestingly enough, the only time the NHL can make the papers beyond the back pages is when they a) decide to cancel an entire season or b) on the heels of that lost season, find themselves mired in gambling news of their own.

   Keep on trying to pretend that the largely white population — wait, I’m sorry, your term was two-parent families — that plays hockey is better than the largely black population that plays basketball and football.

   P-Mac, you’ve given us an unprecedented and engrossing line of investigative inquiry: that significant criminality exists in hockey but simply is covered up by the sport’s deficit media. Promise, I’ll get right on it; I have insiders contacts in the sport that can aid. In the meantime, as our blog strikes you as all too often merely the racist ramblings of pre-juveniles, we obviously will be losing you as a reader; surely you can’t continue your patronage — what would that say about your online reading habits?

   The number 300 is nice and vague. Do you have this number broken down by charge — attempted murder, dogfighting, DUI, domestic abuse, assault? How about by player — does this number include Pacman Jones just once, or all five times he has been arrested since he left college? Does this include players who have simply appeared in the league at least once since 2000, and may have found handcuffs after leaving the league? Do you have the same numbers for the NHL, NBA, MLB, and MLS during that time period?

   Try not to forget that in that same time period — “since the year 2000″ — hockey seems to be the only sport where criminal charges have been considered, twice, for actions performed during the game, as part of the game.

    Both the NFL and the NBA couldn’t be less worthy of attention.

    Have to agree with Rage about your post…, plus there are a number of character people in the NHL, there are a number of players and ex-players that have gotten themselves in trouble with the law, etc.
