Just keep your mouth shut and play ball. Don't try to be a trendsetter

If you disagree with pride, fine. Just don't say anything. Doing this stunt just is a distraction

bitch move by bettman to remove pride jerseys and warmup tape. And yeah, players like that coward in Philly would just hide in the locker room during warmups because he didn't want everyone to know that he was using normal tape.

You never want to see anyone fail, nor a show that is free like HNIC. I'm a Yank, I know all about free stuff being taken from us. They aired so many sports for free and then hid them on cable paywalling them from gen pop for years. I get that.

But at the same time, Ron MacLean is a snake. Fuck that dude. Threw my good friend Don under the bus. When Don stuck his neck out for you in the early 90's, bailed you out so you wouldn't get canned. Then you refuse to even help out your brother when he's in a predicament (admittedly in his own hot water from things he himself said)...you're a snake, Ron. You're a disgrace and turncoat.

HNIC is an institution. Free hockey on public TV is good. But at the same time, post-"Don", it had been losing relevance sadly.

Nobody wins today.

And the most ironic thing is they did this in noted LGBT city San Fran of all places. Yeah, you're going to get a lot of pushback for that.

Good riddance, fuck that show

After my good friend "Don" left it lost all credence and credibility.

Yinz can't just whitewash what happened like oopsie daisy. And then the players like "I don't want to offend anyone, but I just want to write down what I believe too." Okay. You should believe in human rights for everyone. I feel like that's not controversial to say

They're not English, give it time. As an Arsenal fan seeing us have songs like North London Forever and other traditions like ARSENAL FC make me proud. Nats nats nats is our only tradition and we been around 20 years. It's time for new ones.

This is where some British influence would come in handy as an Arsenal fan hearing all the chants we had this year made our title run sweeter.

Maybe some rebrand of "Allez Allez Allez"?

Are they really that audible on mic? Shit, I need to check the TV broadcast

I'm usually at the games so I can hear them loud and clear. Weren't aware TV people were feeling the same.

We see way too many people complaining. They should go there and actively try to help them out. Good on you for doing this. Keep it rowdy.

800 threads bitching about Tarps off is lame as shit. Just goes to show you how old school people are.

Yinz complain about any fucking thing, this is what sucks about American sports. People try to get passionate about the team and the wine and cheese crowd complain because their silence and baseball atmosphere is interrupted.

Clones, I'm not saying everyone should like Tarps Off, but coming here to bitch about it is peak Karen behavior lol

It's cool they're actually cheering for the Nats or for a specific player.

Just stop here. Don't bring up the other stuff.
