Because the systems, by and large, have worked for hundreds of years without, say, 600,000 people dying in a civil war before they get fully implemented.

Paul Kelly’s excellent book on the saga will tell you far more than that file ever will, and will show you that it was a domestic matter.

America isn’t responsible for freaking everything that happens. Other countries have their own political cultures.

I really hope he texted Steve Simmons a picture of him, the fabled hot dog vendor, and the cup.

Because you can do fun things with this.

Put a logo in the centre and some ads to make it look like a rink. Make it bigger or smaller. Make it whatever colour you want.

I’m guessing Ditto tastes like soylent.

Born 87, Blue Jays in the 1992 World Series.

FC Wichita’s supporter section is adorable.

The Fedorov one was bascially the biggest middle finger possible to Detroit; it had a gigantic escalator clause if the team he played for made the conference finals, which didn’t really matter for Carolina..

Say what you want about Snyder: He only wrecked his team’s roster a few times, not it’s cashflow. #VoteLoria

Pretty much.

Rovell’s at least bad tweeting as a sheild, Reilly’s doing it as a sword.

This times 100. I remember someone doing it alone and wearing an expensive watch to a hearing that they had forgotten to declare....

It was already losing some steam before that, good move to cash out a bit before it’s finally dead.

The political shtick was funny for the first Trump debate, after that it just got stupid.

Can there be one hockey related happening without a post like this?

The Leafs would demand it, similar to how they (and Buffalo) influenced other teams away from putting a team in Hamilton. But there isn’t any set in stone policy, that would contravene anti-trust laws.

They aren’t franchises of one company, they are multiple franchises operating in concert. Only MLS is like that, and

Along with every stupid porn reference he made in his first 10 years of column writing.

There are no franchise exclusivity zones. They’d be illegal under Canadian and American anti-trust legislation. Issues like this have been decided on a case by case basis in the past (LA got 50% of Anaheim’s expansion fee, for example)

The issue for Montreal would be splitting the media market rather than straight

The relocation fee would have to be massive, because (like the expansion fee), I’d guess Montreal will get a pretty high share of it.
