Anyone who watched that game could see how badly Karlsson was hurt. He was barely moving on the ice and any time he made a play it was a pass almost as soon as he touched the puck. He was 100% a liability and should’ve been pulled after the first shift.

You know what was worse than the missed calls? Debuer having Karlsson out there in the first place and not pulling Jones after the penalty shot when the Blues had outshot them 16 to 3 by that point in the second. But no, was definitely the refs missing calls that cost them this game... totally.

I agree, my point was more that the internet takes advantage of those seeking echo chambers and that younger generations who have grown up with it know how predatory and manipulative people on the internet can be while older generations are more ignorant and naive to these things. 

I agree, I think younger generations want to vote but because of the system they don’t. Between election day not being a federal holiday and Democrats nominating the same old establishment crap that kills a lot of their motivation to actually vote.

And 2 to 3 elections in a row that are landslide wins for progressives is all that’s needed to get changes in the political system that would favor the people (money out of politics, federal voting holiday, medicare for all) to the point that they would never consider a conservative vote again, outside of one policy…

If that were true though, we would’ve seen the Republicans get a lot more than they got done between 2016-2018. There’s still executive orders that can be passed, which is pretty much all Trump did, and it was mostly cutting back on what Obama did. That’s why they’re making such a big deal out of Trump considering…

Again though, what’s easier? Explaining to someone how vital their vote is, or convincing staunch Republicans that they’re wrong on policy issues when the majority of them are single policy voters (read: pro-life).

You’re missing the point. The incredible amount of time it would take to convince those type of people to come to your side would be better spent informing younger voters of how they and why they should vote, in my opinion. Because they already believe a lot of the more left leaning policies and don’t need to be…

His point is more that the older generations are much more prone to not changing their minds and would prefer to be in their echo chamber, which is exactly how people manipulate the internet to their advantage. So wasting your time with them isn’t worth it compared to generations that have grown up using the internet…

Yet it’s still better than completely ignoring the issue.

I believe even NASCAR has rules against that though. You can’t just swerve around cutting people off, you can make a single move, not multiple ones.

They do look behind them often, but you can also feel and hear the other horses. Especially when they’re right up on you the way these ones were because you can also feel how your horse reacts to the other horses near it, or in this case touching it.

I’m not sure he could have either, but if you watch the full replay, he cuts the horse back in so far that he bumps into 13, which is right along the railing. That’s a much bigger no-no than the first part in my opinion because at that point he had plenty of room to move either way.

Exactly, you can’t ignore the fact that it’s basically luck that there wasn’t a huge accident injuring multiple horses here.

Agreed, I really don’t get the argument of this article. Why is using replay such a bad thing if it gets the call right? If it’s beneficial to the sport why are you so against it?

His move pushing out wasn’t what got him dq’d in my opinion, it was the hard push back in to cut off 13 as he was clearly about to be passed. 

I actually saw this too, and wondered what the hell was going on. In the replay though, he clearly starts moving the horse out before there’s contact and then cuts the horse so far inside that it conveniently cut off the horse gaining on him. This is very clearly him cutting off the other horses and not just losing…

Firstly, while Prat was the one to officially object, that doesn’t mean the other riders didn’t object in any way to it.

That’s easy to say from the sidelines when your college career, and potential professional career, isn’t on the line.

Nope, I don’t see him pushing with his arm at all. I see it going with Pavelski down to the ice. I get why you think this happened, but it just clearly didn’t happen in my opinion because of how his arm reacts to Pavelski running into him. He didn’t jerk his arm to push him down, it “flowed” down with his body as…
