oh my lord the grammar nazis never go away. god forbid i spell somethign wrong. "teh internets is teh serious business...cant spell anything wrong herez". get the fuck over yourself and stop nitpicking shit now.
and the problem, which you still failed to see is that what tim had posted afterwards had nothing to do with your argument at hand. we were going on with what constituted instigating and how fighting shows you as a good leader trying to pump up your team. not consistency of calling penalties.
and excuse me for a moment while i take a second to be mr literal.
There's more than one way to show leadership and one of the ways is indeed finding a way to light a fire under your team's asses when no one else is.
so, what your saying is that crosby wasnt being a leader during the game?
if you opened your eyes, i also agree with tim about calls not being made or what have you due to the playoffs. get a clue. im done going over something so trivial with someone that doesnt have a clue. you have come to the point your doing nothing but trying to insult and sling mud instead of argue your useless point that you have seemed to lose track of. now regardless of previous statements, i will just give you a totally pointless benefit of the doubt and say that a team gains some motivation from a fight. BUT only if that fight was on someone that plagued you during the whole 60 mins of play. now, i said motivation. i wouldnt agree that it would necessarily light a fire under your teams' asses and make them play better or necessarily, harder. but, it would give them the satisfaction that a thorn was removed, so to speak, from their sides. and again, that ties into frustration. which again, you wont agree with me. a leader knows when and when not to react such as he did. after all, if you want to motivate your team, the end of the game is not the time. it wont help you 2 days from that point. the team would have totally forgotten about the end of the game and focused on that days' game.
and that is where your not seeing my point. and your not wanting to see my point. nor do i care anymore.
if you want to argue leadership with me, get in a leadership role, learn to play hockey, get away from being the "tv hockey player" that you are, then come talk to me. because you are also stuck in your one way mentality. otherwise, you would have understood where im coming from instead of just shooting down everythign i say without the attempt to see what is actually being explained. GG
as for the football info...i just threw that out there. no point was being made. just sharing useless info. nothing more, nothing less. nothing said i was a #1 fan. nor do i care that i spelled ruslans last name wrong. you know who i was talking about. so, my point got through. all i had said is that i follow two teams. the wings and the lightning. i dont go around with red wings garb, license plate, etc. as you said, i havent proclaimed myself as being a number one fan at any sport. you proclaimed me as that #1 guy.
p.s. all the mud slinging coming from someone that doesnt even know how the instigator penalty is assessed to a player.
nice try at looking it up online though. but still, you should have cross referenced it to see how it is assessed instead of just worrying about what determines a player from being suspended by it. i dont give a damn about suspending him. he will do just fine at taking himself out of the game by getting himself useless penalties as he did in game 5.
you dont get me, i dont get you. neither of us care what the other has to say. so, im gonna be the bigger man and not respond to flames back and forth. if you have something constructive to say, sure. but as of now, you have gone on the lower end and created this into a personal attack that im no longer going to feed.
