Keeping in the current spirit


In light of some current fan posts I have read.

Star-divide

I have a few recommendations for the Blackhawks.

1. Get rid of the Indianhead.  Change it to a turban, hammer and sickle, or crescent and star.  You know, something less offensive than the Indian head.  I think they could fill the UC if the Indianhead was gone.

2. Toews.  Send Toews to Rockford.  He really needs to work on his shot.  He didn't score on all his shootout attempts this year and if they want a cup he has to score in the shootout

3. Hossa.  He is signed for 20 years and can't even lead the team in points?  WTF!  No hat trick yet either,  What a waste.

4. Eager  He either needs to fight or we need Koci back.  You cannot win unless you fight.  Really, this is a fact.

5. Duncan Keith and Brian Campbell need some serious skating technique lessons.  Bring back that speed skater guy.   If they didn''t skate so poorly, Huet and Niemi would have twice as many shutouts.  The D sucks.

I think this is it, but I'm sure there are more.

This is a true fact

The Hawks are 1 in 7 teams left without a hat trick. Florida has four players— count em, FOUR— that have had hat tricks! So does Vancouver, and one of them— that stud Burrows— had hat tricks TWICE.

Scuse me while I go buy myself Panthers and Canucks jerseys.

I’ll sell you my Canucks third jersey. It’ll be worth a lot when they win the Stanley Cup. I can also cut you a great deal on a bridge in London.

All right, come on, dummy, you won the game. Come on. Pick up your trophy.

nope, I'm not buying it.

That bridge is in Lake Havasu now, and probably covered in coyote fans.

I forgot #6

Slap shots. Need more slap shots.

Everyone knows when you have an open shot always fire the big back scratcher. It is the most accurate shot of all.

Grant Fuhr? Yep

I still think that a goalie scoring should be ranked above a goalie fighting.

Goalie Fights are cool

But what Roy’s kid did was nothing short of a raping.

and exemplifies the unique qualities of this medium.

Kane

…hogs the puck. All that skating around with it, and now he shoots more instead of passing all the time? Selfish, selfish, selfish. Rockford-bound.

the idea of the hawks getting rid of the best logo in sports

is as assinine as having the Braves, Indians, or any other old team change their logo because someones was o-ff-ended.

American’s get offended too fucking easily these days. Seriously when did everyone become so thin skinned and hire greedy lawyers.

Hell why were at it. Let’s make notre dame change there mascot, the depection of a drunken leprachaun is totally offensive to irish people. and syracuse should have to change their mascot, its offensive to WASPs. No more New England Patriots, american displays of patriotism are offensive the shitheads.

Oh, oops, I forgot, all those teams have mascots of white people, reverse racism is the rule of the day now in America. Sorry, I forgot, I’ll rescind.

And while Anahiem returns to the locker room, Todd Bertuzzi is cuffed and returns to the squad car.

Yes I know

Its tongue in cheek.

it still inspired a brief diatribe. sorry.

There are a lot of reason why the Blackhawks’ should keep their logo, but the one you stated here is just a lazy arguement.

All the teams you picked are indeed mascots of white people, but it was generally selected by the people who are portrayed in the mascont (as in an American used Patriots, the Fighting Irish name was attached when most of the team was in fact Irish, don’t know about Syracuse as I thought they changed their name to just The Orange). Now for it to be reverse racism, it would need to be a Native American owner creating a mascot called the Fighting Irish.

From the man who calls "Apaches" games

I’m the high school announcer at all our games here in our little town (pop. 750), and we are the Apaches. Tonight we played the Redmen from another little town.

We’re waiting for the PC police to come and arrest us all.

#7

Trap. Run the trap

Much more exciting than our current style. Who doesn’t want to see 1-0, 2-1 games every night?

Use the UC to our advantage

Shorten the length of the opponents bench. Will lead to lots of Too Many Men on the Ice penalties.

The past is for cowards and fools....
