  1. It seems pretty obvious to me that everybody scrambling at this point just to cover their asses i’m also of the opinion that they think they had this thing bottled up however when the case was reopened the **** royally hit the fan
  2. cue the softball responses.......
  3. let me rephrase.... why is this so difficult? redirect: Why am I so insensitive?
  4. Of course they are. And they probably will. But that's not what I'm saying. What I AM saying is, the Flyers franchise making a social justice decision on a political matter, i.e. Kate Smith, is not the same as the personnel team making a decision on a player based on alleged criminal conduct. why is this so hard?
  5. I don't think so. Again, see Billy Tibbetts. Not that Tibbetts is an example of this, but sports franchises will tolerate a lot if it means they will win games. See Ray Lewis and Kobe Bryant
  6. if they don't know how many sexual assaults are "unreported", how do they determine percentage that are?
  7. The Kate Smith issue has everything to do with "franchise" management, not the team itself. The Flyers decided to acquiesce to the the public under societal pressure, which I think was ridiculous. In the case of Hart they granted him leave due to him being the subject of investigation. Societal pressure has nothing to do with it. If he gets cleared, is under contract, and can win them hockey games, he will be back between the pipes. They won't care about society (see Billy Tibbetts)
  8. the Kate Smith issue has nothing to do with players. For clarity, I think that issue is BS
  9. As pointed out by another poster, the Flyers have a couple of examples of players who were MORE than accused of the same type of thing, and they still got a chance to play for them. I personally think they enough about the situation that it prompted them to find, and prepare Errson to take Harts position. You can't blame them. They have no idea what the outcome will be. It seems pretty obvious though, if they had information indicating Hart was "innocent", their approach would be different. Based on his contract status, I agree he will not play in Philly again. But if he is cleared, another NHL team will take a chance on him. Wins matter more than real life ethics
  10. There are three types of lies…. LIES! DAMNED LIES! and STATISTICS
  11. Yeah about that…… I think Hart is screwed!
  12. It’s pretty obvious your intent is just to argue for the sake of argument. Since you chose to resort to childish insults, I will move on good luck with your crusade
  13. @hmc687 let me also say this, if the opinions of the people on this forum mattered in the slightest to franchises like the Flyers, Chuck Fletcher’s dumb ass would’ve be gone at the end of his first season chip Kelly would’ve never been hired and both of the offensive and defensive coordinators, for the Eagles would’ve been fired after game five of this NFL season and even more so if the opinions of us on this for mattered, Ristolainen would’ve never been brought here and would’ve been out of here after about the first warm-up of pre-season
  14. No it isn’t. The eagles fired Chip Kelly because he sucked as an NFL coach Fletcher was fired because he was horrible at his job it appeares you spent a lot of time d eloping that post. Sorry, it was too long to read. I stopped after Fletcher if anything I post in this forum has any negative impact on any professional athlete or celebrity, that person should get another job. The only place my opinion has any bearing in anything, is if I stop spending any money on tix, swag, or programming. And that impact is minute at best if you want to glorify yourself by thinking you have an impact on matters such as this, go right ahead. You won’t change my opinion in the slightest
  15. For me, I try to discern what isn’t actually being reported, or what is logical I don’t think it’s logical, if this was a money grab of celebrities, that the investigating agency would close the case, only to reopen it several years later. The reopening is what hits me the most. A police department usually behaves in this manner when its faces significant repercussions because someone screwed up royally…..no pun
  16. The feelings thoughts and accusations made by unknown people on a hockey forum has no, ZERO, impact on those involved. No damage is occurring by what any of us think. The flyers have taken no action against Hart. So this is just an overly emotional response by you, because you want your star goalie back on the ice to your second statement, where you say you’ll wait before making accusations… I find it interesting how hard you are arguing on Harts behalf. It sounds an awful lot like your are accusing the victim in this case
  17. I mean, try reading it. There’s plenty of info out there
  18. hell Yes! Scott Laugthon is Jon SIms mentor
  19. Trade him now. His value will never be higher
  20. the Flyers are used to having players with that skill set
  21. Regardless of outcome, I hope the Flyers just move on. They have a team to build. The guy isn’t there. Next man up. If he gets cleared, and I have a feeling based on all that I’ve read that he won’t, they can try to move him for whatever he’s worth at the time
