How will the Vipers do tonight?
ReplyDeleteMake your predictions, Who will win and what will be the final score?
4-2 final score... in Trail's favor if McKee shows up behind the bench and in Vernon's favor if Lomicky/Sparrow are in control.
ReplyDeleteIt is long overdue for Viper ownership to step up and quell the rumors. They never should have let this soap opera get to this stage. If McKee is still employed a statement that "he has stepped away from the team to deal with personal issues" would have been appropriate. If he is gone then please announce it and show some respect for Lomicky & Sparrow while they mop up the mess left by Mckee. This organization never surprises me with their lack of common sense.
Who cares? As long as these clowns own/run the team NOBODY should step foot into that rink on game day. You are not supporting the boys YOU are condoning Abusive & Bullying behaviour. Supporting the boys would be boycotting until John Glenn is removed from ownership.
ReplyDeleteTell that to the record crowds this season has brought in. The average ticket holder has no idea what's going on behind the scenes, they just want to watch an entertaining hockey game. They don't care who the coach is either.
DeleteI'm not saying you aren't right, but it's a silly statement that will never happen and you know it.
Maybe some accountability needs to happen with the players that are given chances over and over again. They are defensive liabilities yet get the most playing time. No accountability for certain players and killing the confidence of good players. Tired of watching the same thing over and over again.
DeleteIf you’re tired of watching the same thing over and over, then stop going to the games. No needs pessimists at any game.
