Look at Lamanna's stats, good regular seasons and a playoff performer too. Since he signed with the Vipers you would think he would have been given the chance to start the season in Vernon. Just another example of the incompetence we see on a day to day basis.

Just for a moment, think. Maybe, just maybe, the player chose not to come to vernon. For all we know he wanted to play in the east but had no offers. When he got an offer he may have chosen to take it and not come to Vernon.
It seems this blog has become a bashing site. There is always much more to the story than we ever know. The assumptions people continually make are just plain ludicrous.
Maybe it was Vernon. Maybe it was coaching. Maybe it was management. Maybe it was the player. Maybe it was the advisor.
But no. Let's just bash management because that is easy and we can't get over the fact that the team has owners that aren't Duncan.
I am not related to the team in any way. Have been a fan for many years and just find these bitch sessions to be getting very old.
What if. Maybe, just Maybe, we try to look at things differently and maybe with a positive spin from time to time.
I will be taking a break from reading this blog for a while. The negativity is just beyond a joke.

Wonderfully said. I’m with you. I can understand disappointment with a losing season, but this ‘fire everyone’ griping is getting ridiculous. Maybe, just maybe, players are reluctant to be here because of the poor attitude of the fan base (?). Good to see there are others promoting positivity.

JUST A THOUGHT... yes, well said. I am back on my meds now and wish to turn my attitude around. You provided the wake up call. Thanks, have a good Christmas & an even better New Year.

Just A Thought.....Excellent Overview...

Geezer....I did look at Lamanna's stats..

1) Did not average a point a game in the OJ
2) Only played 39 of 56 regular season games last year
3) Played only 12 games so far this season, none in the last month.
4) Maybe just maybe there are some health concerns with Lamanna ?
5) Perhaps the Geezer's comments are those of Incompetence, we see on a day to day basis !

Perhaps comments on how to help the team as a positive would be in the right direction. I have scene some positives with the team we currently have and being positive as fans might help in better results in the ice. Go vipers go

Just wondering what the "POSITIVES" are that you have seen?
