martyrme19 73 Report post Posted July 23, 2007 So, I know that some jackass reporter from colorado published a book and in that book he wrote down what was being said that infamous night where Bowman squared off against crawfag. I have no idea how to find the book, nor would I ever purchase it because just like our governments drug campaign says, I dont wanna donate money to terrorist. So I was wondering if anyone here had any info on what was being said or any other details worth sharing. Just bored and thought i'd ask. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not a bad read at all, although it is a bit biased towards the Avs pointof view vis a vi the rivalry. I would quote directly from the book moer of what Crawford yellled at Scotty, but the LGW Mods would'nt like it as there are some very naughty words used.

BlakChamber 8 Report post Posted July 23, 2007 I have the book. Its actually much less biased than you'd think it would be. Dater does a good job. I can just imagine the travesty that book would have been if Woody Paige wrote it. Of course, I doubt he can read or write. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think Avs fans would like it because it would probably bring back to many bad memories, considering the rivarly ended with our famous 7-0 win.

GoWings1905 2,694 Report post Posted July 23, 2007 I'm reading "Blood Feud" right now and it has been great so far. I was expecting the worse when I saw that Woody Paige had contributed to it, but it's actually a terrific trip down memory lane from the glory days of the rivalry. Good read for both Wings and Avs fans alike. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drimo 0 Report post Posted July 23, 2007 Yeah I heard Blood Feud wasn't a bad book at all, I heard it was really good actually. And I heard it from Wings fan. I'm actually reading it right now and I'm about 40 pages from the end. It's been pretty good, although admitadly a bit biased towards the Avs since Dater writes about the Avs. The thing I like about the book is how he details the personal histories of some of the people involved, like McCarty, Bowman, and The Turtle. I didn't care much for his section on Yzerman because I felt Dater gave Yzerman a poor image in his book. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shanny is the man 0 Report post Posted July 24, 2007 OK, Here's an excerpt. Crawford: "You f>>>>>> old c>>t. Bowman: "For what/" Crawford: "For f>>>>>> Shanahan.....F>>> you, you old f>>>>>> loser. Later, Aaron Ward, also on the bench to Crawford: F>>> off. Sit down. And it goes on with a few more f-bombs from Crawford. After the transcript of the exchange, Dater writes, "Barry Smith, Yzerman and Draper look at Crawford as if witnessing a car crash. Dater then quotes Barry, who says: "We just wanted to let him (Crawford) go. I think at that moment, we knew we had them." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mwinnyatslc 0 Report post Posted July 24, 2007 I heard the same story, that Bowman didn't follow the bait. Also, I think the name "Crawfag" is kind of offensive and probably doesn't belong on the boards. Not to be too PC or anything, but it's offensive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
