pavyaz19 1 Report post Posted March 27, 2008 I hate ESPN so much. The only time they recognize hockey is when they want to bash it. (the Roy's getting suspended). Why not report on Ovechkin's ridiculous year? I seriously hate them. I strictly use yahoo.com now for NHL (and all other sports) news. I only use ESPN.com for Buccigross's articles because he is the man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Opie 308 Report post Posted March 27, 2008 Sammy sucks. sammy definitely sucks. MMMM adding a lot to the discussion aren't you? Back to the topic at hand, does anyone know what Yzerman's contract with the Org is? How many Years? Is he a ufa(LOL) after the season? I am not worried about the leafs or anyone swooping him up, not that I would blame him for not wanting to wait behind a young (as GM's go) Holland, but just curious about the contract.

OsGOD 3 Report post Posted March 27, 2008 Some moronic intern at ESPN thought it would be funny to put that in there.... They have since been dealt with and job has been terminated Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Icteria virens 11 Report post Posted March 27, 2008 Saw this on ESPN.com and couldn't help but laugh. Apparently yesterday we resigned Stevie for one more year, time to bring down that banner! http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/teams/transactions?team=det For the late comers: ESPN had listed in the Red Wings Transactions for March 25th 2008: " Signed center Steve Yzerman to a one year contract." They have since corrected the error, but I was in high hopes that since ESPN is so in tune with the NHL that it must have been true....... alas Berry Melrose's mullet steps on the heart of Wing's fandom yet again you mean you get your hockey news from ESPN? just kidding Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Earthhuman 8 Report post Posted March 27, 2008 Oh no! Do you realize that someone who works for espn might be reading your post? You've now given them a new idea for a new hit show. Which will hold it's playoffs April thru June, on NBC, Versus, and FSN. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Copenhagen848 58 Report post Posted March 27, 2008 Thank God.....I personally think it's ridiculous when players retire then come back. No way Yzerman would do that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SouthernWingsFan 854 Report post Posted March 28, 2008 It never ceases to amuse me how much people in here get their panties in a bunch with the mention of ESPN. Ah well, I guess it is easy to feel this way when I usually just watch it whenever live games are on and I pay very little attention and barely care about in-depth commentary and such.

SouthernWingsFan 854 Report post Posted March 28, 2008 Do you like basketball, SWF? Not as much as hockey but yeah I like it. Prefer college over NBA, but the Hornets are doing extremely well where I am from right now so that has rejuvinated my interest in professional basketball. I just get a kick of how so many people take ESPN way, way, way too seriously in terms of how members in here get upset at them, that's all pretty much.
