Add another reason why I love Bertuzzi, he's a bad ass

[purrrnella]

So, going back to Bert and the original topic. Yes it was immature, but it's also hilarious, and if the Predators are petty enough to have this affect them, even better!

I haven't been able to find anything on it??? I tried Twitter, but i don't really know much about twitter so I`ll probably never find it on there

"Correlation must be two too many consonants"

How does that even remotely make sense.

The relationship between the two comments must be too many speech sounds for me to mentally grasp?

Ill make it simpler to understand...

I used a big word to contradict the fact that you didnt call me a bandwagoneer. Figured you didnt catch it cause the name for it is CORRELATION and since its a big word you wouldnt understand what it meant.

[Hack & Whack Rule!]

that ping pong table might of had a red wing germs on it,so i am glad that bertuzzi took it,would not want the preds players to catch something before they take game 4 tomorrow

And yet, living in Trashville, people aren't afraid of catching something from their "sister-cousin".

I agree it has it's funny side to it. I also agree it's immature. I mean it's over and done with, move on. Leave it all on the ice for Pete's sake. I mean I guess Nashville could retaliate by barring the Red Wings from practicing on their ice before game 5 and tell them to bring their own ice with them. :shrugs:

I mean it looks like Bertuzzi & the Red Wings have moved on from him ending a guys career so I don't understand why this whole "we are still mad at weber/nashville" thing hasn't been squashed.

While the preds probably recognized this for what it was, a harmless prank, you're being ridiculous by suggesting they take away ice time. I see why everyone in this thread has been giving you s***; your reactions are just too good to ignore. In fact, Your overblown reaction is the exact thing Bert was trying to get from the preds.
As for your second comment, that is so stupid that it doesn't deserve a response.

I haven't seen any more information than what's in the original post. But I'm sure it will come up in Bert's next interview.

Yeah it's kind of obvious I'm not really expecting ice time to be taken away. Come on now...

Why is the second statement stupid? He sucker punched and ended Steve Moore's career. I think he should have been permanently removed from the NHL. You however praise him and expect him to keep being a goon.

I understand what correlation means.

I do not however understand what "two too many consonants" has to do with the word?

Correlation is not two consonants. Consonant is not even a description of the word correlation.

You used the word consonant in your sentence as a noun.

Sorry but you butchered the usage of that word and I called you out on it. Please stop acting smarting than you really are

To put it simply, Bert's done his time; changed his approach to the game, and still feels terrible about what happened. Weber on the other hand, did something Just as malicious. Yeah, you can argue that, unlike Bert, it was in the heat of the moment, and luckily didn't have any lasting effects, but it was in the same vein. Not to mention it happened less than a week ago!

Actually Nashville can't bar the wings from practicing on their ice before a game. Couldn't even imagine what would happen if they tried.

Him doing his time is your opinion. I for one do not think ending someone's hockey career with a sucker punch attack should ever have a "time served" option.

Hell Weber didn't even injure Zetterberg and most Red Wings fans want him dead and probably always will from what I've read.

I'm just trying to understand the two is all.

Oh and Bert changing his game? That's a laugh! He still sucker punches people, aka at the end of game 1 on Gaustad who had already been separated Datsyuk and up against the glass with a ref.

[AceInTheSleeve]

You're delusional. Bringing up the moore incident is a ridiculous way to defend webers actions at the end of game 1

[King Crane]

Bert being a boss? Time to break out the .GIF again!

"Today, Predators players were using the ping pong tables in the hallway outside of the locker rooms. Todd Bertuzzi saw this and then told them if they wanted to play they needed their own table, then folded up the table, and rolled it into the Wings locker room."

SMARTING???

Two too many consonants meaning a word with more consonants than say LOSER. Big words with multiple consonants like intelligence are TWO TOO MANY CONSONANTS IN A WORD FOR YOU TO UNDERSTAND.

Get it?

[AceInTheSleeve]

This topic actually reminds me more of this video

[Jeff6851]

Bro we have a perfectly good thread about this. Still love it

Fixed.

Whoops. Mods can delete this.

My bad.

Whoops a typo. Obviously meant smarter, but still only a misspell not a misuse of a word.

You could have said "Correlation must have too many consonants for you to understand" but even then the word is not entirely made up of consonants so it still remains misused. You said "two too many" as opposed to what other word. You said it had 2 more consonants than say another word? I'm still baffled by the whole thing. I think you tried to sound intelligent but botched it right out of the gate.

I'm sorry you just didn't fully grasp the English language growing up.

Im not teaching english as a second language am I?

Correlation means, "IN RELATION TO SOMETIHNG".

You said I wasnt a bandwagoneer but you did call a kid one because they enrolled on this board after they won in 08.

The CORRELATION is that if I was having this conversation when I was 18 I would have been called a bandwagoneer because of my age and when the Wings had last won the cup.

THAT IS THE CORRELATION.

Now on to you. You didnt seem to comprehend that when you said that I wasnt a bandwagoneer.

There for I said CORRELATION is a word with TWO TOO MANY CONSONANTS. That means it was a long word with TWO MORE CONSONANTS than you can comprehend and had nothing to do with the word itself. It only meens that you seemingly cant engage in even semi-intelligent conversation which proved my original point.
