The Whistler - 10:11am on 11/27/2007

organizers did not feel it was appropriate to eject the teams from the tournament,

Umm.. excuse me but, WHY NOT????

I can tell you that it’s unlikely that an eight year old would get hurt in a fight with their equipment on.

Mr Whislter… I don’t care if the boys were fully armored, getting hurt was not the issue of this wrong doing tongue wink
As for being surprised at this happening...nah, what can we expect our kids to do when they witness adults doing it all the time. It’s socially ingrained as acceptable and it’s a very sad thing to watch evolve in our society.

Anna, because I believe that women are equals, I would love for you to try!  That, and on the 29th of December, it will be four years since I produced a dead man.  I kinda got the twitch, and a desk job doesn’t cure that.

...and more importantly, it might be kinda sexy if you whooped me!  Never know until you try.

The Washington Post has a great opinions piece on this essentially wondering whether aspiring goons and enforcers deserve any less encouragement than aspiring keepers and goal scorers?
