I think it's a discussion of modern wartime propaganda. If it's not your cup of tea, have a coffee. Also... ruined.

Bills Maphia can ***** right off.

It's not an insult. In fact I'll agree. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/propaganda

He said "get in the game." Fans in that arena can "get in the game" but it takes extraordinary events like long winning streaks, playoffs, Eichel's return. Jack noticed and it bothered him and like a lot situations in life it only came out when passion was high.

I think Rivet went way too far... and he seemed to realize it when he said he doesn't know Jack outside of hockey.

Which is actually what they did when saying a reactor was on fire while simultaneously calling for the US to close the skies over the site before having to clarify it was an outbuilding that was burning.

It's self evident. Maybe you don't know what propaganda is.

Only long enough for it to cut out and ask for money.

There wasn't much pearl clutching when it went down.

You stand by the sentiment that I'm sympathetic toward Putin? I don't know why the poster thought it was propaganda. Other than of course it was. Ukraine would be dumb to not engage a national sports figure in the fight for hearts and minds. FTR Putin is a POS (almost Eichellian) who deserves a Stinger up his cancer ravaged ass.

I'm not. I just hope they are good enough to release some outrageous news about Putin, then issue a, We Bad It Didn't Happen.

It was hyperbole to make a point. Again, he wasn't wrong.

Hope Ukraine Ministry of Information is watching. This has been a master class in propaganda. Turns out the Pegulas are champions at something.

I do feel for Zelensky. You are right.

No one's covered in glory. Jack's a bum, he wouldn't let us profit from his name and image without compensation! Jack's a piece of ***** terrible person... "I don't know him outside of hockey."

Of course it is. Are we losing our minds? Challenging some bit of news out of Ukraine as possible propaganda isn't denying the "awful truth" of what's going on.

You should sit for a good bit for this. We don't need this rubbish here. I'd like to hear the poster's opinion. Of course there's propaganda on both sides.

I recall when Jack's appearance was not fair game.

Came back to call the Islanders game last night. coughRickcough

It's not a great look for Rob, Andrew or Craig. They're exposing themselves as current or former shills for the organ-eye-zation.

Jack's not a grownup?

Aren't all men of that age conscripted to enter military service? (ie, grab the nearest weapon and go)

But you like SOME people, and I feel honored to be one of them. Literally wrong? Yes. I'm sure it was louder when Skinner won that 10th game in a row in OT. But clearly Jack has had that comment squirreled away for a long time. He's bitter that the crowd in Buffalo is so lame. He's not wrong. It's not (necessarily) an insult. Passively sitting and watching is in the DNA. ("Traditional and knowledgeable.") So is the negativity.

Hate is never the answer. Only love is. Hate cannot lead to love. It's all we need.

Like fer sher.
