But I really don't see the point in bringing up political crap in TOT. Or, was that attempt to turn TOT into P&R?
Still stirring the pot?



Funny guy.

I know you don't give a damn about hockey. The only reason you started this thread was to "stir the pot". It's not enough that Trump is taunting Canada, you just couldn't resist the urge to try and rub it in after the US beat Canada in a preliminary game. This thread was political from the get-go.

But hey, I'm glad you did start the thread. It worked out very well, very well indeed.

Way off base there Patrick, read the post again, all I did was congratulate the US Hockey team.
I had a pretty lengthy response typed up but, deleted it. I won't be trying to turn TOT into a P&R for your benefit.

Every game that got Canada into the preliminaries mattered. Are you saying Canada is always in the preliminaries ?

Why do you keep beating this dead horse? The tournament was limited to four teams... Canada, USA, Sweden, Finland. Each team only played three games apiece to determine who played who in the final/championship game. If you wish to refer to those three games apiece as "preliminaries", fine... but the fact that Canada lost to the US in the "preliminaries" did not matter, as Canada then beat the US in the actual game that mattered... the final/championship game. Comprende?

There you go again Patrick.

"Political". "Serves no purpose". "No minds will be changed". "Discussion won't help".

Hell no, discussion won't help.

What doesn't help are weaklings who are scared to discuss. The liberals, because they can not justify or defend their ruse.

Patrick, are the forum Politics/Religion political members any different from our Congress ?

According to Patrick, the final game to determine the championship, does not matter.
