I actually know what you're referring to here. That was her? Hey, maybe I'm not as out of touch as I thought.

there was a story out there (with sources apparently) that the video game addicted prospect was Juolevi .. lasted an hour and was deleted after Marek came out and said it wasnt Juolevi

Marek should not have said anything without identifying the player. Either be a journalist or keep your access to yourself. Your job isn't to be buddies with a GM, it's to dispense information for public consumption.

To be honest, this is pretty unfair to any player who may have struggled as of late and now has to be speculated by their fanbase that said player is the gamer in question.

Totally agree BBB - Since when did 31 Thoughts become TMZ North?

Yeah, Marek should have identified the player if he was going to mention this. No need to post this without identifying the player and cause speculation.

Its especially comical that Marek (and his bum hole buddy puckdaddy) got on Botchford way back when when Botchford wrote about Joe Thornton saying ... in the direction of a media scrum ... that he would whip out his cock if he ever scored 4 goals lol

The fucking neck-twisting the "hockey guys" had to do in that situation was hilarious, and the reporters going after Botchford (while some did come to his defence, IIRC) was just doubly shitty. I know it's pretty much stupid to think that any MSM we consume is without favour or access considering those same media branches pay the league millions to broadcast their product and be their "partner" but it would be nice if those branches wouldn't go after the ones who still give impartiality a shot.

I think Marek is programmed to work with that retard Wyshyzzksinyi for podcasts. So he probably forgot to tone it up a notch with the new gig with Friedman.

Let's stop projecting what it will be and just... you know... let it be what it is.

It's an ESPN list, so naturally hockey doesn't exist.

And second of all, I call bullshit that LeBron James is more well known than Messi, Neymar, Federer, etc. in the world.



And I guarantee a LOT of people know who Lewis Hamilton is. Outside the US of course.
The only thing I can think of is that the NBA has grown quite a bit in China. I think it's the most followed pro sports league over there now.
