At the risk of being banned, hunted down or at the very least flamed....
I was trying to figure out one day why so many Flyer "fans" hate other players. Not the Ty Domi's or Matthew Barnaby's of the league. The players whose job it is to be hated...but really hate the skilled players on other teams. Listen/read the boards...Ovechkin sucks, Malkin sucks, Nash sucks, Crosby F****** Sucks....over and over and over. And one of the prime reasons given for why these players suck? They don't fight. They wont fight...they only fight when....who cares!!!! These are some of the most skilled, best players in the world, not just the league...and you can add a lot of players to that list. I don't like Crosby perse. I think he has an entitlement attitude and that he gets away with a lot of cheap stick work...but look who is considered the ultimate Flyer...Bobby Clarke. The man who broke Karlamov's ankles. And got away with it....
How about we try a new standard. I don't like... instead of Sucks. Isn't a two way player...really killed us in the playoffs...always gets hurt when needed....but lets face it...if they are playing in the NHL and racking up points and $$$$, they don't suck.
