I think he still is in the 'Dan Murphy' role for Flames games on Sportsnet West...

when he does those intermissions sitting between 2 random flames beat reporters I cant stop looking away from his inflated thighs in slacks ... its disturbing ... 15 pounds of meat in a 5 pound bag

sportsnet has gotta give him a wardrobe allowance increase

Oh man, that visual is definitely worth a rep

My point exactly if Avery would want this type of name calling to stop let him drop the gloves or anyone else who gets called the same. if you want it stopped do something about it .

So if simmonds doesn't want bananas thrown at him he should go kick the ass of every fan who does it.

I didnt see simmonds making a big deal of anyone throwing the bannana just the press maybe you know something that the rest of us dont.If another player threw a bannana at Simmonds i'm sure he would fight him and make him regret his actions. You really cant do anything about what fans say so your comparing apples and oranges dopey.

It appears NHL is limited to $2,500 fine per the CBA, but for perspective: Kobe Bryant fined $100k, Joakim Noah $ 50k last ssn for same slur

Just curious: If Simmons calls Avery a pussy rather than a British cigarette, is anybody up in arms (other than the SPCA?!?)

Edit: Can't forget PETA.

No definately not what if he called him a woman would there be an article written?

transcript of Colie/Simmonds hearing has been leaked

Colie: "Wayne, you ... of all people ... ought to have known better!"

Simmonds: "What do you mean? ... "of all people?"

Colie: "Shannyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!"

 

[puckhead]

a homophobic black person is no better or worse than a racist gay person.
that being said, on the ice.... ANYTHING goes. I don't have a problem with this.
(yes, there's the social aspect where we should all be nice people, but hockey is war)
wasn't it Avery who made comments about Jason Blake's ongoing cancer treatments?

on a lighter note:

 

[lasgop8]

Avery is a bitch and anyone who sticks up for him has no clue on how hockey is policed. Ooops i said bitch i hope i didnt offend any dogs.

If every gay man in the world got upset at the the fact that faggot is used your going to have a hard life.

Pretty much every gay man does have a hard life, because in addition to all of the bullshit they have to put up with that includes but is not limited to condemnation to Christian Hell, even here in the United States of America, they are not given equal civil rights.

And yet here we have Sean Avery, the only active NHL player who sticks up for that movement. Civil rights is bigger than hockey (...but it's close). And despite the fact that Sean Avery once continued playing a playoff game with a lacerated spleen and got an assist, his willingness to be that singular voice among the NHL players for gay rights is the most courageous thing he has done.

If all is fair in love, war, and hockey, then some of you need to re-evaluate your opinions of Sean Avery, because Sean Avery the man is pretty fucking awesome. He's taken an unpopular stance on a civil issue - even though he has to work in what is literally a locker room and boy's club environment - because it is the right thing to do.

So if we're going to strip the negative light the F word sheds on homosexuality, then fine, let's do it: Sean Avery may carry a purse and intern at Vogue, but he makes every other NHL player look like a fucking faggot for not joining him in LGBT support.

If the rest of the league had the same stance than I'd agree. I'm sure we all agree that we're talking about Avery the NHL player, not his person as a whole.

Bro your turning a hockey argument into a national cuase. If you think you gay men have a tough life what would you have if you lived somewhere else in this world where you get stoned or beheaded for being gay. Its a hockey arguement and Avery shouldve fought him if he thought he was being put down, If i had a nickel for everytime i was called a guinea of a whop i would be rich and my life is just fine. Be a man about it and this all goes away Avery is a bitch and if i offended any dogs i apologize.

And oh yeah like myself i dont agree with this cause and i'm sure many hockey players dont either so why would they join a cause they dont believe in. Open your eyes to any other points of view but your own.

No, you guys are turning hate speech into hockey, as if prejudicial comments about race and sexual orientation are okay just so long as they're made over frozen water.

 

[SLY]

If any of you are truly expecting a penalty or fine out of either player... No wonder this league is going to shit. This is hockey, we talk shit on the ice. Intensity makes you say shit. You really think Avery is going to kill Giroux? I think we all know what he means. Use your fucking heads. And as far as racial slurs and the use of the word faggot, grow a pair of fucking balls. I am the least bit offended when a black person calls me a cracker. I expect them to feel the same way when the tables are turned.

The banana incident, that should not be excused because that is not a part of professional sports. Talking shit is.

I am open to other points of view, but you'll understand if I never quite grasp the concept behind the discriminatory ones.
