Right. It's just odd to me cause, even though the interwebs is a pretty small place, there are probably a couple other hockey forums out there one could join. And a 3 month ban seems terribly excessive for a little hobby site.

expect your ban post haste.

Yes Sir... Should start banning IP addresses.... I could picture people setting up a lawn chair at the Office Depot house computer if that was the case.

They aren't that advanced. They once thought I was 2real and when he got banned one day, I commented something about it because he was IMing me, and I got a 3 month ban... But I fought that one.

Or on friendly terms with some special people...

You're too close to revealing his information. 2000 year ban!

I deserve a warning first!

It is. If you don't believe a thing Eklund/Garth write, forget that Sam Woo ever existed, and agree that the Patriots aren't a Boston team, it's a pretty good site.

Plus, there are some good bloggers here, some fans who really care about their teams who are absolutely hilarious. The Edmonton forum has some really insightful fans -- emotional about where they are and have been. The Ottawa forum, with Travis Yost, has interesting usage of advanced stats. The Toronto forum is filled with people who truly care about their favorite team...it's just a fun site to interact with people.

Well, he DID score those two goals in those two games and...

......Ah, I can't even properly troll you with this. That signing sucked.

Shelley's two most notable on ice achievements were scoring against the Flyers in those last two regular season games in 2010.

I miss Cloutier's trade proposals (from his sources).

"...and really, we're doing Nashville a favor by offering Klefbom and a 3rd for Weber."

Right there with Steve Eminger's amazing Game 4 goal.

Thats pretty much why people are here. Bill is a very good writer and the threads are fun. I rarely ever visit for rumors.

I missed the whole thing. I always thought he was pretty level-headed...extremely opinionated (like most here), but level-headed. So I'm a little bummed I didn't get to see the meltdown that lead to an epic banning.
- wolfhounds

I wish I was there too. As much as he and I go at it, I wouldnt wish a 3 month ban on anyone. At the end of the day, we all have to realize who the real bad guys are.... THE REFS!

Ha! Yeah -- that, too. It's interesting to find out what fans think of how their team's players and prospects are performing, as well, if you take that kind of stuff seriously.

Doing them a favor…Thats when you know its a bad trade proposal.

Nobody is listening to you anymore, "Philly" SportsGuy.

How long were you a cast out?
- wolfhounds

My original was 1 month and the post was litterally step by step procedured for how one person the the site wins an arguement. Normally I take my bans like a man, but a few of them I have fought, and this one turned from 1 month, to 3 months, to 1 year.

Yeah. Go back to New Jersey with your Uncle Daddy fan club!

Shelley was also the inspiration for this video:

Also from that video, they make fun of Berube a little bit.

No, that's not awkward now at all, is it?

I love when he gives a rumor then backtracks in the same post. "Hearing whispers of Philadelphia and Ryan. Not saying a trade is eminent, but there may be discussion."

His most infamous one was his "Hearing Philadelphia and Toronto are in discussions. Definitely not about JVR for Schenn."…Minutes later JVR is traded for Schenn.

He offset that with the Richards to LA trade. Blind squirrel...nut...etc.
