there is a lot of really good works from Dylan that never hit mainstream



IMO the best works from guys like Dylan and Young never sniffed the radio


same for guys like lou reed, orbison, croce, bowie, etc etc

Yeah I don't even have any of his songs past 1973. When it's an artist like Dylan that's been around for so long it's hard to get through everything they have

I don't want him here, but I think the league should look into what's going on in Toronto. I know he deleted the comments he made and all that, but something isn't right. If the league actually did it's due diligence like they should, they would investigate it regardless of his retraction/apology.

The problem is they don't want to know. Because if there were shenanigans they'd have to do something about it. The Kovalchuk thing happened in public, so they had no choice. "Don't upset the apple cart" seems to be Bettman's M.O..

That's why he won't be put on LTIR, because then the league HAS to get involved. I'm pretty sure the Leafs have something on him. Simmons is an idiot for the most part, this whole thing stinks

But at this point it is public. Lupul PUBLICLY posted to twitter that there was something going on. Yes, he then later deleted it, but it was out there for all to see.

Hey lots of people hate buffalo but with his age I think it would be just right for him it's a place to settle down and have a family

Not for the young

WTF does that even mean?

A lot of people say that.

It makes no sense.

There are tons of bars, we have 2 "Big 4" professional sports teams, the Bandits, The Bisons, water for boating, snow for skiing/snowboarding, there're even beaches, such as they are, super cheap cost of living, lively neighborhoods, concerts and live music all over the place, very good to great colleges, tons of jobs... Seriously, what more could a young person ask for?

That's true, but the spin has already gotten to it. "He's joking.", "He has sour grapes.", "If there was something really wrong he would've filed a grievance.".

Great food, I should've added. Not kale. Stuff that you feel terrible about eating at 3am.

My guess: the Leafs said "nice salary you have there, it would be a shame if something happened to it"

And threatened to void his contract based on lifestyle, the way the kings did.

Again, the league should still do their due diligence. It just reinforces that the goings-on in the league are shady.

If we did something like that, the league would be investigating it no question. But because it's Toronto they're just gonna stick their heads in the sand and pretend it didn't happen.

Take my house, nothing extravagant. 4 bed 2 Bath.

I pay $2,000 a year in taxes, It would be $7,000 a year if moved to NY/Hamburg area.

over the course of 15 years I bank an additional $75,000. Just in property taxes.

Property taxes are things people never consider.

Again, this is where I am and the area is relatively new, ~ 15 years ago didn't really exist and going through a massive expansion.

I totally agree with you that they should. I was just saying why they won't. At least until something more than a social media post comes out.

How dare you. Tronna can do nothing wrong. Did you see their thread just after the Lupul loophole was announced? It was worse than a global-warming hit piece penned by "scientists" hired by Exxon/Mobile.

More than half of that is school taxes.

Which is funny because their private studies showed it was actually true. Oops.
