Loading ...…Bristol quoted me.
You all know how I loathe Bristol and everything they stand for because of their long-standing feud with my team–but they quoted me in the latest issue of Bristol the Magazine under #26 of the ESPN100 for 2006, right next to Mr. Hockey (which in itself is ironic, because the man finished his career playing for the team whose latter-day incarnation I barrack for).
For those who don’t get the mag, the quote was from this entry from July:
Valo[u]r. I can’t think of this man without that word coming to mind[, not after 2002]. It’s right up there alongside other words used in connection with him: class, dignity, and respect.
The parts they chopped are in brackets. I was going to keep things on the down-low until a few people mentioned it to me either in my commentbox or via IM. So yeah, Bristol quoted me–and they even confirmed with me that I’m a Wings hater even though I said nice things about their now-retired Cap’n.
It’s official: I’m a media whore.
Hey, hey. Congrats. What context is the quote used in? That is, is it used to say, “look, even Wings haters loved this guy,” or just general praise?
The lead-in was “…all of rinkworld took notice”.
I suspect a Bristolero was lurking and found my quote, then decided to use it.
Frist NHL.com, then the magazine that is owned by the company who used to broadcast hockey- what’s next?
Eh, it’s better than the other kind of whore.
Cammers!! Rock on, babe!
Rockin’ the media whoreness (is that a word?) - way to go!
Always, always brag about stuff like that…it builds character…
IFrist NHL.com, then the magazine that is owned by the company who used to broadcast hockey- what’s next?
Commish.
