BC Women's Hockey '14-'15: #SOAR

Re: BC Women's Hockey '14-'15: #SOAR

I don't know that it is fair to call a player out like that, might be better to stick with "the most interesting player in the world"

Her passport requires no photograph.

When she drives a car off the lot it increases in value.

She once brought a knife to a gun fight ... just to even the odds.

Her signature won a pulitzer.

and for when she visits BU... Panhandlers give her money.

Dammit...that last one is gold...
 
Re: BC Women's Hockey '14-'15: #SOAR

In any case, the mood on the women's forum is typically quite relaxed. I know that there are all sorts of political and sports forums out there where the norm is to get belligerent on every other post, but this isn't that type of place. We are all fans of the kids who play the game. That's why we are here. Once in a while, someone will post something derogatory about a player. When that happens, you'll know it; you won't have to make it up.

Reading and acknowledging this should appear under a "Terms of Agreement" section for all forum posters!

Marie-Philip Poutine is TRES LAME-O and THE MOST OVERRATED PLAYER IN COLLEGE HOCKEY.

Having said that I do have an NHL card of her that I would like for her to sign for me.

People are seldom serious when they are being humorous, although from your post, maybe humor is a foreign concept to you. This isn't the first time that hyperbole has been used to describe a player on this forum, although I'll hazard a guess that Ms. Keller is more talented than the previous cases I remember. Nobody is getting trashed, and I doubt anyone else read the post in question and thought it was a slight of Ms. Keller.

Just to finish the process of overexplaining the joke: upthread, sheagle008 claimed (http://board.uscho.com/showthread.p...Hockey-14-15-SOAR/page2&p=5983997#post5983997) that Keller was "the best incoming freshman defense-woman in the nation". The flat-out certainty of the statement struck some of us as amusing and started a forum injoke of making extravagant claims about Keller (Grant suggested that the National team should play a Keller-Keller-Keller forward line with Keller-Keller defensive pairing, I nominated Megan Keller as top team in Hockey East this year, etc). FiveHoleFrenzy's post is just continuing that joke. No offense is meant to Ms Keller herself.

The funny thing, of course, is that USA Hockey clearly agree with sheagle008, as Keller is the only incoming defender who made the National Team Evaluation Camp. And having seen her in action there, watched her in the U22 series, and talked to other people who've followed her more closely, she really does seem to be an exceptional player. Looking forward to this year. Hope to see you at the games, Ted -- I'm the one with the 8yo daughter in a Skarupa jersey.

Well said. Keller has the talent and she is part of a very good recruiting class for BC. No question about that.

I should also say that I am working my way towards being a moron, but in order for me to be a "complete" moron, I will need to resort to calling other posters names and hoping that I "meet" them at the rink.

... just like they thought Jincy Dunne was better than Rachel Ramsey, Blake Bolden, Lisa Chesson and on and on.

Exactly. I would say neither she, or McMillan are ready for prime time, though the experience of these camps doesn't hurt.

You're already there 5. The thread may seem like a joke to you (and others)but to someone just signing on would turn them off the blog. Too bad you can't understand that. You can try to justify it to yourself that it's just a joke. It's a bit old and bordering on obsession. I wouldn't think the Keller family would be too happy with your new obsession. Maybe I'm wrong and they are already reading but I doubt it.

Please tell me I'm wrong.

Aw man Teddy you're killing me. Haven't you ever heard of Chuck Norris jokes? People tell Chuck Norris jokes because Chuck Norris is a badass, not because they're making fun of him.

You're wrong. A person just signing on (I see you've been a member since March 2013) would go back through the posts and understand that everything was said in a good-natured way. The posters don't think the thread is a joke but there is nothing wrong with keeping things a bit light-hearted. If you don't like that kind of a forum, then gather up your toys and go home.

You still mad, bro???

Here, I'll make it plain for you. Calling a poster a POS and wanting to "meet" them at the rink is moronic behavior. That's were YOU are wrong and please don't do it again.

All of the people you are disparaging for their off - season (and possibly off-color, but certainly not malicious) comments have been contributors to this forum for YEARS, and meet and greet regularly when our teams play each other, because we all share a common respect for the game and the players. If you learn to lighten up, you too can be a member of this community, if not, maybe you should visit another forum or start your own thread. Your disclaimer could be that all forms of humor or camaraderie are prohibited.

It will be a long 4 years for you if you try to clean the grease of a well oiled machine;)

I guess I was wrong then...

You may notice that the off season banter is founded and fueled by desperation for hockey to begin again, and sometimes is reduced to gibberish. I assure you that when the first puck drops, the game face will be there!
