What crazy draft picks have left you scratching your head? And aside from Paulie whatIDK, I hear you. Bad FA signings, crazy draft choices, and the extension to Murray has everyone scratching their heads.

Dollar Dave has done one thing: keep the team in St. Louis. Bully for him. Everything else has been a tire fire. So we're saying that he gets the benefit of the doubt because his check didn't bounce?
The Dish Network mess isn't the Blues' fault... and you're right - he's not one of the worst owners. FAR from it. So let's give the man some credit and some time, eh? He's owned the team 3 years, and has hit his first 3-month rough patch.Nyghtewynd wrote:Irony calling, line one.BF44 wrote:Maybe a guy like the late Bill Wirtz, who wouldn't even show home games on local TV?Nyghtewynd wrote:So the Blues are in great shape because Dollar Dave owns a soccer team, and JD knows what he's doing because...well, people say he knows what he's doing.

The guys who write the Game Night Revue had this one exactly right: do you think the Cardinals would allow the same situation to take place? Not for one bloody game they wouldn't.BF44 wrote:The Dish Network mess isn't the Blues' fault... and you're right - he's not one of the worst owners. FAR from it.

OK -- who do you wanna piss off? The network that pays you to broadcast their games, or a company that pays you advertising dollars? The Blues are caught in the middle, and they don't have the political weight that the Cardinals do...Nyghtewynd wrote:The guys who write the Game Night Revue had this one exactly right: do you think the Cardinals would allow the same situation to take place?

So they chose to anger a significant amount of their fanbase who buys their tickets. They chose who they're going to screw, and it's us. They're betting that it won't cost them any ticket money. I guess we'll see.BF44 wrote:OK -- who do you wanna piss off? The network that pays you to broadcast their games, or a company that pays you advertising dollars?

There will also be a much bigger uproar among st. Louisians for the cards than the lowly, old blues, but we will see.Nyghtewynd wrote:If the Cardinals allow the same thing, I'll apologize. I doubt they will.

If it gets bad enough; sh*t, shoot the f*cker at the goalie's crest. You just never know when a bounce can happen or a goalie can have trouble handling a puck. May only be one in a hundred shot but when you're only getting 16 on goal a game, I'd say fire away, there's not too much bad that can happen from that.ProngerBlues44 wrote:Tell that to "I can't hit a barnyard" Boyes.fargoblues wrote:note to the list above: Shooting the puck on net is preferable to just shooting the puck.
