FYI, you don't see his name there because the entire first column (players 1-20) is chopped off on the left in that graphic.

I think it's a lighthearted reference to them not being allowed to drink caffeine. I didn't get it at first either.

Thanks. I can see that. I work in software and if I was to take a few years off, I'd be rusty too. For high level competition, you probably do need to be doing it year-round.

Some people just can't be wrong. And then @mkAz brings in a new link that hadn't been in this thread yet and has the nerve to say I missed it. Just admit you were wrong and there are/were no criminal charges.

I don't know enough about hockey...why did he have to go to St. Thomas? Or is St. Thomas good for hockey? I have no clue on the divisions or anything, but I thought he was highly regarded in high school. Did he just mature faster than his peers and wasn't all that good really? Basically, why...

No, you simply saw a post or two making a simple criticism of ONE specific church and you took it way too personally and then made an assumption about the poster that isn't even true. Nice work. Normally I agree with a lot of your posts. EDIT: now I get it. You have some previous experience...

Where did it get anti-religion? Please explain. I am 100% a Christian. I was making a comment about my personal experience growing up in a catholic environment and someone else posted something to confirm my statement. It's not even "anti-Catholic" it was just a criticism. If you criticize...

Yeah. I *think* there was one catholic church (among hundreds) in NE Mpls growing up and they had a minimum donation to be a member. St. Charles?

Did I really? Here's a quote from the OP's link to the original article: I guess YOU missed the details regarding pending charges because there weren't any.

As someone who also grew up catholic and went to the associated school for K-8, I'd say they care more about your financial contributions being active than you being sexually active. Not a knock on catholics personally, just an observation.

"It's funny" how you come into almost every off-season thread and comment about how the thread topic shouldn't bother/concern us.

With what hanging over is head? The fact he had pre-marital sex? Pretty sure almost every one....

Yeah, at some point they just need to call it a gimme and leave it at that. Similar to the force-out in baseball, where they invented it to stop the silliness of a player running around and avoiding the first baseman's tag. Baseball is easier to watch because of it. I'd prefer to get rid of 2...

You serious Clark? Man. I mean, I don't even drink coffee, but if I was out with people who love it, I'll try some. How can any grown adult wanna abide by such silliness??? How they even get one non-Morman to play for them....

Gotta give ya credit, some posters would have doubled-down and tried to explain things away without admitting they made a mistake. Message boards would be better if people could just say they errored every so often.
