He can do backflips!!

That's not a wallride.

MMA, hunting lacrosse, etc. I'm sure have their own problems that are equal or maybe even greater than the issues in hockey. I just find it sickening how some people get so wrapped up in the competition of the game that it no longer becomes enjoyable, ie. fights, bench brawls, shouting matches, and just general uncivilized behaviour. If you looked back at early hockey, it is apparent that the level of skill was certainly lower, but the players were a lot more civilized and didn't jump at every opportunity to body-check, punch, slash, or fight their opponent.
I'm sure I could keep on ranting, but I think my point is clear, so I'll leave it at that for now.

You dumbass. Stick fights used to be common. Bench clearing brawls used to be common. When players fought, and one guy went to the ice, it used to be commonplace for the other guy to pin him to the ice and beat the shit out of him. The first ever organized indoor hockey game ended with a fight between players and spectators.

The game right now is more civilized than it has ever been.

It's kind of awesome.

I'm pretty sure those pictures of Dale's just made me decide to start riding mountain bikes again.

its funnier to watch Brian foam at the mouth at the bmx radness on a MTB forum all the time.

mega troll action. again funny.

I bet he goes on the mac forums and yaps about pc radness, or viceversa.

I like it cuz he kinda looks like a troll, or maybe a 1978 wizard.

Aren't you like 40? Why the fuck do you care?

We have done the same in international waters. Funny how people are getting self righteous about the IDF boarding in international waters. Yet our country has done the same- boarding foreign vessels in international waters.

I recall the Aussie SASR doing the same a few years ago on a container ship as well.

If I remember correctly, the fishing vessel was boarded for using illegal methods.

Both side are screwed on this one.

It's not like these "aid workers" were behaving peacefully. Sure looks to me from the video that they were determined for a fight the second they soldiers repelled from the heli. Gas masks, vests, blunt objects. They even tossed a soldier off the boat while the next closest guy was pummeled.

The activists claim that the IDF over responded… :dizzy:

I've been reading that after shit kicking some of the commandos, the aid workers then pulled the sidearms from them and emptied the clips into the group of soldiers. Although properly armed, the Israelis were sporting paintball guns (at least they kinda tried).

Really, to reiterate what has been said, what do you expect by pulling this stunt? (referring to both sides) The IDF has a pretty clear record on shit like this. While they did know that the lead boat held 500 people determined to fight for what they believe in.

Stupidity begets stupidity.

They got boarded in international waters. Of course they tried to fight them off, just as they had the right to do. The IDF are completely in the wrong for boarding a vessel in international waters, where they have no jurisdiction to do so. This didn't happen in Israel.

DA BOMB had better have made it in here.

Also Kona's whole "over overbuilt" thing. Like, well, couldn't you just build it correctly in the first place instead of taking something not strong enough and just slapping more metal on the joints?

I invented ceremonies.

I've seen some "stylized" performances of other national anthems, what's the big deal?

The big deal is that doing that sucks.

Fiddler mohawk tribal guy
The big grand finale fucking up

Nelly Furtado lacking any sense of context
Stephen Harper not showing a single emotion the entire time
