It’s going to a LONG, LONG time before the Isles add to the payroll. Nobody moves for Charlie or the Isles, nobody. So sad how meaningless Isles hockey has become. There’s 100-120 loud vocal die hards, the rest of LI couldn’t give a rat’s tush about the Isles and man does it show!

LOL, David, where did you see Kate Murray talk about squirrels? I must have missed it but I want to read it.

Way to go long islanders! Why in the hell did you vote for this women? She lied about the offer to Wang 4 years ago and who the hell knows what else she’s lieing about. It seems like she is a bitter old betty who has never liked sports so she couldn’t care less about the Islanders. She obviously doesn’t see the big picture. The lighthouse project has more to do with bringing something exciting to ALL long islanders than it does with what it will do for the team. It would be a feather in her cap if she were to allow this to happen because it would put the town in a surplus for the first time in years and would create many jobs that would in turn boost the local economy. And I feel like I’m in the twighlight zone listening to this women! There are so many positives to getting this done and all she keeps talking about is the traffic it will create and the possibility of a few squirrels losing their homes! WTF?! The people in here standing up for her are equally annoying. If the Islanders move IT WILL BE KATE MURRAYS FAULT AND HER FAULT ALONE! I will be the first one with a pitch fork and torch in hand as we storm her house, who’s in?!

CB, wouldn’t you think that Nassau would try to push this through as fast as it can? I mean, there’s a lot of people, especially construction works I know that do not have jobs because of the suffering economy. This project would create so many jobs..

And I noticed how much Colliton likes to throw his body around.. A couple games ago he threw about checks in about 10 seconds. I really like the kid.
I haven’t really noticed Gervais at all the past few games.. It might be a good idea to bench him.

CB, are you aware of any trade rumors? 8 men with one-way contracts.. Competition is good, but I think it would be difficult for a player to sit 5 or 6 games, then be ready to play when called upon.

Preaching to the choir, CB! That’s the sort of invective that might light a fire under someone’s ass. Great to hear commentary and not partisan meandering on an issue that is sure to heat up in the next 8-12 weeks.

(I only deal in NHL injury timeframes)

To think anyone actually voted for this bimbo is hard to believe. Hope she’s happy when the Islanders are forced to leave.

Baumbach threw her a bunch of meatballs and thus we’ve learned nothing further about the project. Except the fact that it’s probably a lot further away from being a reality than anyone cares to admit. That being said why in the hell didn’t he refute any of her answers? For someone in her position, shouldn’t she have been held more accountable for knowing what the hell is going on here? It’s all a bad joke.

Heh, I didn’t mean for my Palin comment to start a political war – I actually voted for Mccain, so I wasn’t taking a shot at her – my only point was, and this is where we leave the political realm, references like “That NHL guy” have no place crossing the lips of an elected official, in particular one who should be intimately involved with the goings on in the NHL, since the Islanders, more than any other NHL franchise (save for maybe Edmonton and Calgary), are defined by their locale and are the only act in town.
Let’s forget about this crap for the night and go out there and smoke Pittsburgh.

I wrote to Murray I believe Nick connected me to that site. I signed a petition and wrote a couple of other letters from other sites as well. I did not fill out one of those cards though. I’m usually rushing into the game, always seem to be time constrained. I will fill one out now! I know I(we) can do more, just feel like I’m not doing enough. I know someone had a bumper sticker idea which I didn’t think was a bad one. Just wondering if anyone had some different ideas maybe approach it from a different way?

good answers, bad answers, b.s. answers, political answers… at least we are getting some answers now and not silence
