Can we just celebrate 2 players that brought us joy, were fantastic to watch them play and how well they played the game?
Why do we need to share our negativity and make it about where they are from, and where their politics may lie. Emphasis on the word "May".
The negativity and left wing bias on this board sickens me sometimes.
It is an amazing feat to do what Ovi and Gretzky did, no matter where they are from and who they may side with,
I share your concerns about the political negativity, and I've tried - unsuccessfully - to root much of it out. It's virtually impossible to eliminate it entirely, as I've discovered to my dismay. But with a federal election on, it's also impossible to keep away from it, especially in areas like funding for the CBC, political commercials and defunding PBS and NPR in the States are concerned, since those are broadcasting stories that do have a place here.
Unfortunately, it sometimes wanders off that into something else. It's a delicate balance and I also agree that both sides - left and right - are so polarized no one ever seems willing to listen to each other and there's little tolerance for an opinion some don't agree with. I personally like to hear both sides when I listen to a radio talk show, although it's often more a single opinion than an actual debate.
Hopefully, when we get past April 28th, it will die down a bit. - although there's still another four years to go before things improve down south. Take a deep breath and keep on truckin'. It will get here eventually! And know that we'll never be the 51st state. After all, where would that put that extra star on their flag?
