Roberto Luongo

LET’S BE CLEAR…
TALK IS NO LONGER CHEAP…
LET’S START WITH ROBERTO LUONGO…
ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT…THE CANUCKS BLEW A ONE GOAL LEAD WITH 15 SECOND LEFT IN THE THIRD PERIOD AND LOST THE GAME IN A SHOOTOUT…
IN THE POST GAME INTERVIEWS…ROBERTO LUONGO WENT OFF ON A RANT…WHICH INCLUDED THIS GEM…
“IT’S UNACCEPTABLE…IT’S INEXCUSABLE…THAT SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN…WE JUST PISSED AWAY 2 POINTS”…
IT’S GOLD JERRY!!!…GOLD!!!
THE NEXT DAY LUONGO REFUSED TO BACK DOWN FROM HIS COMMENTS…
“I DON’T THROW MY TEAMMATES UNDER THE BUS”…
“I TAKE LOSING SERIOUSLY AND I DON’T ENJOY IT…I WANT TO BE THE BEST AND WHEN I LOSE I AM NOT A HAPPY CAMPER.”
MORE GOLD…
SINCE THEN A NUMBER OF THE CANUCKS HAVE PUBLICLY STATED HOW THEY NOT ONLY AGREE WITH LUONGO’S STATEMENTS BUT HOW MUCH THEY SUPPORT HIS RIGHT TO SAY THEM…
AS A RESULT…THIS MORNING LUONGO WAS ON THE FRONT PAGE OF BOTH SPORTS SECTIONS OF THE VANCOUVER PROVINCE AND THE VANCOUVER SUN…
ONE HEADLINE READ…”MAN WHO HATES TO LOSE”
THE OTHER READ…”WORDS OF WAR”…
NOW HOW DO YOU PUT A PRICE TAG ON THAT???
THEN THERE’S ALEX BURROWS…
THE NHL HAS NOW FINED BURROWS UNDISCLOSED AMOUNT FOR HIS COMMENTS TO AARON DOWNEY BEFORE THE DETROIT GAME ON SATURDAY…
DOWNY STARTED THE INCIDENT BY THREATENING BURROWING DURING THE WARM UP…
BURROWS RESPONED BY ASKING DOWNEY HOW HIS POTATO FARM WAS DOING…
TURNS OUT…DOWNEY REALLY DOES HAVE A POTATO FARM…
YESTERDAY BURROWS ADDED THIS LITTLE GEM…”HE PROBABLY LIKES THE FRENCH FRIES THE MOST BECAUSE HE’S A LITTLE CHUBBY”…
DESPITE THE NHL FINE BURROWS INSISTS…HE IS NOT GOING TO STOP ALL THE TRASH TALK…
FOR THOSE KEEPING SCORE…
TALK DOES HAVE ITS OWN CURRENCY IN THIS BUSINESS…
NO MATTER WHO’S DOING THE TALKING…
ITS NET VALUE IS ALWAYS DIRECTLY PERPORTIONAL TO WHAT THAT PERSON HAS WON…
