Oh, word

Stevie there was controversy while you were gone that you can settle

What is worst, being homeless in the streets of Philly in the winter, or being locked up in a Philly city jail?

 

[Stevies]

I'd say the streets because the cold just kills you.

Close though. A lot of douchebags in jail to make it close.

 

[MrX]

Dammit Steves.

Stevie there was controversy while you were gone

I believe there is also controversy when he isn't.

 

[Dingo]

Can’t remember the comedian but his joke was he walked up to the biggest, nastiest prisoner(dramatic pause) and …..sucked his cock

RIP legend

• Mike Bossy
• Born: January 22, 1957
• Birthplace: Montreal, QC, CAN
• Shoots: Right
• Draft: 1977 NYI, 1st rd, 15th pk (15th overall)

Didn't even realize Bossy a Montreal guy. Knew he was great but now looking at his stats Bossy was better than great. Only subpar year was his last in 1986-87. had to look up he retired young (30) because of his back and knees. Guess in my mind quietly left the game.

Checkout these stats, it's mind boggling ......

OMG first George's TV mom dies and now Jerry's mom say's goodbye. Is there any other Seinfeld cast members up in age ready to go? It's happens in threes.

Mike Bossy was an analyst on French/Quebec TV. It was always mind-boggling to see him, possibly the best pure goal scorer of all time, sitting there next to some hacky local TV reporters. I'm actually emotional over his death, the guy was a regular part of my hockey-watching landscape. Sharp and funny guy too.

I trust that the Habs are going to do something good tonight before the puck drops.

Watch that shit boys. Montreal knows how to celebrate.

Sounds like this is hitting you like Roy Halladay's death for fiveteamer.

Listening to some local guy on CTV now talking about Bossy.

Carey Price he said back in the net tonight.

It's on TSN in English, RDS in French. I have no idea how you would go about watching either.

They didn't do much of anything at Bell Centre, just the classic moment of silence. The pre-game stuff was emotional, guy was everyone's friend in hockey broadcasting.

I get all the TSN channels ..... saw the video tribute for him and showed one fan with his Islander jersey. Reading more about Bossy everybody did like him and though not a Canadien player still was a Montreal favorite son. His goal totals in the minors were absurd.

 

[Dingo]

RIP,grew up watching Bossy play,guy had such a quick release and always found a way to get open.Looks like Bryan Trottier is the only one left from that line as Clark Gillies died earlier this year
