Teema: Senior Canada National Team

Season 49:
Congratulations senior team on a 4-2 win over Austria. Next up, Estonia, who beat us last season 2-0, despite our winning convincingly in almost all categories.!!??

A 3-1 win over Estonia has us in first place overall.! Next up, a tough team from the Netherlands.!

Today, 5-2 over Netherlands. Tomorrow Belgium.

Today a 4-3 SO loss to Belgium leaves us still in first place, with Estonia and Bosnia/Herzegovinia close behind us. They play each other, and we play Ireland.

A 3-1 win today over Ireland keeps us in first place. A win tomorrow over Norway would clinch our move back up to Division I.!!

Great season so far!

A 2-1 win today over Norway guarantees we will go back up to Division I for next season.!!

Some may say "Bullshit", but I am actually a very nice person. I promised I wouldn't come back on here, but I can't sit back and let others tell things that are simply not true.
I just read nkullar's last election speech before the vote. Now I believe I have had some form of communication with him, and I don't have any problem with him. But I have a pretty big problem with the speech. Two points:

1. Here are the final election speeches from last year's election -

nkullar - "Not really interested in doing it. But I threw my name in there just in case no one else shows interest."

Samuel Carrier (other candidate) - "After discussing with nkullar, he will be the one to try this new experience along with Bobby Jay as AGM. Please vote for him"

Okay? But you're running the team, yeah? And he posts updates for (all) the Canadian teams (really) but you nkullar is really running the team? Okay? But obviously there isn't much reason to believe that...

2. This is much more important. Nkullar mentions in this year's speech: "And yes Bobby Jay may have been Assistant in the 3 previous years. But noone has the right to attribute the poor results to him. Assistant is not the same as Manager. The fact of the matter is somebody else was in charge, not Bobby Jay."

If anyone reading this remembers, last season I went ballistic because the Senior GM wasn't using my guy Junior Harvey, the 12th best OR in the land. I, too, showed good faith that the GM listed was running the club and pointed the rifle at Samuel Carrier. Here is his reply, copied and pasted:

Tell that to bobby Jay. I don't manage the team. I just signed up to not leave the team empty. I did the moves he wanted me to make and left the rest for him.

But I see you are still as petty as I previously remembered. Shame.

Classic aye? Right from the horse's mouth. Nkullar, your point about Bobby Jay running the national team for 18 seasons IS THE POINT! That is why he SHOULD GO! If you REALLY ARE running the senior team, why don't you fire that idiot and prove it! Then I don't have to put your words on the chat boards, and question the integrity behind them...

Sounds like your REAL problem is with me.!! And yet I have been here, season after season, sport after sport, to lend a hand, or lead if necessary. Not even you can match my willingness to support our national teams, no matter what the sport. I have been a "rookie manager" on perhaps every national team this country has, and NEVER had a season of forfeitures like we experienced this season in the U20 hockey, when one of your sacred "others" ran and won. You don't have to vote for me, or even like me, but you show your true colors (apparently mostly green) when you choose to criticize me and those who would support me.

Yes Bobby, my real problem is with you. You have come to that conclusion, in good time. Yes you have been here "season after season", and that is my problem. We've been through all of this many times now. Nobody gains experience when one individual runs all of the teams.

I am tired of you Bobby, and I am tired of seeing the same old face running the entire Canadian program. I have asked you politely to share some of the toys. The days of my politeness are over.

Did you actually read what I wrote above Bobby? I am not going as far as to call nkullar a liar, but I want him to admit the truth. And I want the voters to know the truth. Your friend Samuel Carrier was the one who told us all the truth Bobby. That's what he said to me Bobby.

Is something wrong?

Roedb

Oh, by the way, I am sorry. This really isn't the time. I should be congratulating you (and nkullar) for saving the Senior team from the basement of PPM international hockey. Because the team wasn't put in the cellar because of anything you did Bobby. No, that was Samuel Carrier, or so I understand. So let me take the moment to personally praise you for all the work you do. Thank you for saving Canada!

Roedb

Lol. Go to bed Paul. Your promise to stay away from the boards was a most welcome promise. Stop breaking your promises. We all like it better that way. Keep polluting your jetstar's mind and leave our boards alone.

What's wrong Samuel? Are you regretting sending me that snarky little email now? Are you unhappy that I shared it publicly?

Well that's too bad Samuel. I might be a shitty little person for doing it, in your mind at least. But that isn't half as shitty as you asking Jetstar to be on your friends' list, so that you could go and attack him in front of his own choice of companions, yeah? Because that's really low man, and certainly isn't what the "Friend" function on PPM was for.

This long, middle-finger piggy in your face is for you.

Roedb

After you did that Samuel, Jetstar said that you come across like some weasel that smiles to your face and then backstabs you. I agree, because when someone uses friendship as a trick to attack someone then they are obviously a shitty little person.

I don't nned email or private message forums to attack you Samuel. I will do it right here. I don't like your private messages because they are ugly and nasty. I don't like the way you put on faces and then knife people in the back. You are a shitty person and I will say it right here.

I told Jetstar I would stay out of this but screw it. People like yourself deserve no better.

Lol. I don't care that you posted the message. I am not ashamed. Everybody should know that I didn't want to GM the NT that year and only signed up last minute so we wouldn't go GM-less. It's no secret.

Also get your facts straight. Jetstar sent me an invitation to become friend. I didn't know who he was, but what's the harm? I accepted, only to see his vicious little PaulRoedb disciple messages.

Its quite telling that, instead of answering my concerns, he just went ahead and unfriended me. I guess discussion and having a different opinion is not welcome in Paul's cult.
