Astonishing.
Wow. How is it that once I've whittled down my resentment for him to just that he deserves for leaking his trade demand and then fucking off to Mexico, Pronger manages to make an ass of himself again. No doubt the Canadian media hates him because... they love Edmonton so much? They dislike gap-teeth? They think his chinstrap is perilously loose?
Later in the same scrum:
Which explains why every time he hits a guy, the guy's head gets plastered into the boards. Right? Right?? No doubt he's never had a chance to adjust his hitting style to, say, accommodate his height difference.

Mars is indeed the one that is peanut-free. And has the prominent logo to trumpet it.

re the Mars bar incident: "we are very pleased that they now recognise the importance of integrity to all their customers, especially vegetarians,"
gee, if only all companies were so inclined...
especially for vegetarians...
not as though integrity is important for the rest of us schmucks...
you know, I don't know if the Canadian Mars group is following the same rules or not... there were no "peanut-free" labels on the Mars bar, or is it Mars that did that? maybe it was Nestle... hmm... still... nice to know those Brits recognized the importance of integrity... finally (I mean, really, what about before? integrity wasn't a problem???)

Afraid of cancer? Giving up hope makes it worse:
Niederdeppe and colleagues analyzed a National Cancer Institute survey that asked people whether they agreed with three statements about cancer. About 47 percent of those surveyed agreed that "it seems like almost everything causes cancer," while 27 percent agreed that "there's not much people can do to lower their chances of getting cancer."What's that you say? All the stories trumpeted in the media about how wine/beer/asparagus/jumping-jacks/pirouettes/etc. simultaneously prevent and cause cancer aren't helpful? They actually confuse people? And confused people ignore sound advice on avoiding demonstrable risk factors?
Most of all, Americans are confused, with 71.5 percent agreeing that "there are so many recommendations about preventing cancer, it's hard to know which ones to follow," researchers wrote in their report, published in the journal Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention.
People who agreed with at least one of the three statements were less likely than others to exercise weekly and eat five daily servings of fruits and vegetables, said Niederdeppe and colleagues.

"The league should make its own calls, not be pressured into anything by the media, and more to the point, the Canadian media."
-- Chris Pronger, on his suspension

Later in the same scrum:
"Of course I'm going to hit him in the head," Pronger explained. "He's quite a bit shorter than me. It's just law of physics."
