Gretzky

He's innocent enough is enough. The Media is trying their best to hang an innocent man. After criticizing Gretzky since "Operation Slapshot" was announced, there has been news that Gretzky's explanation has been confirmed as true. But where is the media outrage that he was falsely accused. Oh the deafening silence. I just love how American sportwriters are calling for him to stay home because he would bring disgrace to the Olympics.

Yeah... right... what about all the claims from almost every country that the Americans have knowingly cheated by using steroids and masking agents for who knows how long, yet they can look down at one of the most Internationally respected athletes of our time from their dirty little pedestals.

People will jump all over the one word that I wrote from the last paragraph "claims". Yet all we have on Gretzky are claims that he did this, that, or the other thing, what was it again? Oh yeah that's right, never placed a bet. Yes I'll probably hear about Ben Johnson and his steroid use but I'll match that with Ross Rebagliati and his weed use. They cancel each other out.

How would people have reacted if the situation was Jerome Bettis a few days before the Supercrap? The so called feel good story of the NFL season.

All I know is what comes out in the news, and so far they mentioned everone around Gretzky, without naming Gretzky. So that tells me that the NJ State Police are searching as hard as they can to find anything with Wayne's name on it so they don't have to field questions about how two of their very own have been caught up in this. Ahhh The old Bait and Switch, I love that gig, fools stupid people every time and the media have definetly been fooled.

Anyways Go Canada win one for the Great one.

Yeah, you go girl!! Gretzky is the man. It sure looks like he's gonna get away with it. Sweet. The great one becomes, "the sly one." Noone suspects a thing. Now noone will ever know about his child labour chain in northwestern Indonesia. No wait, none of that's true at all. I guess I'm watching too much ABC. My bad. CBC rules!!! Go Brian Williams!!!!
