Farewell to the King

 


While I have spent waaaaay too much time on social media today, pointing out what a piece of shit Donald Trump is...I have had moments of distraction...Not just keeping up on my kids virtual schooling, but also because my favorite hockey team, the New York Rangers bought out the last year of goaltender, Henrik Lundqvist's contract... 

Lundqvist spent his entire 15 year career with the Rangers after he was picked by them in the 7th round of the 2000 draft...In those 15 seasons Hank racked up 459 Wins, 64 Shutouts, a .918 Save Percentage and a 2.43 Goals Against Average...His stats have him in the all-time elite NHL goalies, and he will undoubtedly be a first ballot Hall Of Famer...

He also helped lead Sweden to an Olympic Gold Medal in 2006 and Silver in 2014...

Lundqvist was the heart and soul of the Rangers team during his time their...He fell in love with living in New York city and became the face and spokesperson for The Garden of Dreams Foundation...They work with Madison Square Garden and it's tenants putting on numerous charity events and have a "Make-a-Wish" like program for sick kids...In 2014, Lundqvist and his wife founded the Henrik Lundqvist Foundation...A non-profit organization that focusses on health and education for children and families....The HLF is an international grantmaking organization with  partners in New York City, Sweden and the Dominican Republic....

Henrik loved living and playing in New York and loved being a Ranger...When the team made it clear they were going to start a rebuild and move some pieces out for draft picks a nd prospects, Lunqvist said he wanted to stay and see it through...That's the type of heart and soul of the team guy he is...Now the Rangers have two, young, stellar, Goaltenders as well as young, talented, depth on the blueline and a handful of elite forwards...As well as this years #1 Draft Pick...

I understand the business move and the fact that he is a 38 year old goalie and you have two guys in their 20's ready to go...But I keep looking at this COVID world we are in and the uncertainty of how next season will go and I wonder if carrying three goalies might be good idea...Also, as fan I really wanted to see King Henrik finish his career as a Ranger and get a Cup as a Ranger...

Rangers-town will miss him dearly...

COVID 19 (Blog 2)


Another day, another fucking idiot....


Many people have strong political opinions, myself included...And we all think our opinion is right...The thing is, mine is! Yeah, that's an arrogant, dickhead thing to say...But I try to keep it honest here...

Today we are going to talk about these idiot fucking protesters...Protesting the stay at home orders...It started in Michigan and Wisconsin and Virginia and more and more have been popping up...I love that we live in a country that allows us the right to peaceful protest...The thing about these protesters...Like this bitch above...They're saying "My body my choice"....A statement they vehemently fight against when it come to abortion rights....

I get it, staying home for a month sucks...Not working and not making money sucks...You know what else sucks? Dying...Your loved ones dying...add to that, you can't even have a funeral for them...And if you want to try and throw that Sweden's using "Herd Immunity" to beat it, they aren't...10% of Sweden's cases have died...So fuck you, you're stupid! 

Think about 10% of the U.S. population dying from this...Staying at home isn't that bad now, is it?

Let's get back to the fucktards in Michigan....


These dumb mother fuckers thought a great way to protest was to start a gridlock in front of a hospital...You know, prevent ambulances from getting in...Preventing staff and sick people from getting in...These Confederate Flag waving fucking assholes are the same fuckers that bitched about "Black Lives Matter" protests that slowed and stopped traffic...These are the same types of rednecks that ran down peaceful protesters with cars...


Funny seeing the double standards hard at work...I'm willing to bet if "Black Lives Matter" protesters showed up fully armed with AR-15's and sidearms and extra magazines in their vest, they would have been surrounded by SWAT teams...You're fucking being told to stay home to not get sick and not get others sick, and you're crying like a bunch cunts...

I get it, you're fucking stupid...So here are some facts...People can carry this virus for 2 weeks without showing symptoms...That's two weeks of unknowingly spreading a horrible, killer virus...There areas where 70% of the population are carrying it and don't even know they have it...So stay home asshole!


But what is making things worse is while many governors were leading the charge for Social Distancing (the magical catch phrase that appeared out of nowhere) and on shutting down non-essential businesses, the idiot President and his merry band of health officials, lead by VP Mike Pence who is well known dragging his feet as governor of Indian as HIV was spreading like wildfire...Dragging his feet just as the Trump administration did with COVID-19...


But the Nazi's and rednecks and stupid fucks are standing by their boys Trump and Pence...And even as his COVID-19 taskforce lead by Pence has been onboard with the stay at home orders, Trump was tweeting "Liberate Michigan"..."Liberate Wisconsin"..."Liberated Virginia"...Just adding fuel to the fire...Giving his full throated support to protesters to go against his orders and they are doing in close crowds, without masks...spreading not only their fucking stupidity but also their fucking germs...

My wife for years has told me not to wish harm on people...not to wish death on people...and actually as this virus has spread, I have tried hold those urges in...But honestly, the best thing that could happen to these idiot fucktard protesters is that 33% of them die from COVID-19....Because fuck them, Fuck Sweden and fuck any American waving a fucking Nazi flag and fuck the idiots waving the Confederate flag too...

Bunch of fucking fucks!
