However, I haven't really seen a scorecard of what came to fruition as a result of such warnings.<br /><br />I've seen a couple of changes - no crosstalk, dropping the Ticker tease - but nothing that I would consider worthy of a butt fondling warning. Norm's still doing his thing. The Musers are still intact. Corby is still over-Corbying the Hardline. BADD is returing from a triumphant East Coast swing with the Stars. No real changes in the JV or weekends either.<br /><br />So, what have we been holding on for? Can someone please catch me up?

In. <br /><br />As a dyed in the wool Stars fan let me say first and foremost I am glad on days that I have to venture west and north that 96.7 is part of the arsenal. <br /><br />Not quite sure what to make of the Sedin twins imbroglio. Stars did the PR standard and handed out the non-denial denial. Standard practice is standard. <br />Yeehaw Van got some radio coverage out of it. Made the hockey news too. It fits the normal narrative of Texas as being homophobic. Truth and whatnot beside the point.<br /><br />Anybody that has been here since last week probably knows my political tendencies. I should not need to show my card. <br /><br />I didn't see a whole heckuva lot wrong with it. Yeah, with some minor stretching it could have been construed as a homophobic slant, but it could have just as easily been construed in another direction. We know the participants. I have no reason to believe that they have been hostile towards the LGBT community in the past or present. This was a joke gone astray? I can't think of anybody less hostile to the gay human, whether in sport or not, than Dan. If he is the goat in this, they have missed the target by miles. <br /><br />They got points where they didn't expect to and lost where they shouldn't have. Jinx? Got double shorty too.
