ok, so it comes out. this was all a game from the get-go. "you take this side, i'll take this one." that makes it a little easier to swallow but still, strachan's points are so childish, off-the-wall, confused and desperate that it makes it clearly appear like an argument for the sake of an argument. that's a total waste of time, imo. you guys can find something else to do.
even buffery's column is bizarre: "Al, this rebuttal comes from a guy who loves hockey, a guy who lost his front teeth, broke two shoulders and suffered numerous other ailments playing the game we love." is that supposed to prove his love for ice hockey? "i love hockey because i lost my limbs on the ice."
i'd love to eat right now because i just ate.
peace
