I may be hoping for too much. What I can control is how I treat everyone else and how I will or will not respond in the future. A little courtesy would be appreciated. No more and no less. As an aside, I wonder if those who prefer to criticize if you would be that bold in person or frankly if you would post under your given name. Just a thought.... It is one thing to judge and far another to back it up, read and respond to me or others with your actual name.

With this comment, I am done responding here.

Carla...Don't let it bug you...the vast majority of people (me included) love reading your blog.

Maybe OP's 'LGK award' is going to his head. I'm sure that award is right up there with his 'thanks for participating' certificate he received for playing AYSO soccer when he was seven years old.

There is a reason why Rinkrat puts your articles on the front page of LGK.com, so keep them coming.

Thanks for reading!!! I really appreciate everyone here, starting with Rinkrat and others who enjoy my blogs. .... :heartsm:

For what it's worth I'll stop making negative comments. I was only responding with an opinion based on what I had seen after having it bought to my attention by other King fans on LGK.

As a Duck fan on a Kings message board I expect that I'll be given the short end of the stick damn near every time so I'll acquiesce this argument for now. The only point I was trying to make was that in my opinion, and in the opinion of others, CM was offering opinion pieces but standing by them as if they were gospel truth. The only thing anyone on LGK has to offer is an opinion. The moment that we pedestal ourselves to the point where we stubbornly stick to our opinions by dismissing the opinions of others is when people will take exception. It's not just me...that's just human nature. So, if I am willing to let this go (and to be honest, I don't really have a choice) then perhaps a more open mind can be had by others when listening to opinions from other LGKers.

Just my .02

ps....The Natural.....no worries man. :) and uh, your avatar really creeps me out

I heart Carla Muller.

Okay, so if people don't agree and it starts a discussion, isn't that what we're here for?

I don't always agree with what she writes, how she writes it etc.

I tried to discuss it with her and all I got were smiley faces.

If she didn't write it like it were the 'gospel truth' I might not take offense. She claims to know whats right/wrong with this team. So does Hockeysistah and everyone else here in LGK land. Unless she has some secret relationship with the team, then she doesn't 'know' whats right or wrong. And I can go find her response to me one night where she said thats all she's trying to do: provide an answer. Whats right and whats wrong to this team.

No one cuts anyone any slack around here.

I'm done responding to her posts. I'm pretty much the only person who does anyway.

ETA: Shes now on my ignore list so that her posts don't pop up for me. I'll leave poor Carla alone.

I don't think Carla cares if you're a duck fan or not. I think all she's asking for is a little respect. The same respect you want from the King fans on this site.

By the way, she's on a pedestal because Rinkrat put her there.

I've read all of her posts and the LGK responses to her posts, and I don't see the George W Bush esque 'it's my way or the highway' attitude from her.

By the way, you do have a choice. You either click on her article or you don't.

So what' s wrong with the Kings?

I'm sure Carla is absolutely crushed that her only fan put her on the ignore list because she only got smily face responses. :grin:

By the way, there is very little truth in the gospel.

Did you and OP get together and decide that 'gospel truth' would be a good phrase to use in reference to Carla's posts? :deadhorse:

Please put me on your ignore list too.

Gospel truth was just a good word to describe it. You can't have a conversation with her.
Its great that someone wants to write about the team, but don't expect everyone to agree with what you write or not to respond. When I ask legitimate questions, I got empty answers and smiley faces.

She cried 'no respect' and thats when I stopped respecting her. So, the next time someone on LGK disagrees with what I type, can I cry no respect?

Because you're hurting my feelings CP4ID. I don't like the disrepect. :(

I have an opinion. I guess I can't express it here. I can't disagree with someone who writes something here without it being described as a cat fight.

I'll remember that when CBGB expresses his disdain for the team, management, coaching staff etc in another one of his posts and people disagree with him. He's got a case for 'no repsect'.

Hello
I am a Kings fan by marriage. We live back in my home state of Louisiana (just moved back here last year from L.A., where my husband is from). Before him, I didn't know one thing, and cared even less, about hockey. But, now I AM ADDICTED. I have been following them for 4 years now and I remain hopeful - my husband says that is because I haven't followed them for the last 30. Anyway, we have to watch all of the games on center ice and last week my husband was out of town and missed the games. A few games ago the telecast showed LaBarbera in his routine during the national anthem. I got a kick out of this and have looked for a video of it all over the internet. I was hoping you had some footage of this. I hope this isn't bothering you but I read all of your blogs (and 99% of the time, you are spot on-I think MC is a goner). I have never posted to any site about anything and am still unsure how to navigate around. Any direction you can give would be great on the video.
For some reason, I feel quite hopeful tonight. By the way - Dustin is my favorite. To have such a sweet face (I could almost be his mother), he can surely "stick" it to'em.
