But I believe that this is the beginning of the end of the Islanders....and the one to blame here is the TOH and Kate Murray. Ridiculous (enter standard pro Lighthouse arguement here, which I support BTW)<br />But unlike the Dodgers of 51 Years ago the blame will not be put on the owner....hope you enjoy your job as the TOH supervisior, you are not going any further than that!!!islanderbillhttp://www.islandermania.com/index.php?showuser=639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6420070021149211641.post-85745730315147744102009-10-04T02:28:59.748-04:002009-10-04T02:28:59.748-04:00Sometimes I genuinely cant believe Kate is where s...Sometimes I genuinely cant believe Kate is where she is in politics. Why does she do the stupid things she does? I mean yeah everyone can say that there are political motives but WTH political motive is served by:<br />Demanding that paperwork be thorough and complete<br />Not even bothering to read said paperwork<br />Refusing to negotiate with developers<br />Calling the developer to negotiate at the last minute<br />The developer tells you he is willing to talk and asks only that it must not be a media fest<br />Then immediately blabbing everything to the media.<br /><br />WHAT does that help? HOW does that help HER? How does that help LI? Why must these stupid ******* games continue?<br /><br />And speaking of political BS, was there a too-little-too-late democratic showing at the game today, as rumored? I have seen no mention of the elusive opponent or her alleged plans to talk to people before the game.TheMetalChickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06627766622392257867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6420070021149211641.post-55009696954981899372009-10-04T00:19:37.674-04:002009-10-04T00:19:37.674-04:00I got a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach.

Ain't happening. Unless she has some specific ideas to throw out, its just to cover her butt for when the time comes that he says the Isles are leaving.

I mean, is there someone else currently posting that uses your or a very similar name and utilizing your writing style? <br /><br />I ask because I know there was a real problem with that kind of thing on the old Newsday site (I experienced it myself). And I ask because your posts confuse me... what you say here (that the LH is definitely going to happen, no compromise etc) is completely different from what you say over on hockey independent (Wang just wants a way out and to blame kate, he doesnt want this project, you hope the TOH calls him on his bluff, etc) If these are all indeed you, your opinions swing like a pendulum and I do not understand it? So- is this all you? And, if so... huh?TheMetalChickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06627766622392257867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6420070021149211641.post-90360724548588694182009-10-03T12:15:07.203-04:002009-10-03T12:15:07.203-04:00And BTW....see you at the game...

(and Kate wins her election).<br /><br />Just my opinion....from two time zones away.Islander505http://www.islander505.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
